Our commitment to firefighters’ well-being

Firefighters face an even more formidable enemy than flames and smoke inhalation: research shows they are 14% more likely than the general population to die of cancer.

Their uniform is their shield – but if it’s not cleaned properly, cancer-causing toxins can build up inside the layers and threaten the firefighter’s health. Electrolux Professional has found a way to remove most of residual toxins, far surpassing the results of the standard washing procedure.

Fire fighter garments are bulky.
Therefore machines with a large drum volume and a big door opening are recommended.

High spin front load washers or barrier washers machines with a programmable control and special wash programs are most suitable for two reasons:

  • The uniforms might have a membrane layer which can create a “water pocket” giving extreme unbalance during extraction. An high spin washer is not that sensitive to heavy unbalance.
  • Low extraction will not damage the very expensive illumination stripes in the garment.
