The MIRA Safety HAZ-SUIT is a professional-grade CBRN hazmat suit engineered for emergency response, industrial safety, and long-term preparedness. Built from a multi-layer barrier laminate with heat-sealed and taped seams, it has been tested against more than 125 chemical threats — including toxic industrial chemicals (TICs) and chemical warfare agents (CWAs) such as mustard gas (HD), sarin (GB), lewisite (L), and VX nerve agent. Available in six sizes spanning youth small through 2X/3X, it covers wearers from children as young as four years old through large adults.

Who this is for

• Emergency responders and hazmat teams: fire departments, hospitals, and industrial safety crews that need broad-spectrum CBRN protection beyond what light-duty disposable coveralls provide.
• Military, government, and civil defense personnel: agencies requiring a reusable suit proven against chemical warfare agents and radioactive particulates in unpredictable, high-stress environments.
• Preparedness-minded civilians and families: individuals and households — including those with children — who want a long-shelf-life CBRN solution ready for chemical accidents, radiological events, or pandemic scenarios.

CBRN protection and chemical performance

The HAZ-SUIT's multi-layer barrier laminate forms a unified barrier against chemical splashes, particulates, and vapor exposure. The suit has been tested against chemical warfare agents at the following breakthrough thresholds:

The suit is also tested against the ASTM F1001 standard chemical battery of 21 substances. Select results: acetone (>480 min), carbon disulfide (>480 min), nitrobenzene (>480 min), sulfuric acid (>480 min), chlorine gas (>480 min), and hydrogen chloride gas (>480 min). Dichloromethane achieved 70 minutes of resistance; methyl alcohol reached 55 minutes. The suit is engineered for up to eight hours of direct exposure to numerous chemical agents and radioactive particulates listed in standardized tests.

Radiological protection: the HAZ-SUIT helps prevent alpha-emitting dust and many beta contaminants from contacting skin or clothing. It does not shield against penetrating gamma or neutron radiation — gamma exposure is managed through time, distance, and shielding, and proper respiratory protection is essential to prevent inhalation of radioactive particulates.

An important note on gases and vapors: some gases and vapors can be absorbed through the skin. The HAZ-SUIT has been tested and proven to block these contaminants in liquid form, but no non-encapsulated suit can guarantee complete protection from all gases and vapors. The elastic hood, wrists, and ankles, when paired with appropriate hazmat gloves, a properly fitted gas mask, and chemical-resistant boots, significantly limit — but do not entirely eliminate — vapor and gas entry. For maximum vapor and gas protection, a fully encapsulated Level A suit with an SCBA system is required.

Hazmat protection level and ensemble compatibility

When worn with a powered air-purifying respirator (PAPR) or air-purifying respirator, the HAZ-SUIT functions as a Level C hazmat suit. When paired with a self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA), it can serve as part of a Level B ensemble. For reference, the four standard hazmat protection levels are:

• Level A: fully encapsulating suit with SCBA — maximum skin and respiratory protection.
• Level B: high respiratory protection with a non-encapsulating suit and SCBA.
• Level C: air-purifying respirator or PAPR with chemical protective clothing.
• Level D: basic protective clothing with minimal hazard protection.

The HAZ-SUIT integrates with MIRA Safety gas masks, full-face respirators, gloves, boots, and ChemTape for a complete protective ensemble. ChemTape is recommended at the wrists, ankles, and face interface to create the tightest possible seal.

Physical properties and construction

The suit's multi-layer barrier laminate is built for durability in debris-filled and unpredictable environments. Seams are heat-sealed and taped to form a consistent barrier throughout. Physical test data on the fabric:

Shelf life and storage

Long-term aging tests show the HAZ-SUIT's barrier fabric retains full performance for decades when stored correctly. A coverall using twenty-year-old HAZ-SUIT fabric was tested against the complete ASTM F1001 list of 21 chemicals with no breakthrough in more than 480 minutes, and the aged fabric still met manufacturing specifications for physical properties. MIRA Safety considers the shelf life of the HAZ-SUIT to be undetermined — it can be used as long as it passes visual inspection and, for vapor-protective configurations, the ASTM F1052 pressure test.

Suits should be downgraded to training use only when they no longer pass visual inspection or pressure testing. It is the wearer's responsibility to ensure all components — fabric, valves, zippers, seams, and suit-to-component interfaces — are in good working condition before each use.

Size guide

Suits are intentionally made to fit with room to move and allow layers of clothing underneath — chest and hip measurements are not factored into sizing. If you fall between sizes, size up. Contact us if you have questions about fit before ordering.

Frequently asked questions

What does the HAZ-SUIT protect against?

The HAZ-SUIT provides a barrier against hazardous chemicals, biological agents, and radioactive particulates. It has been tested against more than 125 chemical threats including chemical warfare agents (mustard gas, sarin, lewisite, VX) and toxic industrial chemicals. Paired with an appropriate respirator, gloves, boots, and ChemTape, it forms a complete protective ensemble for CBRN environments.

Does the HAZ-SUIT stop radiation?

It protects against alpha-emitting particulates and reduces contact with many beta-emitting contaminants by keeping radioactive fallout off skin and clothing. It does not block gamma or neutron radiation — gamma exposure is managed through time, distance, and shielding. A respirator is essential because radioactive dust cannot be removed from the lungs once inhaled.

Is the HAZ-SUIT reusable?

It can be decontaminated and reused when contamination is light and proper decontamination procedures are followed. For non-expert users, single-use is the safer practice — improper doffing can transfer contaminants. The suit cannot be laundered like ordinary clothing. Proper donning and doffing both require training.

Does the suit come with a gas mask, gloves, or boots?

No. This listing is for the HAZ-SUIT only. A gas mask, filter, CBRN gloves, CBRN boots, and ChemTape are each sold separately and are required to complete a functional CBRN protective ensemble.

Is the HAZ-SUIT safe for children?

Youth sizes (YS and YL) fit children from approximately 3'3" to 5'0". Because the suit is non-breathable by design, it raises core body temperature. Children must be monitored continuously, kept hydrated, and removed from the suit immediately if overheating is observed. Donning and doffing require adult supervision and prior training. Guardians accept full responsibility for safe use.

Can this be shipped anywhere in the US?

Yes. The HAZ-SUIT is a chemical protective garment, not body armor, and ships free to all US addresses including Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico. International shipping is available to 175 countries. Export regulations may apply for international orders.
