Project: Carry Bag for Rapid Intervention Team – RIT BAG – AC1735

Challenge

RIT Bags are used in emergency situations. Firefighters and EMTs use equipment to rapidly respond and help save lives. In this case, an air tank is thrown into an environment to assist with a victim’s breathing. The RIT Bag needs to transport this equipment while withstanding the harsh environment.

Solution

The RIT Bag uses a combination of Cordura nylon and reflective trim to make the carry case for the Rapid Intervention equipment. We gave the RIT Bag a stiff frame and bottom, which allows the case to be slid across the ground to the needed location. Heavy-duty hardware ensures the ruggedness of the case.
