When CMC Rescue was founded in 1978 our mission was to provide rescuers with a knowledgeable source for the specialized equipment they needed to do their jobs. Over the years we have grown to support a wide variety of rescue activities as a leading designer, manufacturer, trainer, and distributor. We have always been active rescuers ourselves, with a strong experience base to help us understand the needs of our customers.
hrough active participation in national standards committees, CMC Rescue helps develop standards to enhance rescuer safety. Our staff are members of the NFPA technical committees which are responsible for the NFPA 1983 Standard on Life Safety Rope and Emergency Equipment for Emergency Services, and the NFPA 1670 Standard on Operations and Training for Technical Search & Rescue Incidents. We are also on the ASTM F-32 Committee on Search and Rescue and the ASSE Committee for ANSI Z359 standard on fall protection. |
