Hi-vis heat protection
November 1st 2009 There is an increasing demand from
industrial workers and contractors
operating in high risk areas to wear
an EN471 (high visibility) compliant
garment that has the additional
benefits of heat and flame protection.
Using Nomex fibre, DuPont
Personal Protection has developed a
yellow high visibility solution called
Nomex ProVis: this is said to offer
inherent protection from heat and
flame, from molten metal splashes,
and from the heat of an electric arc;
it is anti-static and performs in
environments where high day light
visibility is required.
Nomex ProVis is based on an
engineered blend solution
manufactured with a DuPont
proprietary spinning technology. It
provides equivalent thermal and
physical properties to Nomex
Comfort fabrics, in combination
with the additional requirements for
EN471 high visibility yellow. More articles from Dupont Personal Protection: |
