Firefighting equipment manufacturer, Phenix Technology, Inc., has created an exclusive custom TL-2 leather firefighting memorial helmet in honour of the Charleston 9. This helmet was created exclusively for the Charleston Fire Department.

The exclusive helmet features a unique Charleston 9 logo on the rear brim that was created in memory the 9 Charleston firefighters that were lost on June 18, 2007, in the Sofa Super Store Fire. Each helmet created will feature a 3-digit serial number with the very first helmet starting at serial number 010. The first 9 helmets will be dedicated to the Charleston 9 and will be placed inside of a new Charleston fire station that will be built in the near future. These helmets will be exclusively manufactured for Charleston firefighters.

“Phenix Technology, Inc. was honoured to have been asked to create this helmet. It will serve as a constant vigil for those who were lost and as a symbol of remembrance for the amazing men and women of the City of Charleston Fire Department. May we never forget our brothers, and may their families find peace knowing how deeply each of them were loved and how much they are missed today,” said Angel Sanchez, Jr, Director of Global Operations for Phenix Technology, Inc. This helmet is now available exclusively to City of Charleston firefighters.
