At the beginning of the new millennium, in 2003, we broaden our offer to reusable respiratory devices: thanks to the acquisition of Tecnopro, an Italian manufacturer of full and half-masks with 20 years of experience in the sector.

In 2010 we acquired a facility in Barcelona, specialised in the production of high performance filters, completing our product offer: BLS Iberia was born.

In 2012 we crossed the ocean and landed in Brazil: to follow and develop the South American market we established BLS do Brasil in Curitiba.

In 2017 we launched the BLS NorthWest division in Rotterdam, to follow the growing market of BeNeLux, UK and Ireland, offering better service to our customers and strengthening our commercial presence in the Northern European market.

However our growth does not stop and in 2021 we founded two more sales subsidiaries, BLS France and BLS Germany, in France and Germany respectively, to further focus our development and presence in Europe and ensure constant and precise support for our customers.

Quality and innovation are the foundation of our path. The protection of people is the value that inspires us and that is why we continue to invest in research and development.

Our goal is to find cutting-edge solutions to meet or anticipate increasingly advanced needs in terms of safety and sustainability.

Our constant relationship with universities allows us to grasp and realise ideas that are always innovative, thanks to the creativity and support of fresh, young minds. These have led to the birth of projects that are unique in our industry, including our circular economy system, which includes reducing emissions, improving production and logistics processes, using recycled materials, converting waste material into secondary raw materials, and the launch in 2022 of the first IoT mask in the industrial world, which integrates protection, design, technology and comfort.

For us, the future lies in "comfort". Comfort is not a luxury, it is the way to improve the conditions in which workers operate every day.
