What is BS8617?

This new standard aims to give guidance for cleaning, maintenance and repair of firefighters’ PPE. It covers a lot: inspection, testing, cleaning, decontamination, drying, repairs, replacement, and retirement/disposal when the PPE reaches 10 years since manufacture. It even covers recording, storage and transportation.
