Stability and security reduce slip and fall risks for firefighting, emergency and rescue professionals. Harnesses and ladder escape belts perform these roles, attaching to a nearby object or equipment like a ladder or aerial bucket.
Beyond ordinary safety gear and personal protective equipment (PPE), brands like Gemtor craft their ladder belts to the environments firefighters face each day: high heat, close flames and working from heights to improve ventilation or rescue trapped victims.
A widely used fire and emergency department staple, Gemtor's Pompier Ladder Escape Belt is made with woven, high-strength nylon webbing to both withstand these hazards, even in proximity, and keep the user stable at a number of heights and in multiple positions.
Gemtor designed its Pompier ladder belt for two types of missions. One, once hooked to a nearby object or ladder, it securely keeps the wearer in place as they perform various maneuvers. Two, the belt functions as an emergency self-rescue device. So that fire and rescue professionals are fully equipped to perform, the Pompier's customizable construction can include an axe sheath, leg straps or hook-extension strap.
