3M Scotchgard Anti-Fog Technology Helps Workers See Clearly, Longer

Workers can enjoy more reliable, clearer sight in humid conditions

3M has added its innovative Scotchgard Anti-Fog Coating Technology to two new safety eyewear models. The Solus 1000 Series safety eyewear and Goggle Gear 500 Series splash goggle now feature an anti-fog coating to help keep workers seeing more clearly on the job.

Excellent for workers in construction, oil and gas, and metal working jobs that require physically demanding tasks, the safety eyewear is designed to keep lenses clear of fog and steam – even when workers are in hot and humid conditions or climate controlled areas. The coating is bonded directly to the lens and retains its effectiveness for at least 25 washings, enabling workers to wear their safety eyewear longer.

“Seeing clearly is crucial,” said Javi Troncoso, marketing manager, 3M. “When workers have to remove their eyewear to clean and de-fog them, they expose their eyes to potentially dangerous workplace hazards and debris.”

3M offers a comprehensive, diverse portfolio of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) solutions providing respiratory protection, hearing protection, fall protection, reflective materials for high-visibility apparel, protective clothing, protective eyewear, head and face protection, welding helmets, and other adjacent products and solutions, such as detection equipment, monitoring equipment, and active communications equipment.
