Virginia Beach, Va. (June 2019) – Morphix Technologies®, an innovator in the science of detection devices for dangerous chemicals, will be exhibiting at the 2019 International Hazardous Materials (HazMat) Response Teams Conference, June 13 – 16, 2019 at the Hilton in Baltimore, Maryland. Morphix Technologies will be exhibiting its TraceX® Explosive Detection Kit and its Chameleon® Chemical Detection Armband at Booth #514.
“The Hazmat Response Teams Conference is the premier conference in the United States for hazardous materials responders and we look forward to exhibiting what the TraceX and Chameleon detection devices can do to aid hazmat response teams in today's challenging environment,” commented Kimberly Pricenski, vice president of sales and marketing for Morphix Technologies.
The TraceX Explosive Detection Kit is an affordable and easy-to-use product that aids in the detection of major explosive material threats and their precursors in a single test without exposing the kit to contamination or the user to dangerous chemicals. It was developed by Morphix Technologies under contract from the U.S. Department of Defense and meets their demanding requirements. It is small enough to fit in a cargo pocket, lightweight and rugged. Each kit comes in its own disposable protective plastic case, so the handler will be ready to use it when needed and is shelf stable for 24 months. With a single swab, the TraceX Explosive Detection Kit detects all the major families of explosive materials and their precursors.
The Chameleon Chemical Detection Armband is an easy-to-use, inexpensive, wearable, reusable armband that can hold up to 10 cassettes, each of which detects a particular toxic chemical and changes color upon detection. One color indicates the absence of toxic gas. When two colors appear in the window, the user knows it is time to take action. Designed for use in the Arctic, tropical and desert conditions, the Chameleon Chemical Detection Armband can even be immersed in water. Morphix Technologies has prioritized its product development based on the advice of the U.S. military and law enforcement agencies, so the Chameleon Chemical Detection Armband cassettes are available for many of the high-risk Toxic Industrial Chemicals (TICs) identified by the U.S. government. It has also been approved by the U.S. SAFETY Act of the Department of Homeland Security as an anti-terrorist technology.
The HazMat Response Teams Conference is a four-day event offering hands-on training across a range of essential topics, including biothreat response and sample collection, incident management best practices, chemical and physical properties of hazardous materials and recognizing and responding to commercial explosive incidents. The HazMat Response Teams Conference is powered by the International Association of Fire Chiefs (IAFC), which represents the leadership of over 1.2 million firefighters and emergency responders. IAFC members are the world’s leading experts in firefighting, emergency medical services, terrorism response, hazardous material spills, natural disasters, search and rescue, and public safety legislation.The IAFC's Hazardous Materials Committee provides technical expertise related to hazardous material emergency response and promotes nationwide efforts to provide support to the hazardous materials emergency response community through education and public policy.
