Customer reviews
Brandweer Amsterdam-Amstelland
"Interventions involving hazardous substances remain a little scary for most firefighters. Good to know that they can fall back on Kaleidos Lite, with the most important basic information on the home screen. Kaleidos is used by our fire brigades with enthusiasm. If more information is needed, a Dangerous Goods Safety Adviser is called in.”
