What Do The Insulated Flame Resistant Work Uniforms Actually Contain?
A lot of talk has been made about insulated flame resistant workwear in recent times, especially in places where there are fire hazards to the workers. Actually speaking, insulated flame resistant workwear has only entered into the market in recent years and people still dont know much about how effective they are. Do they really keep flames away as they promise to do? And what do they actually contain?
Typically, the insulated flame resistant work uniforms are made with a fabric known as INDURA with a fireproof lining on the inside. INDURA is a recent patent, which contains a blend of cotton and nylon in a fixed ratio. They are present to the extent of 88% and 12% respectively, and both fabrics have a job to perform. The nylon used in these insulated flame resistant work uniforms is the part that is effective in keeping the flames away. This nylon is known as the high tenacity nylon. The cotton forms the very important task of keeping the fabric as natural as possible, and also providing with a passage of air through the fabric due to the inherent porosity of the material.
