HOW OVERPRIZED SAFETY IS AFFECTING OUR FIRE-FIGHTERS

 


Firefighting is one of the world’s most honored professions, but the life of a firefighter is intertwined with hazardous operations. Becoming a firefighter involves joining an organization rich in heritage of dedication, unselfish sacrifice and inspired human action. The job of a firefighter is not comfortable or easy but on the contrary, is enmeshed in making right choices and actions in dire predicaments. A firefighter characterizes high sense of personal dedication, genuine desire to help people and devotion to the profession.

There are several injuries that firefighters may experience. So, firefighters are required to wear turnout ensemble and other personal protective equipment (PPE) such as helmet, gloves, boots and a self-contained breathing apparatus, designed to provide protection against multiple hazards such as thermal threats, toxic gas inhalation, and physical injuries. Fire extinguishers also play a vital role in first aid firefighting.

Being in a profession that exposes an individual to a high level of personal danger, it is imperative to have the provision of firefighting equipment and fire foam of the highest quality attainable. In comparison to their selflessness and unshakable resolution to help those in need, providing them with the best possible amenities is the least a fire-equipment organization could do. Having the right equipment and extinguishing agent to protect oneself not only instills confidence and a sense of security at work, but it also allows their family to feel more relieved and at ease.

Malfunctioning or poorly quality equipment and chemical could endanger firefighters’ lives or prevent them from working as quickly and effectively as possible, resulting in a fire burning longer than necessary. In the current market for foam and powder, we can’t help but notice the exorbitant price ranges attached, that often make it difficult for managing the funding assigned to fire departments, affecting the affordability and implementation of quality products.

This is a blatant demonstration of boundless commercialization of basic equipment required for the personal safety of our firefighters. High pricing of products suggests that fire-protection companies prioritize growing profits over their ethical responsibilities towards our firefighting heroes and community at large; it depicts their indifferent and impersonal and dispassionate vigor.

While other companies focus on the pomp and show— culminating to overall higher prices of products and services, Foamtech AntiFire Company remains resolute in manufacturing high quality products at a lower price by curtailing unnecessary expenses. Foam and powder are the heart of the firefighting mechanism and we are proud of the quality that we have attained with respect to the prices which are markedly below other competing companies. Just like our firefighters have unwavering commitment to their field of responsibility despite all challenges, at Foamtech AntiFire Company, we target the existing issues, and work on providing superior quality products at competitive prices.
