The practical CBRN DEFENSE files include the national guide, the glossary, the 72-hour emergency kit, business continuity, FFP2/FFP3 masks, biological decontamination, nuclear containment and the choice of chemical PPE.
Why organize the guides by situation
An NRBC subject can quickly become confused if everything is mixed up. The files therefore separate the needs: understanding a risk, preparing a kit, choosing respiratory protection, organizing an activity or managing suspicious contamination.
On a sensitive subject, this clarity is essential. Each CBRN DEFENSE page reminds you of the limits of the equipment, the importance of the authorities and the prevention perimeter.
The guides are structured with clear titles, frequently asked questions, a glossary, official sources, short paragraphs, useful links and easy-to-read summaries.
Available files
The CBRN France guide serves as the main hub. The CBRN Glossary defines terms. The 72-hour emergency kit guide links general preparation to NRBC scenarios. The business continuity guide speaks to companies, ERPs and communities.
The pages FFP2/FFP3 masks, Hantavirus biological decontamination, nuclear containment, chemical PPE, fires, smoke and forest fires target longer intentions. They reinforce the existing pillar pages without competing with them.
This organization allows you to start from a concrete need, then to join the purchasing guides, risk families, the directory of authorities and the glossary.
Choose the right file without getting lost in the technique
The simplest thing is to start from the situation you are trying to resolve. For a cut or an evacuation, the file on the 72 hour kit constitutes a good basis. For risky cleaning, suspicious dust or a chemical product, the pages devoted to decontamination and PPE provide more precise guidelines.
Each file can be read independently. The boxes give the essentials, then the explanations develop the reasoning, the limits of the material and the points to check. The associated links then allow you to go to a more specialized page without having to browse the entire site.
In the event of a real emergency, this library never replaces a call for help. It is used to prepare decisions in advance, to understand the vocabulary used by the authorities and to ask better questions to a professional.

Decision order
Alert, protect yourself, then equip yourself.
Quick check before you need it
- Identify the most likely scenario for the home or activity.
- Note vulnerable people, treatments, animals and housing constraints.
- Check the official instructions and useful numbers on paper.
- Test the equipment in a normal situation and read each notice.
- Plan an inspection date rather than accumulating equipment.
What priority depending on the situation?
| Situation | Priority | Vigilance point |
|---|---|---|
| Immediate danger | Move away, alert, follow emergency services | Do not try to identify or treat alone. |
| Short break | Light, information, telephone, water | Preserve the battery and avoid flames. |
| Extended event | Rotation of reserves and family plan | Reassess with the information local. |

Where to start?
Start with the national guide if you are new to the subject, or with the file corresponding to your needs: kit, mask, confinement, decontamination or professional activity.
Why integrate official sources ?
The sources reinforce confidence, limit errors and remind you of the instructions to follow in the event of an alert or serious doubt.
Do these files replace the old pages?
No. They complete the existing pages with useful links, definitions and more precise guides.
Should we read all the files?
No. First read the guide corresponding to your situation, then open the associated pages only if you need to compare equipment or find out more about instructions.
