Dentec Safety Specialists Launches Comfort-Air Respirator
PRESS RELEASE
Claudio Dente, president of Dentec Safety Specialists, announced December 14, 2021, the launch of the Comfort-Air®Nx (industrial) and the Comfort-Air®NxMD (healthcare), the latest development half-masks for front-line worker applications. Now healthcare professionals and industrial workers can have both better personal protection and source control as the wearer’s breathing is filtered equally inhaling and exhaling.
“We have designed our Comfort-Air®Nx and the Comfort-Air®NxMD half-masks without an exhalation valve for workers who change out their disposables often,” remarked Dente. “These masks are reusable and can be sanitized after heavy use so there is no wasteful (and expensive) disposable mask to discard. Realistically, the reusable respirator can replace a dozen disposables per day, per worker or more."
This new-generation respirator may be used in place of disposable respirators to reduce cost and waste. Using the Comfort-Air®NxMD series respirator without an exhalation valve will reduce cost and waste by more than 70%–90%.
In addition to cost savings, the Comfort-Air®Nx and the Comfort-Air®NxMD half-masks can be fit-tested, then fit checked each time the mask is donned. Workers are better protected as the mask provides an airtight seal. Filters available are both N95 and P100. The Comfort-Air®Nx and the Comfort-Air®NxMD are NIOSH approved.
The Comfort-AirNxMD® respirator provides an airtight seal and filters the air when you breathe in and out, providing superior source control protection. The facepiece is made of a unique elastomeric formulation that provides superior comfort and eliminates face rash and acne associated with wearing disposable respirators and surgical masks.
Dentec Safety has ramped up its manufacture of masks in Lenexa, Kansas to meet the growing demands for respirators that protect against most contaminants. All raw materials are also manufactured in the United States. The Comfort-Air®NxMD is an North American-made product.

Headquartered in Ontario, Canada with a manufacturing facility in Lenexa, Kansas, Dentec Safety is dedicated to providing the highest-quality safety products and solutions, delivering enhanced value and comfort.
