Mentor (OH) – Cres Cor Health & Safety, manufacturers of Cres Guard, the mobile biological decontamination cabinet for first responders announces dealer agreements with both Darley (Itasca, IL) and Western Fire Supply (El Dorado Hills, CA).

The Cres Guard, since its introduction at FDIC International 2021 has seen a strong, positive response among fire, police, and military first responders. Cres Guard is the first mobile decontamination cabinet that reduces biological hazards on structural firefighting and first responder gear in a quick, 15-minute chemical-free cycle. With more than 80% of responses being medical, personnel are often exposed to such hazards as flu, Covid, MRSA, and bedbugs.

Darley (FDIC International Booth #3457) will represent Cres Guard in the military markets, and Western Fire Supply will work in the municipal fire/police markets. “The strength of our solutions comes from the power of our partnerships, and Cres Guard proves that in their people and products,” says Kimberly Brown, Darley CMO. Darley is a fourth-generation, private company with the mission to passionately serve the world’s first responder and tactical communities by providing high quality, safe and innovative products with unmatched commitment and service since 1908.

Western Fire Supply (FDIC International Booth #10070) features their new mobile decontamination trailer, (with a Cres Guard cabinet installed) and is wrapped with the Cres Guard image. The trailer will be driven to fire departments around the country for demonstrations.

Western Fire Supply is a S3 DVBE California-certified Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise and Veterans Administration Verified CVE (Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business) that provides high-quality products and solutions for those involved in fire protection and suppression.

“As the owner of Western Fire Supply, I am proud to partner with Cres Guard in offering the firefighting community access to their state-of-the-art mobile decontamination unit. We consider it an honor to represent this innovative product and provide our firefighters with a tool that not only enhances their safety but also benefits the health and well-being of their families. At Western Fire Supply, we remain committed to bringing cutting-edge solutions to our firefighting community, and partnering with Cres Guard is another step in that direction,” states Joe Humprey, Owner, Western Fire Supply.

Cres Guard (FDIC International Booth #13145), now in its third year exhibiting at FDIC International, has cabinets being used by Oklahoma City Fire Department, Mentor Fire Department, Ohio and Eielson Air Force Base, Alaska, and many more departments throughout the US. “We’re thrilled to work with two very well-respected dealers who share in our dedication to keeping first responders safe,” comments Greg Baggott, President of Cres Cor.

ABOUT CRES COR HEALTH & SAFETY

Cres Cor Health and Safety is committed to creating a healthier and safer work environment for First responders, Department of Defense who strive to protect us. The regular exposure of our first responders and agency personnel to various hazards especially infectious diseases pose a risk of cross-contamination with a lack of a convenient, local, and safe method to decontaminate personal protective gear. Health risks due to chemical-based decontamination processes demonstrate a need for non-chemical, zero residual processes.
