GLOBAL STANDARDS

FR and AR solutions are designed to meet or exceed international standards for the personal protection needs of workers, no matter where they work in the world. Consensus standards ensure products and services are safe, reliable and of good quality. Industry standards are responsible for maintaining uniformity in all areas across the globe.

INHERENT FR AND AR TECHNOLOGIES


Arc flash and flash fire events are unpredictable and can be fatal. That's why workers who face on-the-job threats of electric arc and flash fire hazards rely on solutions that do not ignite, melt or degrade in heat. Their properties are intrinsic, permanent and cannot be washed away or worn out. 

DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS

Dangerous substances such as industrial chemicals, molten metal, steam and hot water require the appropriate level of splash protection apparel to reduce hazardous substance exposure to the direct skin. Injuries sustained from these hazards are not only difficult to recover from, but they can also be deadly.
