Protecting Firefighters from AFFF Exposure

Aqueous Film Forming Foam (AFFF) is a vital firefighting agent, but its usage has been associated with an increased risk of cancer among firefighters. Additionally, exposure to smoke and other toxic substances poses significant health hazards to firefighters. It is during the firefighting operations and equipment cleanup that firefighters are most susceptible to contamination.

At Werma, we recognize the urgency of addressing these risks and providing comprehensive solutions to safeguard firefighter health.
