Respiratory Protection Equipment Clyype

In professional 3D printing environments, especially those using Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) or Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS), operator safety is essential. During material loading, printing and post-processing, workers face exposure to fine powders, metal particles and suspended micro-particles, which can penetrate the respiratory tract and pose long-term risks.

Comprehensive respiratory protection with Clyype

Clyype is a respiratory and facial protection device specifically designed for industrial 3D printing environments. It combines safety, comfort and sustainability, offering advanced protection without compromising ergonomics or operational efficiency.

Certified safety for demanding environments

Its bidirectional filtration system purifies both inhaled and exhaled air, providing protection against aerosols, ultrafine particles and metallic residues, with 99.8% efficiency (TH3 level). The full hood covers head, face and neck, preventing direct contact with dust and other contaminants, without interfering with vision or mobility.

Clyype is certified according to EN-12941 and is undergoing registration as a dual product (industrial and medical), ensuring traceability, manufacturing quality and compliance with the strictest occupational safety standards.

Assisted ventilation: comfort and natural breathing

One of Clyype’s key innovations is its assisted ventilation system, which maintains a constant flow of purified air inside the hood. This enables natural breathing, eliminates respiratory fatigue and prevents visor fogging, ensuring clear and precise visibility, essential for handling parts and materials in 3D printing.

Its ergonomic design adapts to the head without pressure and is compatible with safety glasses, helmets and hearing protection, offering freedom of movement and comfort throughout the workday.

Sustainability and durability

Clyype is designed to be reusable, reducing non-recyclable waste and promoting a sustainable work model. Made with Fanotex technical fabric, water-repellent and antistatic, it protects against moisture, dust and metal particles, also complying with EN 13795 for surgical environments.

This ensures consistent and controlled protection in industrial and high-precision environments.

Advanced protection for 3D printing (SLS and DMLS)

In industrial 3D printing processes, polymer or metal powders may remain suspended, posing cumulative respiratory risk. Clyype acts as an active and dynamic barrier thanks to its assisted ventilation, keeping the internal air clean and safe.

The operator can move between handling, printing and post-processing stations without removing the hood, preventing accidental exposure and cross-contamination. This improves collective safety and increases workflow efficiency.

Comfort, ergonomics and productivity

Beyond protection, Clyype improves worker productivity and well-being. Its lightweight and balanced design helps maintain focus on repetitive or high-precision tasks, making it an essential tool in additive manufacturing plants and laboratories.

Clyype: uncompromising safety and comfort

Clyype redefines personal protection in industrial 3D printing, integrating assisted ventilation, advanced filtration and ergonomic design into a single device. It is the perfect solution for those seeking maximum safety, comfort, sustainability and operational efficiency in SLS and DMLS environments.
