Lasting looks

Durability is a top priority for firefighter gear, due to the frequent washing required to remove any potential toxic residue or contamination. This fabric made with DuPont™ Nomex® ensures colour fastness and retains impeccable looks, even after repeated and extended washes.

Light but strong

Weighing a mere 200 g/m2 with an excellent performance-to-weight ratio, this fabric delivers market-leading protection — maximising comfort on the job while lowering the risk of heat stress.

Stretch to the max

Outstanding diagonal stretch performance makes this fabric very flexible and adaptable to any job, perfect for all of the diverse interventions today’s firefighters face.
