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.

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.
What this covers
- Skin after the call
- Hand washing in daily station duty
- Skin protection before the call
- Dry cleaning with the wipes
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

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.
This builds the wash point
- Basin with fresh and waste water tanks
- Splash guard from LAVextend up
- Paper towel dispenser and trash bag holder
- Mounts for two 500 ml containers
- Set up by hand
Mobile toilet and ready-packed hygiene boxes
Box S and Box L contain the same easyToilet SOS as the single purchase, plus one LAVESE Basic each, shower head, paper towel dispenser, lighting and consumables from toilet paper to nitrile gloves. The basin comes as the base kit, with splash guard and EURO mounts retrofitted later via the LAVextend. With the roll container you choose between the base variant for existing toilets and the variants with one or two easyToilet, moved by the hook-lift truck.
Included in Box S and Box L
- easyToilet SOS with privacy tent
- LAVESE Basic as the basin
- Shower head and paper towel dispenser
- Lighting and platform stand
- Toilet paper, feminine hygiene, nitrile gloves
Emergency decon shower and disinfection gate on scene
The Kamel provides the connectors that turn your fire department's sectional ladders into an arch. The spray liquid comes from the SnakE 4, together the two units make the complete decon point. The Kamel's full set fits in one Euro box and with that in any truck with room for it.
Both units together form the decon point
- Connectors for your sectional ladders
- Spray supply from the SnakE 4
- Emergency decon and vehicle shower
- Transport in one Euro box
What you get, what goes with it
The LAVextend builds on an existing LAVESE Basic. If you start from zero, the PRO gets you both in one delivery for 47.39 € less than buying the parts one after the other.
