Protect Users from Toxic Industrial and Fire Related Gases, Vapors and Particles

In an emergency situation, there’s typically no time to spare. A combination of a well trained workforce, along with easy to use emergency equipment could be the difference between life and death. When the environment turns toxic, airborne toxins can present an immediate danger to those in the affected areas so a fast, safe escape is crucial. Emergency equipment designed to aid those in the affected area is just as important.

Particularly when it comes to potentially life saving equipment like the Draeger “PARAT”® Escape Hoods. Draeger “PARAT”® Escape Hoods were designed to be easily donned and once deployed, to protect users from toxic industrial and fire related gases, vapors and particles for at least 15 minutes.

Airborne toxins present an immediate danger to the health of a workforce. When environments turn toxic, a fast, safe escape is crucial. Draeger PARAT® Escape Hoods are designed to be easily donned, protecting users from toxic industrial and fire-related gases, vapors and particles during escape.
