Avon Technologies has secured a $10.8m order for respirators from an existing European NATO nation, placed through the NATO Support & Procurement Agency framework contract.
The order, won by the group’s Avon Protection unit, covers FM50 twin-filter air purifying respirators, FM61EU filters and accessories, and will support the ongoing modernisation of protective equipment for the country’s military personnel.
The FM50 is a full-face respirator built to NATO military requirements, offering lower breathing resistance and improved comfort to keep wearers in the field for longer, with continuous respiratory protection in hazardous environments.
Avon said the order further underpins expectations for its 2027 financial year.
Jos Sclater, Chief Executive Officer, said: “This new order highlights Avon Protection’s long-standing position as a trusted supplier to NATO and allied forces, delivering equipment designed to support both protection and operational effectiveness.
“Avon Protection supplies respiratory systems to 16 NATO nations under the NSPA framework, reflecting the increasing focus on modernising CBRN capability across the alliance. The NSPA framework provides a strong platform for repeatable demand as customers upgrade and standardise their equipment.”
