ABOUT OUR FAMILY

We are a family-owned, global manufacturer of personal protective equipment (PPE) for firefighters and first responders. With a strong emphasis on health and safety and a mission “to serve those who serve”, we've paved the path of innovation for head-to-toe products, offering turnout gear, rescue & wildland PPE, boots, hoods, gloves, helmets, and even isolation PPE.

Maintaining the very core values on which we were founded in 1983, we've extended our ability to serve and support the fire community with the acquisition of three major brands; Chieftain, TECGEN, and most recently, Gear Wash, adding PPE advanced clean and repair services to our portfolio, as well as laundry and disinfectant solutions. Our growing team is headquartered in Medina, Ohio with a second production facility in Georgia.
