A new design of hood for high risk chemical environments

The Willson brand of the Bacou-Dalloz Group has now become Sperian, a brand of the Sperian Protection Group.
Sperian is launching Opengo, an emergency hood for high risk chemical environments.

Opengo shows major innovation in terms of shape and design. This innovative hood is stored in a multi-positionable travel pouch. It enables great ease of movement in narrow spaces.

Due to its compact size and streamlined shape, Opengo is suitable for everyday wear in the work place.

The Velcro strip and zips on each side means it is easy to open. Opengo gives the wearer quick and easy access to the hood, which can be slipped on in just a few seconds.

The Opengo hood is vacuum-packed in an aluminum bag to protect it from the long-term effects of weather and variations in climate, making it safe for use for up to 6 years. Thanks to its exclusive and innovative folding, the visor and hood remain intact until the product is used.

The Opengo belt can be customized according to the wearer’s needs in his professional activities.

The Opengo hood is made from polyester, PVC and polyurethane, and provides efficient insulation and protection against chemical pollutants.

The Opengo “high visibility” hood enables wearers to leave the worksite more safely in an emergency by making them more visible.

Thanks to its 2 elasticated strips, the hood can be positioned automatically and perfectly on the wearer’s head. Due to the use of silicone, the neck seal is airtight and adapts to fit most people, thus providing optimum protection. The exhalation valve is carefully protected by a plastic cover that makes it safe and reliable for wearers. The panoramic lens provides a wide field of vision for ease of movement during an emergency exit.

Three models according to the nature of chemical risk:

  • Opengo ABEK1 for risks of chemical pollution
  •  Opengo ABEK1P3 for risks of chemical pollution with particles
  •  Opengo IPR for risks of pollution due to iodine or radioactive dust
