Cancer is an increasing concern for firefighters.  According to "A Study of Cancer among United States Firefighters," being conducted by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) and the U.S. Fire Administration (USFA), firefighters are twice as likely than the general population to develop mesothelioma, a rare form of cancer which carries a poor prognosis.

To help reduce the rate of cancers among firefighters, many departments have issued Cancer Awareness and Prevention Directives (CAPD) to ensure gear is decontaminated after each exposure to a fire -- some even suggest purchasing an extra set of gear to help ensure exposed gear is laundered.

MSA takes this concern seriously.  To help departments implement CAPD, MSA is running a promotion for a FREE Cairns Soft Goods Kit with the purchase of a new Cairns Fire Helmet¹.  The soft goods kit (an $80+ value) includes:  Standard Liner, Nomex Ear Lap, Velcro Tabs and Mesh Laundering Bag.

This promotion includes only the following Cairns Fire Helmet Soft Goods Kits:
