Fire Service

Hunter’s focus is on providing a world-leading technology and decontamination solution to help reduce the risks of long latency disease.

Fire and Rescue Services operate in the highest possible risk environments and encounter levels of danger that most workers never encounter. We have developed specialised knowledge and created garments and systems that collectively support and meet the requirements of fire services for design, fulfilment, maintenance and decontamination.

Our use of innovative fabrics and technology protects firefighters from serious health risks, and by developing an AI sizing system that ensures a better, more comfortable fit, our solutions are in service worldwide. Logistical delivery is supported by our ability to maintain and decontaminate the garments for longer, safe use and in line with the sustainability regulations adhered to by all modern fire services.

Dublin Fire & Rescue Service

“A major concern for DFB is managing the PPE and ensuring it is fit for purpose and complies with all legislative requirements, DFB are confident the HunterCARE® system will help us achieve this goal consistently for the duration of the contract.”

Terry Kearney – Assistant Chief Fire Officer

Suffolk Fire & Rescue Service

“SFRS and Hunter apparel have been working together for a number of years supplying the uniform and clothing for the members of the Service. Most recently Hunter Apparel successfully won the contract to supply the new uniform which was heavily focussed on quality and SFRS branding. The transition from old to new was managed really well and resulted in a swift change over and continued good service. Hunter have supplied Suffolk Fire and Rescue Service for over a decade and we can recommend them to other organisations.”

Dan Fearn – Deputy Chief Fire Officer

Essex Fire & Rescue Service

“Just passing on a heartfelt thanks from everyone at Essex County Fire and Rescue Service for the support provided this year with our efforts to protect our employees during the Covid-19 pandemic. Supply of essential PPE was a major problem globally early in the year and many supply chains across the world failed under the weight of requirement. It was great to see Hunter Apparel Solutions stepping up to the plate and solving those problems, not only for us but also for many of our colleagues nationwide.”

Sheldon Dyer – Head of Purchasing & Supply

Kilkenny Fire & Rescue Service

“We are uniformly (if you will forgive the pun) delighted with the PPE. All feedback from staff is positive, especially in terms of comfort and dexterity… The sizing process worked very well. I would be very happy to recommend Hunter to other customers.”

Frank Dunne – Senior Assistant Chief Fire Officer

Case Study Dublin Fire

1000+ wearers
15 locations
10,000 items of PPE supplied in year 1

The Dublin Fire Brigade chose Hunter to provide a range of high-value, top to toe PPE to their firefighters. This was after an extensive wearer trial where the Hunter technical solution trumped the competition. Our propriety software technology HunterCARE^® manages this entire process. This bespoke technical solution required significant R&D in product and service. Beginning with measuring each and every member of the team on site, HunterCARE^® then created an auditable Duty of Care compliance system and greater efficiencies by tracking, tracing and maintaining every item. Hunter now offers a wearable technology solution which has set a new benchmark for PPE in Ireland. The project received resulted in a Best Safety Solution Award in 2020 at the Health and Safety Awards, N.E.C, Birmingham, under the British Safety Industry Federation section.

HunterCARE^® makes sure our PPE is fit for purpose and Duty of Care compliant.

HunterONE® designed, prototyped and manufactured a completely new workwear range that communicates professionalism when carrying out these roles but also is easy to wash and maintain for general work and use.

“It’s really important that the public know what our staff look like when they visit their homes…The new workwear uniform not only gives our fire-fighters a really professional look, it makes them easily identifiable.”
