Xeros Introduces Cleaning System for Firefighters' Personal Protective Equipment in USA

Xeros Technology Group plc (AIM: XSG, 'Xeros'), the developer and provider of patented polymer based systems with multiple commercial applications, has today launched a US-approved polymer cleaning solution for firefighters' personal protection equipment ('PPE').

The Xeros cleaning method is highly effective at removing harmful contaminants whilst also extending the life of expensive firefighting garments.

The Xeros system is fully compliant with the USA National Fire Protection Association 1851 standard for the cleaning of firefighter equipment.

The PPE solution will be delivered as part of Xeros' existing Sbeadycare(R) service and is now available to the more than 58,000 fire stations in the USA. The system will also be used to clean high performance workwear and technical protective equipment in other markets including, amongst others, petroleum, mining, construction and military agencies.

Mark Nichols, Chief Executive of Xeros, said:

"Our ability to meet the highest performance requirements of firefighter PPE cleaning whilst simultaneously delivering significant operational benefits provides further evidence of good progress on our objective to become the de facto standard for cleaning high performance workwear.

"This market is a significant addition to that of our existing on-premise laundry business and another example of commercialising our intellectual property across multiple large scale global industries."
