FAST-ACT Expands Global Reach with Decontamination Tender Win in Croatia
FAST-ACT is proud to announce its recent success in securing a tender with the Ministry of Interior (MoI) in Croatia for specialized decontamination equipment.
Securing 2026 Mega-Event Dry Decontamination Procedures: Why Chemical Decontamination Must Be Part of the Playbook
This blog will explain the scale and stakes of these events, highlight why chemical decontamination and decontamination methods are essential to safety, and reaffirm how FAST-ACT’s solutions merge with personal protective equipment (PPE) and multiagency workflow to deliver readiness, efficiency, and confidence.
Hospital Dry Decontamination: A Faster, More Efficient Approach to Emergency Response
During a mass casualty incident involving chemical agents or hazardous materials, every second counts. Hospitals must act quickly to protect patients, staff, and infrastructure while maintaining operations within the hospital environment. Traditional wet decontamination systems, which rely on large volumes of water and extended setup, can slow down an emergency response when speed is critical. … Continue reading Hospital Dry Decontamination: A Faster, More Efficient Approach to Emergency Response
FAST-ACT’s Hospital SOP: Advancing Chemical Decontamination Preparedness
In this blog, we will cover the essential steps of the FAST-ACT hospital SOP, explain how the FAST-ACT Pressurized Cylinders, FAST-ACT Decontamination Mitts, and FAST-ACT Decontamination Wipes are applied, and highlight the supporting science behind these hospital-focused decontamination protocols.
The Shift Toward Dry Decontamination: Funding, Adoption, and the Future of CBRN Preparedness
In this blog, we’ll examine why dry decontamination is gaining momentum, highlight Europe’s leadership and funding efforts, and explore how global organizations—including FAST-ACT—are adopting these solutions to strengthen preparedness for CBRN threats. standard.
Why Effective Chemical Spill Response Matters in Industrial Settings
We’ll look at several industries where chemical spills are a pressing concern—including lithium-ion battery facilities, mining operations, and transportation hubs such as airports and ports—and explore how the right tools and response strategies can protect workers, reduce risks, and keep operations running safely.
Defending Against the Unknown: Why the FAST-ACT DEFEND Kit is Critical for First Responders
The rise of fentanyl and other illicit drugs has amplified these risks. For those on the front lines, having a reliable, field-ready solution for both detection and decontamination is no longer optional—it’s essential.
FAST-ACT vs. Traditional Sorbents: A Smarter Solution for Industrial Chemical Response
For decades, many sites have relied on traditional absorbent materials like soda ash, vermiculite, or clay absorbents. While these are common in spill kits and spill response kits, they have one fundamental limitation: they do not neutralize hazardous chemicals. Instead, they merely soak up or contain a substance, leaving potential hazards and health risks behind.
Rapid Decontamination: Why Speed and Preparedness Save Lives
When hazardous materials are released—during a chemical spill, civil unrest, or exposure to unknown powders—time is critical. Rapid decontamination can dramatically reduce the risk of chemical exposure, limiting health threats to responders and the public.
