The PORTUS is a firefighter helmet cover developed by FireFightProduct with First Aid Design. It protects the helmet during transport and separates clean equipment from soiled equipment after an operation, thanks to a padded compartment and two mesh pockets for gloves and a balaclava.

How will it be useful during an intervention?
After a fire, helmet, gloves and balaclava often end up loose in the bag or trunk, in contact with clean equipment.
- Helmet protection against impacts and scratches during transport.
- Separation of soiled equipment to limit contamination of the vehicle and the rest of the clothing.
- Ventilation of the gloves and balaclava thanks to the mesh pockets.
- Quick identification of each cover thanks to the name and the badge, useful when several teams share the same vehicle.
Why we chose this product
Reducing exposure to fumes also involves how equipment is stored after an operation. We chose the PORTUS system because it organizes the helmet and accessories while separating clean from soiled items.
