Israeli PAPR Hood for Toddlers and Children Ages 2-8 - Powered NBC Air Filtration
The Supergum Quartz child respirator hood, also known as Mamtak, is a complete powered air-purifying respirator (PAPR) system designed specifically for toddlers and children from ages 2 to 8. Originally developed by the Israeli Ministry of Defense and issued to all children during national emergencies in Israel, this is authentic civil defense equipment built to protect young children against CBRN and NBC airborne threats.
Unlike a standard gas mask, the Supergum Quartz uses a full hood with a powered blower that delivers clean, filtered air directly inside. Children breathe comfortably with minimal effort, and the transparent hood keeps them calm and visible to parents during stressful situations.

We keep it partly assembled so we would not have to start from zero under stress. Very parent-friendly design.

We made the first practice a game because I did not want my daughter to associate the hood with fear. She could see me through the front, I could watch her expression, and she started laughing about looking like an astronaut. That reaction made the whole experience much easier than I had expected.

We practiced putting it on while cartoons were playing. By the second try she knew to sit still and let me lower the hood over her head, which made the process easier.

The hood worked well when we practiced with it. My main surprise was the size: it takes more storage space than I had pictured from the product photos.

The clear front is excellent. We can see her expression and she can see us.
The mask seems well made, but I am still struggling to get the rear straps comfortable around the back of my head. I am keeping it, although the fit has not fully convinced me yet.
