A new innovation in fire-fighting, the Alternative Concepts Water Jacket^TM, is coming soon.

The Water Jacket is a personal fire-suppression device worn by professional and private fire-fighters for combatting grass fires, managing controlled burns and for 'mopping up' operations after major fires. It also has applications as an agricultural spraying device.

The Water Jacket's major feature is its superior ergonomics. It is far more comfortable to wear that any existing fire-fighting napsack on the market today, and offers many additional benefits:

• Comfortable to wear. There are no pressure points and the weight of the unit is distributed over the wearers natural centre of gravity.
• Can be folded and stowed in a smaller space when not in use.
• Can be refilled by the wearer without the need to remove it.
• Offers body-cooling and heat-shielding benefits in hot conditions.
• More compact, lightweight for shipment in bulk and warehouse storage.
• Brightly coloured for increased visibility in dangerous situations

This product has the potential to replace all other similar devices on the market today. International distribution inquiries are welcome.
