Saf Tech FR (Flame-Resistant) clothing is designed to protect against potentially fatal flash fire and arc flash events. FR clothing provides the worker a few seconds of necessary escape time by preventing immediate clothing ignition. The majority of severe and fatal burn injuries in these situations are due to clothing igniting and continuing to burn against the wearer and not from the exposure itself.
FR clothing is worn to increase the probability of survival. The aim in the design of both fabrics and apparel is to lower the risk of injury and possible death.
