SARATOGA® Protective Overgarments
Mission-specific outer protective garments built on BLÜCHER's sorptive composite technology. They provide broadband protection against chemical warfare agents and other hazardous substances in gaseous, liquid and aerosol form. Stretch materials and lightweight fabrics maintain operational effectiveness in all climatic conditions.
SARATOGA® Protective Duty Uniforms
Integrated protective uniforms that combine CBRN protection with everyday military or police workwear functionality. Designed so that personnel can carry out routine duties without donning separate overgarments, reducing the burden and time-to-protection in threat environments.
SARATOGA® Protective Undergarments
Base-layer garments incorporating sorptive composite materials, targeting specialist users such as EOD teams, special forces, pilots and vehicle crews who require skin-level CBRN protection under their standard kit. Stretchable aerosol-protective fabrics allow close fit and freedom of movement.
SARATOGA® Complete Skin Protection
Hand, foot and full-body coverage products that close the gaps left by overgarments and undergarments, delivering end-to-end dermal protection against CBRN threats. Used to complete a layered protection system when the mission calls for maximum skin coverage.
About
Blücher GmbH, headquartered in Erkrath near Düsseldorf, Germany, has been developing and manufacturing CBRN (chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear) protective clothing for over 50 years. Founded in 1969 by Hasso and Hubert von Blücher, the company builds its entire SARATOGA® product range around high-performance spherical adsorbents produced at its own facility in Premnitz, Brandenburg. Research, development and sales are run from Erkrath, with manufacturing and quality assurance across three sites in Germany.
