Powdersafe

Powdersafe Contaminated Mail Isolation System

In today’s world, terrorists and terror organizations use mail-based threats containing unknown and potentially dangerous substances as one method of furthering their agendas against organizations large and small. The Powdersafe Contaminated Mail Isolation System is designed to safely isolate, contain and remove letter mail threats in a manner that helps your company or government agency protect your mailroom staff, maintain your business continuity, and preserve vital forensic evidence that may be used to identify the perpetrator.

The Powdersafe System is portable, simple to use and can be deployed anywhere that it is required. Powdersafe provides end users with the means to identify, assess and control the risks associated with daily mail processing. Powdersafe is endorsed by the Australian Government (SCEC) and is used by government, corporate entities and emergency responders worldwide. Powdersafe operates as a complete system for dealing with suspicious mail believed to contain a powdered contaminant - from point of discovery to final analysis of suspect powders or contaminants. This complete control and enclosure protects the health and safety of people processing mail, emergency responders and laboratory technicians.

Powdersafe’s Isolation Chamber is designed to isolate and contain suspicious mail items and other types of suspect items. Powdersafe allows the user to safely examine the contents of an envelope in a secure environment. The Powdersafe box chamber is certified gas-tight, easy to use, and is compatible with category one and two biological safety cabinets used in laboratories throughout the world. The Powdersafe chamber has two ports which allow testing authorities to insert probes in order to sample the contents without having to open the main seal. The Powdersafe isolation chamber system comes with two letter openers with recessed blades that cannot accidentally cut the gloves. The Powersafe system requires no power or artificial lighting to operate, and has a simple locking mechanism. Powdersafe is designed to fit snugly into the transport case for ease of relocation should a possible threat be discovered.

Powdersafe’s wheeled transport case allows the proper authorities to safely remove suspect items from the workplace mailroom for transport to a testing facility. Powdersafe’s transport case is fitted with two independent seals and is double-walled and insulated to provide the highest level of protection. When suspect packages are contained within the isolation chamber and then sealed within the transport case, the net effect is a triple-wall, triple-seal containment between the unknown contaminant and the outside environment. Powdersafe’s combination of isolation chamber and transport case is designed to meet transport regulations for the transport of potentially hazardous material. The case color is highly visible and the retractable handle and wheels make it easy to maneuver.
