By: David Mack RST’s patented fabric called DemronTM contains embedded metal particles and other compounds capable of blocking X-rays, low-energy gamma rays and other types of nuclear emission that are found anywhere from a nuclear facility to the site of a dirty bomb blast. The new Demron-W goes one step further to combine this nuclear blockage with chemical & biological protection, literally putting the “N” back into “CBRN”. “Until Demron-W, our military and first-responders have been forced to choose what protective suit to wear based on the specific threat they faced. Demron- Demron-W is the only material to fully pass all NFPA 1994-2007 Class 2 requirements, along with protection against Alpha, Beta, Gamma & X-Rays. Other key features of the suit include: - Protects against nuclear emissions and ionizing radioactive sources; - Exceeded all Class 2 material requirements for NFPA 1994-2007, Standard on Protective Ensembles for First Responders to CBRN Terrorism Incidents - 50% greater Heat Dissipation when compared to traditional Chemical suits - Material is Lead & PVC free - Superior resistance tears, punctures & cuts - Unparalleled flexibility & usability in a Level B suit design For more information on this suit, or to request a demonstration, feel free to contact Trellchem directly at tvi.usa@trelleborg.com, or call (800)344-4458. # # # About Trelleborg-Viking, Inc., Trelleborg-Viking, Inc., with US Operations based in Mansfield, MA, is a leading Global designer, manufacturer & distributor of Chemical Protective Ensembles (including multiple suits certified to NFPA 1991-2005), Protective Shelters, Hoods and Dry Suits.
