If your community needs Equipment of any kind then we can start a project specifically for your needs (Conditions apply),

Support this Universal Project

As you watch the horrific fires, pandemics and chemical incidents where first Responders should be wearing breathing apparatus, they are not,this is not by choice, many Federal, State and Local governments and community based first Responder organisations fail to provide this necessary apparatus to safely protect their people from inhaling long term toxic gases that will cause a variety of debilitating ailments. Governing bodies are burdened with the choice of equipment to fight fires and respond to incidents or provide adequate protective gear for the First responder attending duty to their budget constraints.

Many First Responders will not display the symptoms till later in life and by then it is difficult to prove it is an on the job ailment, to this extent they endure long term suffering and cost. The First Responder community has the welfare of First Responders as a chief objective in our mission.

This project is to supplement or create supplies of Breathing apparatus to be provided to First Responders when required. Your financial assistance is required to build this capability.

The Whiffs Tac-Air Pro Mask was developed for police and SWAT departments. The mask and breathing port of the mask is made of black Nomex material which carries a 565°C heat rating.

Included with this product is a detachable elastic head strap. This strapping system secures the mask and filter to the user’s head, assuring that the mask will not slip down in any type of tactical situation.

The Tac-Air Pro Mask is lined with blue Indura Ultra soft cloth with a hydro lone finish. This material helps to wick moisture from the user’s face and prevents the transfer of radiant heat to the skin. The mask can also be used for bush firefighting and for structural overhaul/mop-up.

Its sleek design makes it comfortable to wear, even in hot climates. The black velcro attachment point at the bridge of the nose on the outside of the mask can be used for attaching to goggles.

It reduces 100% of dust and particulate matter down to 3/10th of one micron.

The Xcaper technology is lab-verified, approved for use by the US Navy and has been proven in tens of thousands of live fire situations over the last six years by more than 75,000 professional firefighters. The unique features of this smoke mask provide it with unsurpassed ease-of-use, comfort, respiration, portability and unparalleled protection.
