The Dräger X-plore 2100 is a reusable half mask designed for people
working frequently and for longer periods in dusty environments. With its
replaceable filters, the mask provides protection against solid and liquid
particles and is an economical alternative to disposable fine dust masks.
The Dräger X-plore 2100 achieves an excellent fit with leakage rates
much below those of conventional particle-filtering half masks (FFP).
The filters with protection levels FMP2 and FMP3 are characterized by
high filtration efficiency and, due to a large surface area, very low
breathing resistance, resulting in a long life time. more |

The Dräger Group achieved order intake and revenue highs yet
again in fiscal year 2005. Order intake rose by 11.3% to €1,696 million, and revenues by 7.3% to €1,631 million.
Both subgroups successfully expanded their positions in a number of key markets and achieved
substantial growth despite the increased pressure on prices. Compared with the prior year,
order intake improved in all the major regions. Europe, excluding Germany, saw orders increase
by 14.6%, Asia/Pacific by 12.5% and the Americas by 21.8%. Tough conditions on the German
market left order intake around the prior-year level (-0.8%). In the Americas and the Asia/Pacific
region, in particular, revenue growth was lower than that of order intake due to unrealized
revenues on some orders as of year-end. more |
