Both surface but especially underground rescue activities in industrial environments presenting risk of explosive / flammable or toxic gases, are difficult because of major risk of fires or explosions in a very short time. Dense smoke can make rescue work even more difficult and time becomes an extremely important factor, especially when workers are caught in the affected area and it is assumed that they could be alive. The technological development of last years has allowed the miniaturization of equipment and occurrence of new technologies whose implementation in rescue activities facilitates searching in damaged areas and locating the workers. The purpose of the paper is to present a series of equipment that can become useful in order to fit out rescue stations and train rescuers on how to use them. Industrial environments with potential toxic / explosive / flammable gases are very different both in terms of technology and intervention methods that rescuers will have to use in the event of a fire, explosion or toxic gas. However, there is a wide range of equipment and devices of recent emergence, usable in many industries, which can increase the safety of rescue teams and help reduce the response time to restore safety. Modern equipment also influences the structure of intervention teams by the fact that it sometimes requires specializations for exploitation. For this reason, knowledge of adequate equipment requires the co-optation in the rescue station of individuals with a certain degree of qualification necessary for operating equipment.
