A respirator isn’t enough to bridge the “Skin Gap.”

In construction and manufacturing, many view respiratory protection as the final line of defence. However, dermal absorption of toxins like silica and formaldehyde remains a critical pathway for occupational exposure. Contaminants settle on the skin and enter the bloodstream, significantly increasing the risk of occupational cancer.

With the 1st December 2026 deadline for new Workplace Exposure Limits (WEL) approaching, updating decontamination protocols is essential for WHS compliance and duty of care.

DeWipe Australasia offers the only 100% biodegradable decontamination wipes in Australasia where both the cloth and liquid are 100% biodegradable. Scientifically proven to remove 91% of harmful contaminants on a single pass*, our wipes are dermatologically rated “Excellent.”

*Single Pass as per ASTM D6661-17 methodology (a single back-and-forth motion using one wipe).*

When you’re on a mine rescue team, the emergency shouldn't follow you through the front door.

As we gear up for SAMERC 2026 (21st - 23rd October), we’re focusing on a critical message for every responder: ‘Don’t Bring the Emergency Home’, or in DeWipe language: "Wipe it off... Don't take it home".

Secondary exposure is a significant risk in the mining industry. Harmful toxins and carcinogens on your skin don’t just stay at the site: they hitch a ride on your clothes, in your ute, and straight to your family. Recognising this danger is a key part of every organisation's duty of care.

At -australasia-pty-ltd, we’re here to help you bridge the gap between the incident and the shower. Our 100% Biodegradable Wipes are scientifically proven to eliminate harmful dioxins and pollutants, ensuring you leave the risk behind.

We’re stoked to be the Sustainability Sponsors for SAMERC 2026. Come and visit us on the FRSA stand to see our decontamination solutions in action and learn how we’re supporting the mine rescue community in raising safety standards and protecting those who protect us.

Keep the danger on-site and your family safe.

Don't be fooled by the 'Methodology Trap' – and remember, Size Matters! 🛡️📏

When it comes to protecting your team from carcinogens, the science and the scale matter. Many wipes claim high removal rates, but they often require multiple wipes.

-australasia-pty-ltd is different. We remove 91% of harmful PAHs in a single pass*. And because our wipes are MASSIVE (including our Giant 60cm x 30cm XL Towel), that single pass covers way more skin.

"One wipe, total coverage." That's efficiency and protection you can count on.

Plus, we’re proud to be the only 100% biodegradable wipe in Australasia: both the cloth and the liquid break down completely. 🌿

Usage Tip: Do not fold the wipe. Using a fresh surface ensures you are effectively removing contaminants rather than spreading them.

Request a trial or a site review to see the difference 'Massive Coverage' makes.

*Single Pass as per ASTM D6661-17 methodology (a single back-and-forth motion using one wipe).*

Protect your workers. Protect our environment.

“After the smoke clears” is where the real risk often begins.

We’re proud to partner with FRSA Fire Rescue Safety Australia to address one of the most under-recognised challenges in emergency response - dermal exposure to carcinogens.

Industry workers, and especially firefighters and first responders, don’t just face risk at exposure or during the incident.

Contaminants like PAHs and dioxins remain on the skin, continuing to absorb long after the job is done.

That’s why effective, on-site decontamination is critical - not as an add-on, but as part of the standard operating procedure.

This is where we’re seeing real progress across the sector.

At FRSA, Duty of Care isn't just a phrase – it's our core mission. We're dedicated to ensuring Australia's first responders have the very best protection, both on the fireground and long after the smoke clears.

Occupational cancer is a serious risk for our frontline heroes. Exposure to harmful toxins, PAHs, and dioxins is an inherent part of the job, making immediate, effective decontamination essential.

That’s why we’ve partnered with De-Wipe Australasia to provide their scientifically proven, 100% biodegradable decontamination wipes. These wipes are a critical tool for on-site removal of carcinogens from the skin, helping fire and rescue services meet their WHS obligations and protect their crew’s long-term health.

By providing your teams with the right tools to eliminate toxins, you’re demonstrating a real commitment to their safety and future.

A respirator is vital, but for the '9 Silent Killers,' it’s only half the battle. While industry focus is on updated Safe Work Australia codes, we must address the 'forgotten exposure pathway': the skin.

Hazardous chemicals like Benzene, Chlorine, and Silica don't just threaten the lungs. Dermal absorption is a primary route for toxins to enter the bloodstream, yet it is often overlooked. When these substances settle on the skin, a mask provides no protection.

closes this safety gap. Our 100% Biodegradable Wipes are scientifically proven to remove 91% of harmful PAHs and dioxins on a single pass.

- Scientifically Proven: 91% removal rate (Manchester Metropolitan University).
- Dermatologically Rated: 'Excellent' for skin safety.
- 100% Biodegradable Wipes: Australasia’s only fully biodegradable solution.

Prioritising dermal decontamination helps organisations meet their duty of care and reduce occupational cancer risk.

*Single Pass as per ASTM D6661-17 methodology (a single back-and-forth motion using one wipe).

The PPE Paradox: Your safety gear protects you on the job, but it can become a hazard the moment you take it off.

When workers remove dust-covered overalls and masks, they risk secondary exposure through inhalation and skin contact. This critical 'transition' phase is often where decontamination fails.

Implementing an immediate wipe-down protocol BEFORE removing PPE is the only way to break the cycle of cross-contamination. provides the only 100% Biodegradable Wipes in Australasia, scientifically proven to remove 91% of PAHs on a *Single Pass as per ASTM D6661-17 methodology (a single back-and-forth motion using one wipe).

Additionally, De-Wipe is also scientifically proven to remove over 80% of industrial inorganic toxins, including Lead and Arsenic.

Don't let your safety gear become the source of the problem. Ensuring your team follows a strict decontamination procedure is a vital part of your duty of care and WHS obligations.

One simple rule to save lives: Wipe Before You Sip.

Exposure to hazardous dusts and Ultra Fine Particles (UFPs) isn't just about inhalation; ingestion is a major pathway for toxins. When workers grab a water bottle or a sandwich with hands that haven't been properly decontaminated, they are literally hand-feeding themselves carcinogens.

At -australasia-pty-ltd, we advocate for the 'Wipe Before You Sip' rule. A quick decontamination of the hands, face, and neck before every break is a non-negotiable step in a high-performing safety culture. Our 100% Biodegradable Wipes are scientifically proven to remove 91% of PAHs on a *Single Pass as per ASTM D6661-17 methodology (a single back-and-forth motion using one wipe), which provides a reliable barrier against dermal and accidental oral exposure.

Additionally, DeWipe is scientifically proven to remove over 80% of industrial inorganic toxins, including Lead and Arsenic.
