AVON PROTECTION: MP-PAPR (Multi-Position Powered Air Purifying Respirator)

The Avon Protection MP-PAPR™ represents a major departure from traditional rigid PAPR systems. It is the world’s first flexible CBRN PAPR unit, constructed from field-proven chlorobutyl rubber—the same durable material used across the Avon 50 Series respirator family.

Designed to reduce user burden while increasing protection and comfort, the MP-PAPR delivers a compact, lightweight, and highly adaptable solution for sustained CBRN operations.

Suitable For

• First Responders

• Military

• Special Forces

Key Features & Benefits

• World’s first flexible PAPR unit

• Chlorobutyl rubber construction for durability, chemical resistance, and flexibility

• Compact, low-profile design for improved integration

• Active airflow provides cooling, reducing heat stress

• Lower pulmonary stress compared to non-powered systems

• Reduced physical burden during extended operations

Modular Integration & Wear Options

The MP-PAPR’s unique shape and flexible construction allow it to be mounted in multiple configurations, enabling seamless integration with existing equipment and mission-specific loadouts. This flexibility maximizes wearer mobility while maintaining high levels of respiratory protection and overall well-being.

System Compatibility & Certification

A comprehensive certification set allows the MP-PAPR to be:

• Integrated with existing Avon 50 Series APR systems

• Configured as a combination PAPR system (Avon CS-PAPR)

• Reverted back to an Avon EZAir configuration as operational needs change

This modular approach ensures long-term adaptability across evolving mission requirements and fielded equipment.
