ABOUT OUR FAMILY

We are a family-owned, global manufacturer of head-to-toe personal protective equipment (PPE) for first responders and an Independent Service Provider (ISP) of PPE care and maintenance. With a strong emphasis on health and safety and a mission “to serve those who serve”, our dedicated team of associates have 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 Gear Wash. Our headquarters and main production facility are located in Medina, Ohio, with additional facilities in Wisconsin, Georgia and Mexico.
