Protection Against Fentanyl: Learn What protective Clothing Should be Worn

The Rise of High-Risk Environments

The opioid epidemic continues to evolve, with synthetic fentanyl now a leading contributor to accidental overdoses and exposure-related incidents. According to the DEA, fentanyl is 50 times more potent than heroin and can be deadly even in small doses—raising urgent concerns for first responders, hazmat crews, and emergency personnel.

 


Fentanyl Personal Protective Equipment

Traditional personal protective equipment may not offer the necessary defense against both dry particulates and liquid splashes—key exposure pathways for fentanyl. That’s why selecting certified, durable PPE specifically suited for hazardous environments is more important than ever.
