Flame Resistant Clothing: Types, Materials, and Care
1.

3. To save the body and life from the risk of flame and heat……
4. steel mill, molding factory, welding factory, glass factory
Electric Arc (electricians, electric utility lineman, etc.),
Flash Fire (refinery, chemical and pharmaceutical workers,
etc.)
Combustible Dust Explosion (workers in the paper and pulp
industry,
Food processing, paint, and many more industries).
5. Higher thickness
Lower compactness
More still air
More heat resistant
Thermal resistant 270 dg celsius for short period.
6. Woolen fabric of 540 GSM
Knit in structure
Normally flame retardent clothing are made from zirpro woolen
fabric and caliban finished cotton fabric which protect human
body from molten splinter of aluminium.
aramid,glass are used.
Aluminozed finish is also used.
7. FR: Flame Resistant. It refers to the ability of a material to self-
extinguish upon the removal of an ignition source.
FRC: Flame Resistant Clothing. It is quite common that safety
minded customers refer to Safety Garments or Flame Resistant
Apparel simply as “FRC.”
8. + + = Maximum
Protection
Base Layer Mid Layer Outer Layer
Three types FR clothing 1) one ply 2)two ply and 3) three ply
There is the three ply garments
9. Basically cotton garments are used as
base “protective” layer.
Base layer garments made of inherently
FR fibers will not burn, melt or ignite
when exposed to direct flame and have
exceptional electrical resistance.
These fabrics are comfortable, dry
quickly and wick moisture effectively,
even when worn in extreme conditions.
10. Inherently flame retardant, anti-
static, lightweight long sleeved
polo shirt. Ideal as a layering
system for additional
protection without compromising
on comfort, could also be worn as a
lighter weight more comfortable
layer underneath a jacket, fleece or
sweatshirt.
Made with Protal, Modacrylic fibre.
11. Flame retardant workwear needs to be hard
wearing, comfortable, cost effective and provide
suitable protection for the wearer.
There are lots of different cotton treated FR work
wear garments available on the market
Heavyweight cotton treated flame retardant and
anti-static coverall with FR reflective tape
12. The cloth is made from two ply zirpro wool fabrics; the outer ply
twill fabric of 290 GSM and inner ply is rib fabric of 230 GSM
show longer time flame retardency than 552 GSM single ply
zirpro wool fabric.
Zirpro wool
Glass fibre
Aramid
FR cotton
13. Ideally wash FR garments separately to
avoid damaging
the luminescent effect or wash them inside
out to reduce the abrasion on other
garments.
