ABOUT US
Quaker Safety has been manufacturing many types of protective
clothing since 1946. However, the real roots of the company we
know today were established in 1986 when the company began
to focus primarily on manufacturing garments for structural and
proximity fire fighting. Substantial market research and develop-
ment conducted throughout the years has provided Quaker Safety
with insight into the requirements of the clothing from the fire
department’s perspective which, in turn, has enabled Quaker
Safety to design and manufacture high quality turnout gear with
a quick, reliable delivery schedule. Quaker Safety’s rapid delivery,
for which the company has become well known, remains unsur-
passed in the fire service industry.
Qaker Safety also offers its gear customers a comprehensive range of on site cleaning and repair services, including those which are required annually by NFPA 1851. All work is performed to exacting standards by experienced personnel with the objective of maximzing the safety of the wearer and the useful life of the Quaker Safety proective clothing.
Over the last 23 years, Quaker Safety has developed a network
of leading distributors and exporters throughout North America.
Quaker Safety believes that service through local distribution is
the best way to achieve the highest level of customer satisfac-
tion. Quaker Safety’s local distributors are always available to
measure, provide technical support and to ensure that each set
of protective clothing is customized to meet each fire department’s
specific needs.
