Environmental Services in an Unpredictable World

As the world population continues to grow and industrialize, there is increasing need for safe and effective environmental services for communities and industries. These services include site remediation, industrial waste management and disposal, recycling, and disaster response services. In North America, there is strong government oversight and focus on environmental protection, with the expectation that industrial, military, commercial entities will manage their waste and mitigate associated risks swiftly and safely.

The companies and workers who handle these tasks must be armed with the best safety protocols, equipment and training possible. They need to understand their hazards and the right means of protection.

This is where DuPont Personal Protection can help. We have the largest portfolio of garments and accessories from ProShield® light dirty job protection, Tyvek® durable protection, to Tychem® Level A and Level B suits. We have an unmatched chemical permeation database and hazard selector tool called SafeSPEC™ that can help guide one through the selection process.
