GearRx offers certified cleaning services for your valuable turnout gear |

The Symptoms
|
Turnout Gear absorbs smoke and body odors, while harboring bacteria, and other contaminants (chemical & biological) that can be absorbed through the skin. Overtime, exposure to toxins and pollutants can result in rashes, irritations and infections.
Other professionals, including EMTs, Police, Rescue Teams, Utility Crews and other workers who rely on special protective gear also face the same problem: How to maintain the integrity of their gear’s protective elements while eliminating the bacteria and contaminants that it is subjected to in everyday wear.
|
The Diagnosis
|
Your health and the efficacy of your gear are at risk. Studies have shown that firefighters' day-to-day exposure to chemicals, toxins, and carcinogens can result a long term health issues. If gear is not properly cleaned, thick layers of potentially flammable materials and hydrocarbons can build up on the outer surface of the equipment, placing you in danger if your protective gear ignites while fighting a fire.
|
The Treatment
|
Our cleaning system meets or exceeds all OSHA and NFPA 1851 guidelines for completely and safely washing and sanitizing gear. The patented technology holds items secure while hydraulically forcing environmentally-friendly cleaning chemicals through thick padding, foams, leathers, and other items that may be difficult to clean. The system will not deteriorate fabrics, reduce the effectiveness of reflective material or the waterproof/ fireproof characteristics of the gear, or damage hard goods, such as helmets.
|
The Prognosis
|
Proper cleaning and sanitation of turnout gear eliminates contamination, protects you, and keeps your gear in service longer.
