Fire & Safety - Structural Firefighting

Fire & Safety /

Structural Firefighting

Firefighters need to be protected from the hazardous conditions that they encounter. In addition, a number of NFPA standards and regulations have to be met. All of our fabrics for structural firefighting exceed NFPA standards and have a high level of durable protection while managing heat stress better in the broad conditions you encounter.


Turnout Gear

Gore has developed industry-leading moisture barriers for firefighter turnout gear. See how our moisture barriers can enhance your gear.

Footwear

Safe, dry, comfortable feet are as important as wearing turnout gear. Boots with CROSSTECH® fabric protect from liquids, blood, and body fluids, while allowing the sweat vapor inside to escape.

Gloves

Your gloves need to be just as protective and durable as your turnout gear and boots. The 3D construction of our glove inserts provides better flexibility, less bulk in the palm, and excellent liquid penetration protection.
