Kit leaves service after every fire
Contaminated PPE is taken out of use, cleaned and inspected before it is worn again. The more fires, the more sets are in the pipeline at once.

Why continuity matters
A firefighter responds best with clean, serviceable protective kit. Every time a set goes for cleaning, another is already in place.
Keeping it available is a duty
Employers must provide protective equipment and keep it maintained and in good repair.
A clean set keeps the crew whole
When the clean set is there at the start of a shift, the whole crew starts together. Continuity is the requirement, not a feature.
Vorrex is designed around it
Its first rule: one full clean set per firefighter is the floor, and two is the target. Every other part of the system serves that rule.
Built for the job
PPE laundries run this work on general laundry or warehouse software, or on paper. Vorrex is the system built for it.
Built for the protection standards
Every step, from collection to return, follows the structure of ISO 23616.
Enhanced inspection checklists
Each garment type has its own checklist, and findings are marked on that garment's drawing.
Scan and put, scan and do
One scan tells the operator what to do next and where the garment goes. The system decides, the operator confirms.
Built for the standard, not adapted to it.
What it makes easier
Much of the work in PPE laundries is done by hand today. Vorrex gives each manual step a matching step that the system records.
- Manual ticketsPaper tags travel with the kit.A scan at every stepEvery garment carries its own tag. Each station scans it in and out, so its position is always known.
- Tracking by siteGarment location and ownership are known by the people on each site.One live picture of the hubEvery cage, batch and garment on one map.
- Shift readinessA firefighter arrives and checks that the clean set is there.Exceptions firstExceptions rise to the top of the board, so every clean set is ready for its shift.
- Paper archivesInspection and repair records are kept in folders.Inspection on the garment's own drawingFindings are marked on that garment type. Pass, repair or condemn follows ISO 23616.
- Driver roundsRounds are planned from memory.Rounds built in, deliveries provenThe driver app plans the round and records each handover with a photo.
Who it serves
The laundry
Runs the floor, with every garment, batch and round on one live picture.
The fire service
Sees where its kit is, and has the records the standard asks for.
The firefighter
Finds a clean, inspected set ready for the next shift.
How it works
Shaped by the standard
Collection, cleaning, inspection, repair, release and return, step by step. Every record is tied to a scan, an operator and a time.
One record per garment
One part of the system owns each garment's status, so its history has one author.
Tested before it is claimed
Each promise is written as an automated test, and garments are run end to end before anything ships.
Delivered per customer
Each customer gets its own deployment, set up around how its operation runs.
What we do not claim
- Vorrex is software. It is not certified to ISO 23616, because the standard applies to the service.
- It does not certify laundries or replace the inspector. It gives the laundry the records.
