The application
Firefighter helmet
The helmet protects the head against possible injuries during firefighting action. The inner part of the helmet absorbs fire chemicals and sweat, which are difficult to remove with standard cleaning products.
Firefighter hood
Protects those parts of the head and neck which are not protected by the breathing apparatus and helmet. Only a clean and laminated one properly protects the respiratory tract area against harmful substances.
Fire intervention suit EN469
Protects against fire, water and harmful vapours. The safety of the firefighter depends on the functionality of all the layers of protective clothing.
Firefighter gloves
Made of fire and heat resistant material with a waterproof membrane, they enable efficient fire fighting and assistance in difficult conditions. They are constantly exposed to various hazardous substances and microorganisms.
Firefighter pants
Freedom of movement and cool comfort in the most demanding conditions on the Fireline.
Firefighters boots
They protect feet from chemical and biological contamination as well as damage and injury. However, many hours of service, exposure to moisture and heat promote the growth of bacteria and fungi in the boots. This results in unpleasant odour and the risk of skin diseases.
