How soot-stained firefighter suits are deep cleaned
Firefighters are essential members of the first-responder community. And burning buildings are not their only concern: cancer plagues the firefighting community as a result of breathing in harmful chemicals and smoke on a daily basis. These chemicals linger on their gear, and without proper cleaning they contribute further to health issues. Mike Matros, the owner of RedLine Gear Cleaning, seeks to change this reality by encouraging firefighters to have their gear properly cleaned. RedLine specializes in deep cleaning contaminated bunker gear in an effort to prevent cancer and protect the future of the firefighting service.
