Garment suits CSIs
September 1st 2009 Arco has become exclusive
stockist of an award winning
protective suit specially
designed for Scene of Crime
Officers (SOCOs) and Crime
Scene Investigators (CSIs).
The Microgard 2000
SOCO suit, which was
produced in conjunction with
an expert team from Greater
Manchester Police, has been
designed to provide comfort
and performance, whilst
being practical for the wearer.
The suit has been designed
to fit both men and women
and is available in a range of
sizes. Other practical features
include a hood compatible
with other personal protective
equipment such as goggles
and respirators; self adhesive
pockets to secure equipment
that can be positioned
anywhere on the garment;
and finger loops to prevent
sleeve movement when
working above the head. The
suit also conforms to an array
of European standards
including EN 14605, EN ISO
13982-1, EN 103034,
EN14126, EN1073-2, DIN
32781 and EN1149-1. This
means the garment offers
protection against a range of
contaminants that a SOCO or
CSI may come up against.
Kate Salesse, assistant
director of Greater
Manchester Police said: "The
pride and satisfaction I feel
each time I see television
coverage of my staff working
safely and comfortably under
media scrutiny whilst
representing Greater
Manchester Police is my
reward for instigating this
work." More articles from Arco Limited: |
