Posted by: Hayley Tincu | June 15,2024 As new textile and material technologies become available to manufacturers of structural firefighting gear, LION strives to remain at the cutting edge of bringing the newest innovations to the market. We’d like to provide an update on some important facts regarding the array of materials we use in our turnout gear, specifically concerning PFAS (Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances), which has been an ongoing topic of interest, as well as point out areas of consideration for fire departments considering evaluating these new technologies and materials for their firefighters. We encourage interested fire departments to wear-test all new products before purchase to evaluate breathability, durability, and other performance criteria required by each department’s risk assessment.

"IT'S AMAZING TO BE A WOMAN IN THE FIRE SERVICE" March 20, 2024 | HAYLEY TINCU, VP, MARKETING & CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE March is Women’s History Month, and we wanted to take this opportunity to spotlight the past, present, and future of women in America’s fire service. From the first women firefighters of the 19th century to the nearly 90,000 women protecting their communities today, there’s no history of firefighting without the history of women in the fire service. And what better way to tell the continuing story of these courageous women than through a conversation with a current firefighter serving her community in Texas. Meet Shantel Lund. She’s a firefighter for the Port of Houston, a competitive CrossFit athlete, and a 2023 Firefighter Challenge winner.
