    Kick off National Fire Prevention Week with USAF Firefighter, SrA Kim, as he hosts his own GRWM at Ramstein AB, Germany 🔥 This year, Fire Prevention Week takes place from 06 to 12 October with an official theme of "Smoke alarms: make them work for you!" According to the data gathered by NFPA, roughly three out of five fire deaths occur in homes with either no smoke alarms or no working smoke alarms. To reduce these statistics, and align with fire safety guidelines, check out these valuable tips below: • Install smoke alarms in every bedroom, outside each separate sleeping area (like a hallway), and on each level (including the basement) of the home. • Make sure smoke alarms meet the needs of all family members, including those with sensory or physical disabilities. • Test smoke alarms at least once a month by pushing the test button. • Replace all smoke alarms when they are 10 years old or don’t respond when tested. We’re thankful for our dedicated firefighters who work diligently to mitigate dangers our communities may face. Give a shoutout to a USAF firefighter in the comments below 👇

  • Watch the short film, SAFER, where we capture the dedication and bravery of first responders as they face danger head-on, relying on Ricochet Gear to perform at all times so they can focus on saving lives. The intense moments, the strong bonds, and the unwavering commitment to keep others safe are all known, experienced, and understood by the women and men that wear Ricochet Gear. This is a tribute to them– the ones who willingly confront danger, driven by a deep sense of purpose. We are forever inspired by their extraordinary courage and the powerful connections they build with the people they serve. . . . Firefighters, EMS, USAR/Tech Rescue, Military– we’re honored to provide you with the absolute best gear so you can focus on what matters most. Thank you for your dedication and service. 🔥MORE ABOUT RICOCHET GEAR🔥 ✅ Structural Firefighting Gear: Ricochet set new standards in PPE with the M2 (Maximum Mobility™) design Structural Firefighting gear.

    We had a very successful week as we attended the Congressional Fire Service Institute (CFSI) semi-annual National Advisory Committee meeting in Washington, D.C. representing FEMSA and Ricochet. We attended alongside organizations like the International Association of Firefighters (IAFF), International Association of Fire Chiefs (IAFC) and many more including FEMSA and FAMA. We even had the opportunity to connect with the DC Fire Chief at the evening reception where he had the DC Fire boat put on a great show. Thank you to CFSI for hosting! #WearSomethingSafer #RicochetGear #FEMSA #Firefighters @FEMSA International Association of Fire Fighters (IAFF) International Association of Fire Chiefs (IAFC)

  • 🔎 Team Spotlight 🔎 Brian Dunn Territory Manager for the Southwest Region After a distinguished 32-year career with the San Angelo Fire Department, Brian Dunn has taken on a new challenge as Territory Manager for the Southwest Region at Ricochet. There, he works to equip firefighters with the best personal protective equipment (PPE) available. Brian’s journey began in his father’s machine shop, where he found himself drawn to the stories and experiences of local firefighters who frequented the shop. Their tales of bravery and the unique challenges of the job inspired him to pursue a career in firefighting—a decision that would define his life for the next three decades. Over the years, Brian rose through the ranks, eventually serving as Fire Chief. His commitment was always to leave things better than he found them, whether it was improving fire safety systems or supporting his fellow firefighters.

  • We kicked off October by hosting Hollywood Volunteer Fire Department for an exclusive tour of the Ricochet facility and gear demo. It’s not every day we get to share our process with the people who put our gear to the ultimate test. Getting together and hearing their stories reminds us why we do what we do—designing gear that keeps them safe while they keep us safe. A big thank you to the HVFD team for your courage, dedication, and trust in our work. #WearSomethingSafer #RicochetGear #FacilityTour #FirefighterPride #builttoprotect
