Over 2.3 million Avon Rubber’s M50 respirators have been made. It’s the most advanced general service respiratory protection mask to date and the military’s choice with every serving member of the U.S. Armed Forces issued with one.

We solve the problems of today and shape the ideas of tomorrow… We designed the Queen Elizabeth Class carrier… the Royal Fleet Auxiliary’s Tide class tankers – currently in service… and are working with the Met Police on business transformation.
