Air crew and traveller virus and disease protection product range launched by Pexa

As winter approaches Pexa, the leading supplier of chemical products to the aviation industry, is launching its campaign to promote the prevention of transmissible diseases often encountered during international travel by launching its range of PSA products designed to protect air crew and travellers.

The range includes a handy sized Universal Protection Kit (UPK) which contains a full set of protective materials to deal with in flight incidents of contact with body fluids such as vomit, urine and blood. The kit complies with ICAO recommendations and at least one kit can be carried on board each flight to allow air crew to deal with incidents and be protected against illnesses including TB, H1N1 and Ebola.

Insect bite protection is important to prevent tropical diseases such as malaria, dengue, yellow fever and chikungunya. PSA’s Skin 2P products provide a small insect repellent aerosol using Icaridin rather than DEET and an insecticide spray for clothes which kills insects especially around ankles arms and neck where biting can be common. Handy 30ml containers mean that the products can be carried in hand baggage. Crew and passengers can use the same products to protect them.

UK based Pexa, is the leading supplier of chemical products to the aviation industry and is the UK distributor for PSA, the French manufacturer of a wide range of aviation approved cleaners, disinfectants and insecticides.
