Defining the
Gold Standard.
“Not every gear cleaner is an ISP. Verification ensures your gear maintains its life-saving properties.”
An Independent Service Provider (ISP) is an organization that has undergone rigorous auditing by certification bodies (like UL or Intertek) to prove they can clean, inspect, and repair PPE without compromising its integrity.
AUDITED COMPLIANCE
ISPs are audited bi-annually to ensure every repair meets original manufacturer and NFPA specifications.
SPECIALIZED SKILLS
Technicians are trained specifically to handle technical textiles like Kevlar, Nomex, and PBI.
LIABILITY PROTECTION
Using an ISP provides your department with a documented trail of professional care, reducing liability.
WARRANTY RETENTION
Service by a verified ISP helps maintain manufacturer warranties that home-washing often voids.
DATA INTEGRITY
ISPs provide detailed electronic records for every piece of gear, tracking its lifetime history.
ADVANCED TESTING
ISPs perform hydrostatic and liner integrity tests that cannot be done in a standard station wash.
