代顿,哦——狮子第一响应者PPE, Inc . largest family-owned manufacturer of first responder personal protective equipment (PPE) in the United States has opened a seventh TotalCare facility at 1600 West Dartmouth Avenue, Denver, CO 80110. TotalCare represents LION’s high-quality fire gear maintenance services, including PPE repair & retrofitting, advanced cleaning, decontamination, biohazard disinfection, advanced PPE inspection and now, RedZone™ CO2 Cleaning.
LION TotalCare® is leading the way in providing innovative solutions for the fire service with RedZone™ CO2 Cleaning powered by Tersus Solutions, available exclusively through LION TotalCare®. The opening of this facility marks the first fully-verified ISP in North America verified to meet all NFPA 1851 requirements around conventional advanced washer extractor cleaning, advanced inspections, gear repairs and CO2 cleaning. CO2 cleaning technology raises the bar for first responder gear cleaning. Infrequent, conventional water-based cleaning of fire PPE is limited in its ability to remove a large percentage of carcinogenic contaminants that can become trapped in protective fabrics. Using RedZone™ CO2 Cleaning processes and equipment, more than 95% of carcinogenic poly-aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and other contaminants are removed from gear in contrast to the 50% removal threshold that is specified in the current NFPA 1851 Standard using traditional water cleaning methods.
“With RedZone™ CO2 Cleaning, LION is proud to offer another innovation to the fire service that goes well beyond the minimum standards that are currently in place,” says Mark Smith, President of LION Americas. “Just as LION’s RedZone™ particulate blocking turnout gear set a new bar for particulate protection, we can now offer this breakthrough technology that offers unparalleled cleaning for all brands of turnout gear as well as other PPE such as hoods and gloves. We continue to invest in technology like this because we want all firefighters to have access to services that mitigate the risks they encounter on the job.”
The new 6,859-square-foot facility expands LION’s gear cleaning and maintenance services to cover the Western United States, while RedZone™ CO2 Cleaning is available nationwide. For more information, visit www.lionprotects.com/totalcare.
