S-line Fresh Air lashelmen met verseluchtset

Het kiezen van de juiste lashelm en ademhalingsbescherming is cruciaal om lassers in gevaarlijke omgevingen te beschermen. Hoewel het kostenplaatje een rol kan spelen, moet de benodigde effectieve en hoogwaardige bescherming altijd op de eerste plaats komen.

Things move fast in the welding industry and it's easy to forget about changing your particle filters. But sometimes small things can make a big difference. Let's take a closer look at three reasons why changing particle filters regularly is very important.

Rapid Welding has worked with Kemppi since the company opened in 1990. Co-founder and Managing Director Roy Edwards highlighted the principles behind that 36-year partnership, from choosing the right welding solution and supporting equipment throughout its life to addressing the skills shortage and finding the right place for automation and laser welding.

Welding safety has become increasingly demanding. The hazards at the arc remain constant, but modern working conditions mean exposure can accumulate over longer shifts and in tighter indoor spaces. As a result, welding PPE needs to be treated as both protection for the welder and proof of compliance. At Kemppi, welding safety PPE is designed and validated in practice through clear requirements, welder-led feedback, and verified compliance with EU PPE Regulation 2016/425, CE marking processes, and relevant EN standards.

Eurosatory 2026 highlighted a clear shift in modern defence manufacturing. While defence systems are becoming more digital, networked, and autonomous, their foundation remains physical. From armoured vehicles and artillery to industrial resilience, welding quality, steel structures, and production discipline remain paramount to defence readiness.
