Blauer Serious Protection Logo - Hazmat Resource, Inc.The challenges confronted by present-day first responders diverge significantly from those of the past requiring much higher performance from their protective clothing and gear. Hazardous industrial chemicals and materials find application in an increasing array of industries, and their storage and transportation span the entire planet.

Today, first responders are required to uphold operational readiness for CBRN incidents, aligning themselves with dedicated HAZMAT teams and military personnel. This is in response to the targeting of hazardous chemicals and materials by terrorist organizations, considering them relatively accessible tools of mass destruction for deployment in densely populated civilian areas.

Homeland Defender® ensembles, crafted with GORE® CHEMPAK® fabrics, provide the confidence essential to fulfill duties in the most severe CBRN environments.
