#221 The solution to Decontaminating Firefighter PPE with Chris Colgan & HUNTER apparel solutions
Show Notes

The International Agency for Research on Cancer, a World Health Organisation body, has today declared that occupational exposure as a firefighter has been classified as carcinogenic

Firefighters’ personal protective equipment (PPE) has been proven to be a source of chronic exposure to toxic contaminants commonly released from fires.

Finally we have a solution to how to properly clean our PPE.  Hunter Apparel Solutions (Hunter) have developed next generation LCO2 decontamination and cleaning processes. Through their HunterCARE® Platinum Plus LCO2 technology they are making major improvements to the long term health outcomes of firefighters.
