SOOTSOAP was developed to address the complex challenges facing Fire Services.
Firefighters have a significantly increased risk of cancers and other serious illnesses due to exposure from hazardous chemicals found at live fire incidents, during overhaul, through substance transfer and even from their own gear.
These toxic chemicals are not entering the lungs - they’re absorbing into the skin where the rate of absorption increases by 400% for every 5 degree increase in skin temperature.
75% of the names added to the Firefighter Fallen Memorial Wall (IAFF) in 2022 died of occupational cancer; yet another stat showing that Cancer is the leading cause of line of duty death for firefighters.
The W.H.O.’s International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has recently declared firefighting a Group 1 Carcinogenic occupation - a job that unequivocally causes cancer.
SOOTSOAP products remove chemicals, not add to them. Each and every product is made with carefully sourced and selected, natural and naturally derived, pharmaceutical-grade ingredients that harness plant power to protect your body and your family.
Wet decontamination with soap and water has been proven to be the most effective way of removing toxins and a pivotal part of the decontamination process. (Check out the science!)
SOOTSOAP was designed to do what water alone and what regular soap cannot do - get at the hard-to-eliminate toxins without drying you out, with all-natural ingredients like Binchotan Charcoal and the Detox Trifecta - ingredients well-described scientifically to adsorb toxins associated with firefighting, and saturated at high percentages within the SOOTSOAP products.
