Designed to adapt

TenCate Protective Fabrics Defender® M is developed to serve as the ideal component to our family of highly effective, protective fabrics for the military. Combining flame resistance, durability and breathability, Defender® M sets the standard for military fabrics today.

As an everyday performance fabric, Defender® M is lightweight, breathable and uses Coolderm™ technology to wick moisture and perspiration away from the skin, minimizing discomfort in high-heat environments. Inherently FR, this proprietary blend, including Lenzing® FR fibre, is created to give troops an extra margin of protection.

Once the heat source is removed, Defender® M extinguishes itself quickly. No matter how many times the uniform is laundered or how long it is worn, the patented FR qualities of our Defender® M will not wash away or wear out.

Responding to the unique needs of the military, our new research and development around the revolutionary Defender® M fabric includes the integration of an innovative, anti-static fabric designed specifically for military and air crews called StaticSHEILD™.
