Fire-Resistant Clothing

Fire-resistant clothing is specially designed to protect workers from the hazards of heat and flames. Made from materials such as Nomex, Kevlar, or FR-treated cotton, fire-resistant clothing is commonly worn by workers in industries like welding, firefighting, electrical work, and oil and gas operations. These garments are designed to self-extinguish when exposed to flames, reducing the risk of burn injuries. Fire-resistant clothing includes items like jackets, pants, coveralls, gloves, and shirts, each offering varying levels of protection depending on the material and construction. In addition to offering protection from direct flame exposure, fire-resistant clothing also provides a barrier against intense heat, reducing the risk of thermal burns. This clothing is often worn in combination with other PPE, such as flame-resistant gloves, boots, and face shields, to ensure comprehensive protection in high-risk environments.
