Flame-retardant
finished fabrics

Fit for any purpose

The fabric technology of flame retardant finished fabrics explained

FR treated fabrics are based on cotton, blended with with polyester, para-aramid or polyamide. These fabrics get their FR property from the chemical treatment that is applied to the fabric.

This chemical treatment is executed in such a way that it fully penetrates the fibre and as such is bonded throughout the entire fabric. As a result of this treatment, the fabric becomes flame retardant and keeps this property during the lifetime of the garment.

We have the broadest FR portfolio in the market and our FR-treated fabrics are the well-established leader in FR-treated fabrics, thanks to their unique combination of high performance, exceptional comfort an excellent protection capabilities for various industrial sectors.

Below you can find our flame retardant fabric portfolio that provides a wide range of industrial safety fabrics that combine high-quality protection, comfort and durability.
