Recorded live at INTERSCHUTZ, this episode puts the spotlight on PBI and the people behind the protection firefighters rely on every day. I sit down with Dan Melia, a 35-year FDNY veteran, former Safety Chief and long-time firefighter PPE advocate, whose career has taken him from operational firefighting and FDNY Research & Development into NFPA PPE standards work and, more recently, his role with PBI. We get into the evolution of bunker gear, what firefighters really need to understand about the kit protecting them, lessons learned from decades inside FDNY, and why PBI continues to invest so heavily in firefighter safety, education and the wider fire-service community. It’s a proper fire-nerd conversation about PPE, protection, performance and making better-informed decisions about the gear between firefighters and the fire.
