Denver, CO — Protecto Wrap Company, a leading manufacturer of construction products, has introduced Protecto Extrication Wrap™, a new high performance self adhering membrane that protects First Responders as well as collision victims from sharp metal and glass edges.
Upon arrival at an accident scene, Emergency Workers can quickly assess the situation using Protecto Extrication Wrap to harden the path of egress for safe rescue operations. Protecto Extrication Wrap is easy to use; just peel and stick. The thin conformable facer allows the user to quickly cover sharp irregular areas that could potentially cause greater injury. Protecto Extrication Wrap can be used to hold broken glass together for safe and efficient removal.
Protecto Extrication Wrap adheres to steel, aluminum, glass, vinyl, plastic, wood as well as almost any painted or unpainted surface. This high performance safety wrap protects First Responders and Emergency Personnel from sharp edges caused by auto collisions, collapsed buildings, disentanglement tactics and is approved for Urban Search and Rescue Operations. 
Despite the fact that the product has only recently been introduced, Protecto Extrication Wrap is already highly in demand for Extrication Protection by Professional First Responders. The Extrication Wrap is economical and comes in 12” x 50’ rolls. One roll lasts through many extrication procedures. Product information is available at www.extricationwrap.com.
