E-commerce · Safety & PPE

A mask is only the right mask for the dust, the fume or the spray it was chosen for.

Respiratory products carry the heaviest caution in this section. The right choice depends on what is in the air, how much, for how long and who is wearing it, and the buyer's safety adviser makes that call. A seller's page cannot make it for them, and should not pretend to.

A 90-minute audit call and a written, scored report. Turnaround, reporting and term are agreed in writing after the audit.

In one paragraph

Respiratory protection e-commerce is the selling of disposable masks, half-face and full-face respirators, cartridges and filters to plants, paint shops, laboratories and construction sites. GullySales builds pages that match each product to the work as the maker describes it, and follows each sample and reorder, since the buyer's safety adviser makes the final choice.

What a page can do is be exact about what the product is, what the maker says it is for, and what the buyer needs to bring to the decision. It can also make the reorder easy, because cartridges and filters are consumed and replaced.

Last updated 7 Oct 2026. Product, labelling and advertising rules for safety & ppe differ by product and change. We describe them in general terms, so check the current position with your own adviser or the regulator before you publish a claim.

Who it is for

This is written for you if you sell respiratory protection online.

  • Distributors of disposable dust masks and respirators for plants and workshops
  • Suppliers of half-mask and full-face respirators with matching cartridges and filters
  • Sellers to paint shops, foundries and chemical stores who reorder cartridges
  • Dealers who supply masks to hospitals, laboratories and cleaning contractors

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • Sellers who plan to tell a buyer a mask will keep out a particular dust or vapour. That claim belongs to the maker's documents and the buyer's adviser.
  • Suppliers who cannot show where a product came from and which maker's cartridges fit which mask. Buyers will not risk a mismatch.

How buyers choose

What decides the sale of respiratory protection.

  1. The contaminant and the work

    A buyer states the work, such as grinding, spray painting or chemical handling, and the safety officer picks the type of product. A page that matches products to work as the maker describes them is found.

  2. Disposable or reusable

    A disposable mask is bought by the box and replaced often. A reusable respirator takes cartridges and filters that are changed, so the buyer asks about cost per wearer and availability of replacements.

  3. Fit and comfort

    Face shape, facial hair, breathing resistance and heat in a mask decide whether it is worn. Buyers ask for sizes and for samples to try, and any fit check is for the buyer's adviser to arrange.

  4. Cartridge compatibility

    Cartridges and filters are specific to a mask. Buyers ask which fit, how to store them and when the maker says to replace them, and they want the answer from the maker's sheet.

Where sales are lost

What usually goes wrong when you sell respiratory protection online.

In the words sellers use on the first call.

  • “We sold the mask and the buyer reorders cartridges from someone else”

    Cartridges are where the repeat sale is. A reorder page that lists which cartridge fits which mask, and a number for the store, keeps that business.

  • “The buyer asks which mask will stop the fumes”

    Answering with a product is a risk. The honest reply points to the maker's sheet and to the buyer's safety adviser, and offers to supply what the adviser specifies.

  • “Disposable masks compete on price alone”

    A buyer sees two boxes at different rates and cannot tell why. Showing the maker's description, the sizes and the packing explains it.

  • “Orders spike for a campaign or an audit and then vanish”

    Demand for masks follows events. Recording which sites bought, and calling before the next shutdown or painting season, makes it less lumpy.

What we do

What you get for respiratory protection.

Each deliverable and what it is there to change.

  1. A respirator and cartridge compatibility table

    Each mask against the cartridges and filters that fit it, taken from the maker. It prevents an order for the wrong part.

  2. A buyer's checklist for the adviser

    Questions to bring when choosing a product: the contaminant, how long it is worn, who wears it. It shows the buyer you understand their position.

  3. A maker's data library

    The maker's sheets for each product, downloadable, so a safety desk can file them.

  4. A store reorder sheet

    Each plant's masks and cartridges with the date of the last order. The next call starts from the sheet.

How the result is measured

  • Qualified enquiries
  • Quotation requests
  • Sample requests
  • Follow-up on each quotation
  • Orders won
  • Cartridge and filter reorders

Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.

How it works

From your first message to the first report.

No open-ended retainer. Every step gives you something in writing.

  1. First

    Free audit call

    90 minutes with whoever handles your enquiries: how they arrive, how fast they are answered, where they are lost.

  2. After the call

    Written, scored report

    Six areas scored, fixes ranked by return and cost. If you want our help, the scope, the fee and the reporting come with it, in writing.

  3. Before work starts

    Baseline recorded

    Enquiries by source, reply time, conversion and cost per order, written down so every later report has an honest comparison.

  4. After the baseline

    The first fix goes live

    Usually the cheapest one on the report: reply time, a follow-up sequence or the marketing-to-sales handover.

  5. As agreed

    Report against the baseline

    What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words. How often you get it is set in writing before work starts.

  6. At renewal

    Renew on the numbers

    The term ends and you decide whether to continue from the results. The length is agreed in writing before anything starts.

What we need from you

What to have ready before the audit call.

None of it has to be tidy. We read what you have.

  • Your range of masks, respirators, cartridges and filters with the maker's sheets
  • Which cartridges fit which respirators, from the maker
  • Sample sets you can send and the sizes available
  • A list of current buyers with what each uses
  • Your supply source and authorisation for each make

Selling in India and abroad

Selling respiratory protection beyond your own market.

Where you sell decides sizes, units, seasons and returns. We work from Bengaluru and have no overseas office, so for a new country we start from your own sales and the platforms you already use.

  1. Approval is market by market

    What a buyer abroad may use is decided by their own authority. A page for them should state the maker's marking and leave the local requirement to the buyer and their adviser.

  2. Expiry and storage on the way

    Filters and cartridges carry the maker's storage and shelf-life information. Transit time and conditions matter, so check them with the maker and your forwarder before inviting foreign orders.

FAQ

Questions about selling respiratory protection online.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Can I recommend a mask for a buyer's work?
Do not recommend one as the answer. Share the maker's description of each product and tell the buyer that the choice is their safety adviser's. Offer to supply what the adviser specifies.
How do I keep a buyer ordering cartridges from me?
Make the reorder easy. List which cartridge fits which respirator, hold stock and give the store a number. Then ask the plant when it expects its next shutdown or work peak.
Do I need to explain how a mask should be fitted on my page?
Link to the maker's instructions and say that fit checks and training are for the buyer's own safety adviser. Do not write your own method on the page.
How much does it cost?
There is no price list, because the work differs by business. The fee is scoped in the free audit and put in writing before anything starts, split into our time, your media spend and production.
How long is the contract?
The term is agreed in writing after the audit, along with the fee and the reporting. It is never a default twelve months, and renewal is decided on the numbers against the baseline recorded at the start.
How soon will we see results?
Fixes to reply time, follow-up and your Google Business Profile are the quickest to show, because the enquiries already exist. Ads can follow soon after follow-up is in place. SEO and content take longer. How long each takes depends on your business, and the audit tells you which applies to you. Nothing here is guaranteed.
Who will actually do the work?
The person you meet on the audit call. We work from one office in Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru, with no account managers in between.
What do you need from us?
For the audit, last month's enquiries in any format and 90 minutes with whoever handles them. After that, access to the accounts the work touches, such as the website, Google Business Profile or CRM, and time for the review meetings.
What if we are not happy with the work?
Tell us and the plan changes. Everything is reported against the baseline, so a number that is not moving is visible to both sides. The term is in your written scope, and the refund and cancellation policy sets out the rest.
