Are Blauer’s Homeland Defender® suits OSHA certified?
No. Blauer suits are certified to the NFPA 1994 Standard on Protective Ensembles for First Responders to CBRN Terrorism Incidents (2007 Ed.) The NFPA 1994 Standard is more comprehensive than OSHA guidelines because it specifies design and protective performance requirements. OSHA ratings only apply to the design of a suit for various threat levels and how the suit fits with a respirator.
