    In an era where innovation is the norm, an icon of respiratory protection is being revived: the VanderGrinten air hood. More than a century ago, the very first VanderGrinten hood was born. In the decades that followed, the hood quickly won the hearts — and heads — of professionals in the Netherlands and Belgium. Although the original air hood has not been available for some time, many users have remained loyal to their unit to this day. As such, the VanderGrinten hood is not only a symbol of respiratory safety but also of a durable and reliable product.

    Improved protection, unchanged wearing comfort

    The timeless principle of the VanderGrinten air hood has remained unchanged. With its unique design resting on the wearer's shoulders, it eliminates the need for a traditional headband, allowing users to move freely inside the hood. High wearing comfort has always been characteristic of the VanderGrinten hood, and a great deal of attention was paid to this aspect during the development of the new version.

    By using the latest production techniques and high-quality materials, the renewed VanderGrinten air hood offers even higher protection than its predecessor. A reliable seal ensures that no contamination from the working environment can enter the hood.

    Whether it concerns protection against dust, chemicals or other hazardous substances, the VanderGrinten air hood is ready to take on the challenge and keep the wearer safe at all times. The VanderGrinten hood belongs to the category of independent respiratory protection systems and is connected to the compressed air network.

    As a symbol of durability, reliability and innovation, the air hood remains an indispensable part of the equipment of every professional who values their well-being and safety.
