CWD-1 and CWD-2 Detection Paper is designed to detect and differentiate between three of the deadliest groups of chemical warfare agents (CWAs): G agents (sarin, soman, tabun), V agents (VX Gas), and H agents (blister agents like mustard gas). CWD-1/2 can detect these elements in liquid form. CWD-1/2 is the world standard for CWA detection paper, and it comes in a small booklet that’s easy to use and transport.
Knowing what threats you’re facing is crucial to safely navigating any situation.
After all, different threats require different types and levels of protection, and your life could depend on deploying the correct protective equipment.
CWD-1/2 Detection Paper is designed to provide you with crucial knowledge about CWAs in less than a minute.
When exposed to as little as a single drop of G, V, or H-family CWAs, CWD-1/2 detection paper will instantly begin to change colour. The colour can then be matched to the attached colour guide to determine which threat you’re facing, which in turn, can guide your plan of action.
Each booklet of detection paper is compact enough to fit in a side pocket and comes packaged in a polyethylene bag to protect it from moisture or accidental exposure. Each booklet contains 12 sheets of detection paper and instructions (CWD-1 comes 25 sheets in a carton).
CWD-1/2 Detection Paper is an absolute necessity for CBRN protection and should be used in conjunction with MIRA Safety gas masks and protective equipment.
