Our special selection of fabrics are made from engineered advance fiber
yarns with high degree of thermal stability and flame resitant properties.
The unique molecular structure of these yarn fibers makes them naturally
flame resistant and minimize burn injuries by creating a protective barrier
between the heat source and the wearer’s skin.
In addition to the more than three million firefighters worldwide who are
protected by apparel made with Nomex , there are millions of other
®
people around the globe, including military personnel, police officers,
auto racing teams and industrial workers, who rely on the inherent heat
and flame resistant properties and durability of Nomex fiber to help keep
®
them safe from the everyday hazards they face on the job.
Nomex also plays a critical role in helping to protect and improve the
®
performance of a wide variety of things that are essential to our way
of life, such as mass transit vehicles, wind turbine systems, aircraft
components, electrical transformers and automotive components.
