Manufacturing Personal Protective Equipment Dryers Since 1989

About Williams Direct Dryers

In 1989 our first production model boot dryer was built for a ski rental operation. This was quite an achievement, because in those days nobody believed that drying boots was needed. Today there are very few rental operations that don’t understand the importance of dry boots. The same can be said of other people who wear their boots to work!

PPE Dryers for First Responders

Now we are building PPE Dryers™ for First Responders. But the one thing that is still in common with that very first dryer (which by the way is still operating) is quality. We are proud of our high standards, attention to detail, and innovative ideas.

Our customer base reads like a “Who’s Who” – NASA, the US Military, Canadian Military, fire departments both large and small, major industrial users, 5-star resorts, national professional sports teams, and many satisfied individual customers.

We are customer-driven. Many of our product lines have been developed after satisfying a request from a single client. And dryers are not a sideline for us. They are our only business, and we take that very seriously!

Ken Freiburger, Chief

Walkerton Fire Dpt, ON

This unit is doing a fantastic drying job. The gear feels like it was naturally dried which leaves it soft and plyable. After our washing and drying you would think the gear was new right out of the bag.

Mike LaPlante, Assistant Chief

Farmingdale VFD (ME)

The PS2 fits our needs quite well. Thank you!

Dan Hoff, Chief

York Area United Fire Rescue (PA)

Our dryers all work beyond expectations. Wet is dry in no time. We wash our gear more often and the service from Williams and Jon Kugler has been great.

Richard Oakes, Chief of Department

Vinton FD (VA)

The drying time and safety you have given us is perfect. No doubt we made the right choice in purchasing your dryer.

Lou Brungard, Fire Chief

Our PS4 dryer has our gear ready in hours. From laundering to drying we are complete in 3 hours. It shows the quality, craftsmanship and commitment of Williams to firefighter safety.
