The new CRS15 CBRN Response System

Avon will show their new PPE (Personal Protection Equipment) kit – the CRS15. Based around the tried and tested NH15 escape hood, CRS15 pack provides equipment for comprehensive personal protection and decontamination. With a range of options to procure the kits, including options to lease or hire, this new offering from Avon provides an all-inclusive solution.

Giving comprehensive CBRN and HAZMAT support for civilians and military, the CRS15 is ideal for personal protection at major events, in riot situations, industrial or chemical incidents, and for VIP visits.

‘’This comprehensive service will give employers and security companies a cost effective means of providing comprehensive CBRN & HAZMAT protection, safeguarding the public and their employees in the current challenging environment and the threat of terrorist attack’’ De Bretton-Gordon remarks.

‘’Avon is enhancing the world leading NH 15 with a range of ensembles offering respiratory protection, suits, gloves, personal decontamination solutions and biological and explosives detection.

Personal decontamination equipment is critical – evidence shows that secondary decontamination is the biggest killer post a CBRN event and hence our individual packs cover all eventualities’’ continues De Bretton-Gordon.
