🧑‍🚒Turnout gear isn’t enough to protect firefighters from the dangerous particulates we come in contact with while on the job.

🚒We wear hoods to protect our throats and heads, but what about the rest of our body?

💪🏼UnderGuardian protects the groin, armpits and stomach from absorbing these particulates.

➡️Reach out to us if you have any questions!

Firefighters know that cancer is a very real concern in the industry. We also know that every time we enter a fire, our skin is absorbing all of the carcinogens from the burning matter.

Instead of just accepting this, we can be proactive in our careers with our health by wearing particulate-blocking apparel.

UnderGuardian shorts and shirts cover much of the body, blocking 97% of cancer-causing particulates from being absorbed through the skin. Check out our website for the tests.

Firefighter PPE, organized by MARK MONSON Hi there, my name is Mark Monson, founder of UnderGuardian. I have been a firefighter for 26 years. I hav… MARK MONSON needs your support for Firefighter PPE

January is Fire Fighter Cancer Awareness Month.

Did you know that cancer is the leading cause of death in fire fighters? We are here to not only raise awareness of fire fighter cancer, but to also help bend that curve down.

UnderGuardian has been taking some time to redesign our apparel and have been working to make it more affordable. We will be back very soon!

Happy National First Responders Day. Many uniforms, one big family.

We are excited and honored to be here at FIERO Fire PPE Symposium.

We can’t wait to talk and learn with others, as well as share UnderGuardian with everyone.

👨‍🚒Our undergarments protect your skin from absorbing the cancer-causing particulates that you come in contact with every time you are called to a fire.

👩‍🚒We use Prevent textile, the same textile that is used in your hood. It blocks 99% of particulates from going through the material.

🚒You protect your neck and head, shouldn’t we protect the rest of our body too?

We are excited to be apart of the 2021 F.I.E.R.O. PPE Symposium this year!

🧑‍🚒F.I.E.R.O. focuses on improving firefighter health and safety through education and research.

Will you be attending F.I.E.R.O. this year?

9/11 Always Remember, Never Forget.

🧑‍🚒🇺🇸We can proudly say that UnderGuardian is Made in the USA!

🇺🇸We receive our textile from in Tennessee and our undergarments are made right here in Minneapolis, Minnesota!

🇺🇸Because of this, we are able to have full control over the production of UnderGuardian apparel. We are here to deliver the highest quality product that we can, which is very important to us and our mission.

🧑‍🚒🇺🇸Protect yourself while protecting others.

🧑‍🚒Throughout the years, I have seen many of my fellow firefighters battle cancer. Most commonly, testicular, bladder, colon and stomach cancers.

Rather than accepting this as a risk of the job, I was starting to wonder if there was more I could do.  

I extensively researched the risks of what firefighters face everyday, including our bodies working in hazardous environments. I learned that not only do we need to protect our airways but protecting our skin is also essential. 

UnderGuardian™ protects your skin, your largest organ, from absorbing cancer-causing particulates.

🧑‍🚒My hope is that someday every firefighter in America will be wearing UnderGuardian™ apparel and together we can reduce firefighter cancer.

🚒Cancer is the leading cause of death in firefighters.

🔥UnderGuardian apparel are undergarments that provide a barrier to your skin so that it doesn’t absorb the toxic cancer-causing carcinogens that come from fires.

🧑‍🚒You most likely wear a hood to protect your throat and head. UnderGuardian protects your armpits, chest, wrists, and groin area, all of which are highly absorbing areas.

🔥Protect yourself while protecting others.

We at UnderGuardian want to give a huge thank you! To everyone who stopped by our booth to talk with us and to everyone that took us under their wings as a small business because they see how important this is to the fire industry.

We appreciate you and are excited to get UnderGuardian in the hands of as many fire service individuals as soon as possible.

Thank you!

🚒Thank you and everyone we connected with over the past few days for a great time!

We are excited to get UnderGuardian out there and to see the excitement of others. This is just one step in bending that cancer curve and we’re proud to be apart of if!

We’ll see you again in April! !

Not only does UnderGuardian protect your skin from absorbing cancer-causing particulates, it is also comfortable, breathable and light weight.

When taking with others about UnderGuardian, their main concern is the comfort. One would assume because our undergarments are able to protect your skin so well, that they would be uncomfortable. Some are concerned that wearing more layers into a fire would be hot. This is not the case with our undergarments.

The material is made from Steadair Prevent fabric. It is the ONLY air permeable particular barrier with a 99% blocking efficiency.

The fabric is highly breathable, air permeable, sweat-wicking and comfortable.

If you are headed to , come feel the shorts and shirts for yourself. We’ll have all sizes available in our booth ( #13058)!

👉Firefighters have an increased chance of getting cancer, as this chart shows.

🧑‍🚒Think of all the fires that you go into over your career. Each time, you are exposed to burning materials, which give off carcinogens. Carcinogens are cancer-causing particulates. So each time you go into a fire your risk of getting cancer increases.

💪🏼UnderGuardian undergarments protect your skin from absorbing these carcinogens. The fabric has a 99% blocking rate, even after 100 wash/dry cycles. The bottoms can be worn daily, under your uniform (they are that comfortable) and the top can be slipped on quickly when you are headed to a fire.

🚒Start protecting yourself now. Let us know if you have any questions or would like more information about UnderGuardian.

“When it comes to your life…why wouldn’t you take this small step?”

🧑‍🚒UnderGuardian undergarments are one small step you can take to protect yourself from the biggest danger of a firefighter’s job, cancer.

It’s a small step that will make a big difference.

💪🏼UnderGuardian is durable, comfortable and most importantly, works to protect your skin from absorbing toxic particulates that may cause cancer.

👋See you in August!

Booth #13058

😦🚒Wow, these numbers really opened my eyes!

The abdomen, armpits and groin area have the highest rates of exposure through the skin.

🧑‍🚒Unfortunately, those in the fire industry, are exposed to chemicals and harmful toxins daily. Those are then absorbed through our skin and into our body.

💪🏼UnderGuardian covers and protects those areas using prevent textile. The undergarments have a 99% blocking efficiency after 100 wash/dry cycles.

Protect yourself while protecting others.
