Fire department post-incident decon: procedure and equipment

If your PPE smells of fire smoke or soot is visible, assume contamination. The DGUV research project on cancer risk in firefighting identifies the skin as a relevant uptake route for PAHs. Under DGUV Information 205-035, you need to wash hands, neck and face immediately after doffing your PPE. Take care of this on scene, and carry-over stays low.

01Before the wash

Skin cleaning and protection

pak-ex and BarrierBoost go on the skin, Soot-X on boots and shoes. They go on in the yard, right after the call and before the drive back. The percentages for PAH removal are manufacturer figures.

  • Applied right at the truck
  • pak-ex in nine sizes
  • Ready to order
What stays on the skin

How much PAH stays on the skin after cleaning

  • Soap and water over 56%²
  • Wet wipes over 77%²
  • pak-ex under 4%¹

What this covers

  • Skin after the call
  • Hand washing in daily station duty
  • Skin protection before the call
  • Dry cleaning with the Water-Wipe

of carcinogenic PAHs removed, manufacturer figure per label

02Decon for your boots

Not much soot stays on the boot

After working the scene, soot sits in the leather and tread of your boots, and the skin is a relevant uptake route for PAHs. Soot-X lifts most of these residues off the material. What rides back in the truck carries far less contamination.

  • Minimizes contamination carry-over
  • Gentle on your boots and hands
  • Leather keeps its water-repellent finish
  • 500 ml fits EURO dispenser systems

03Washing at the scene

Mobile washbasin and wash point at the incident scene

The Basic brings the basin with fresh and waste water tanks and works independently of power and water hookups. The LAVextend requires an existing Basic and adds splash guard, paper towel dispenser, trash bag holder and two EURO mounts that keep the 500 ml bottle of pak-ex within reach. If you procure both tiers together, take the PRO, where they come bolted together from the factory.

  • Fresh and waste tanks on board
