Aviation & Cabin Safety
The EVAC-U8 Emergency Escape Smoke Hood is recommended by aviation and fire safety experts worldwide. EVAC-U8 will protect against many deadly gases that pilots and air crew are likely to be exposed to in an aviation emergency. These gases include CARBON MONOXIDE, HYDROGEN CYANIDE, HYDROGEN CHLORIDE and ACROLEIN. Lightweight & compact, EVAC-U8 is perfect for frequent flyers as it can be carried from the plane and can be used to evacuate a high rise hotel. It was instrumental in saving lives of guests and staff when a fire broke out in the Stockholm Sheraton in 1996.
