We advocate for firefighter safety through the use of air management best practices, technology and advanced fireground research.
Our Mission Stands on Four Pillars

The air on your back is what enables you to do your work and survive. And like every other resource on the fireground, that air needs to be deliberately planned, practiced and managed.

Smoke is a killer. Understanding the enemy is crucial to reduce the chance of illness, disease and death.
