Protect Your Firefighters, Protect Your Mission.
Our proactive safety solutions reduce contaminant exposure, extend gear life, and provide clean, reliable PPE.
Turnout Maintenance - Simplified
Our Mission
At PSS, we've streamlined the complex world of firefighter personal protective equipment (PPE) management. As a full-service provider, we offer comprehensive testing, cleaning, maintenance, and management solutions tailored to fire departments' unique needs.
Why Choose Proactive Safety Solutions
Firefighters must routinely assess potential harmful exposures, such as fire, smoke, chemicals, and toxins. However, it is crucial to recognize that residual contaminants, which may remain hidden in personal protective equipment after initial exposure, can also impact the individual's health.
Practices related to turnout maintenance and care have evolved considerably in the fire service to improve cleanliness and reduce cancer risks.
Proactive Safety Solutions has developed a process to accurately assess firefighters' exposure and ensure that gear is safely decontaminated and verified before returning to service.
Firefighters Face Increased Operational Risk
Fire departments are increasingly challenged by the unique risks posed by lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery fires. These incidents require more firefighters and demand extended operational time due to the difficulties of extinguishing thermal run-off. Additionally, the byproducts from Li-ion fires, which include harmful chemicals, cannot be adequately removed through traditional industrial laundering processes.
Long-Term Health Concerns
Beyond immediate hazards like fire, smoke, and chemicals, firefighters face another critical risk: residual contamination in their Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). This contamination can persist even after the initial exposure and pose long-term health risks, including an increased likelihood of cancer.
Our Solution
We have developed an advanced decontamination process to accurately assess firefighters' exposure and ensure that PPE is thoroughly cleaned and safe for reuse. Our solution leverages cutting-edge methods, like CO2 cleaning and a multi-step industrial hygienist test, to target and eliminate contaminants and protect firefighter health. This process reduces risks and provides fire departments with a verified protocol to ensure their gear meets the highest safety standards before returning to service.
By adopting Pro-Active Safety Solutions, fire departments can effectively manage contamination risks, safeguard the health of their teams, and improve operational readiness.
