THE TRUSTED BRAND IN PROTECTIVE APPAREL
ARE YOU PROTECTED?
Flame-resistant (FR) clothing is an essential protection measure for anyone who works on job sites or with equipment that comes with potential hazards like fire, combustion or electrical arcs. However, protection varies based on the type of clothing. The wearer must understand how the FR clothing selected, can or cannot protect them.
There are many jobs and processes which require you to wear flame resistant clothing to protect you while carrying out hazardous tasks. These come in the form of coveralls, jackets and pants that are designed for the harshest environments in a range of colors, and can either be worn all day or just when dealing with specific hazards.
Work environments that have a risk of explosions, radiant heat or hazards such as liquid, chemicals, dust or particulates are the most common situations that require a particular form of FR protective wear. With levels of protection varying to your requirements, the garments can protect the wearer from exposure to heat, fire, chemicals, electrical arcs, molten metal splashes and welding processes.
