Mira Safety Haz-Suit Protective CBRN Hazmat Suit

When it comes to serious disasters and hazmat chemical exposure—the MIRA Safety HAZ-SUIT makes NO compromises.

Engineered to be one of the most durable, longest-lasting, and most flexible hazmat suit solutions on the market today, the MIRA Safety HAZ-SUIT provides comprehensive protection from a whole universe of CBRN agents and gives you a practical solution for decades to come.

Developed in partnership with Kappler, an international leader in personal protective apparel, the MIRA Safety HAZ-SUIT is one of the world’s only disposable hazmat suits offered in a wide variety of sizes—fitting children as young as 4 years old—and it’s available exclusively through MIRA Safety.

Mira Safety s HAZ-SUIT fabric is made from a durable, puncture-resistant film composite with an excellent barrier to over 125 chemicals including chemical warfare agents (CWA) and toxic industrial chemicals (TIC).

This military hazmat suit is used extensively by major fire departments for hazmat response, major hospitals for emergency preparedness first receivers, major chemical companies for a wide range of potential hazmat exposures, and most branches of the US Military (Department of Defense, DoD).

The fabric of this hazmat suit suit has been subjected to a variety of long-term storage conditions and exhibits no degradation in performance over time when stored properly in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. That means it could last for decades or longer without compromising on protection.

The MIRA Safety HAZ-SUIT is ideal for demanding hazardous applications with potential for chemical splash, even in significant exposure scenarios. Increased physical strength and even broader chemical holdout take the protection level of this fabric up a serious notch.

With an extensive chemicals-tested list, the MIRA Safety HAZ-SUIT delivers the ultimate in hazmat protection.

  Shelf Life on HAZ-SUIT Chemical Garments

  MIRA Safety is not aware of an accepted or universal industry standard for determining the shelf life of hazmat suits or chemical-barrier fabrics. Shelf life is typically based on the expectation of products or materials to degrade or lose effectiveness over a period of time.

  When properly stored away from sunlight and in a cool, dry location not subject to temperature extremes, there’s no evidence to indicate that the MIRA Safety HAZ-Suit composite fabric loses any protective characteristics or physical properties over time.

  This conclusion is based on HAZ-SUIT fabric naturally aged over twenty years. A coverall using the twenty-year-old HAZ-SUIT fabric was tested against the ASTM F1001 list of twenty-one chemicals with no breakthrough in >480 minutes.

  The aged fabric was also tested for its physical properties and still meets manufacturing specifications. Based on this information, MIRA Safety considers the shelf life of its HAZ-SUIT products to be undetermined.

  Chemical suits contain components made from various polymer or rubber materials for which there is no shelf life data available. Therefore, the garments may be used as long as they are deemed safe after a visual inspection and, in the case of vapor protective (Level A) garments, after passing the ASTM F1052 pressure test. It is recommended that suits are downgraded to training use only when they no longer pass visual inspection and or pressure testing.

  It is the wearer s responsibility to ensure that all components, including fabric, valves, visors, gloves, zippers, seams, and suit-to-component interfaces, are in good working condition and provide adequate protection for the conditions and chemicals to be encountered. Any suit that does not pass the visual and or pressure test should be immediately removed from service.

  IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS FOR CHILDREN:

  Make sure to keep a close eye on children wearing the HAZ-SUIT. Considering the non-breathable nature of the material (a result of keeping contaminants out), it can get hot while wearing the suit and can cause overheating or dehydration. If your child looks like they are overheating at any time, it is important to evacuate to safety and remove the suit as soon as possible to avoid injury or death. It is up to the guardians of children to determine when wearing the HAZ-SUIT is no longer safe, and guardians accept all responsibility for necessary training.

  IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS FOR GASES AND VAPORS:

  Certain gases and vapors absorb through the skin. While the HAZ-SUIT is tested and proven to block these contaminants in liquid form, it is not a sure-fire way to prevent all gases and vapors from entering.

  The HAZ-SUIT is designed with an elastic hood, wrists, and ankles. When coupled with hazmat gloves, a gas mask, and hazmat boots, the level of vapors and gases that enter the suit would be limited but not eliminated.

  The only tried and true way to block all gases and vapors is with a fully-encapsulated Level A hazmat suit, which would require an SCBA system.

  As these systems are costly, they may not be practical for agencies and civilians to stock for emergency preparation. Make sure to read up on skin-absorbing gases and vapors when deciding to purchase any hazmat suit.
