The Trellchem VPS-FLASH is a fully encapsulated personal protective suit. The reusable, single-skin, one-layer suit is made of a combination of specialized rubber and plastic laminates, together with a woven fabric that forms a strong and flexible material that offers chemical flash fire protection. The material resists abrasion, punctures, tears and chemical exposure. Standard features include a fogless lens, bayonet cuff system and hard visor. The suit also is equipped with a pass-through and tear-off lens to protect the visor from scratches. The suit is fully certified NFPA 1991-2005 with both the flash fire and liquefied gas options. New York City's fire department has chosen to use the Trellchem VPS-FLASH, according to the company.
