Defeat the Heat with DRIFIRE® FR Shirts and Pants

America’s armed forces regularly face dangerous situations. On top of enemy combatants, high-risk missions, and other human factors out of their control, they must also protect themselves against the elements of nature – primarily fire.

To shield themselves from severe burns, military members should take advantage of flame-resistant (FR) clothing.

Read on to learn more about this type of protective garment, why it's essential, and which DRIFIRE® FR pieces can help you defeat the heat!

What Is FR Clothing?

Flame-resistant clothing, also called FR clothing, refers to any apparel designed to minimize the damage caused by thermal exposure. These garments aim to protect wearers from hazards like flash fires and electric arc flashes.

Generally speaking, FR protection works in two ways: first, by creating clothing made of fabric that resists flames better than everyday textiles; and second, by having said fabric self-extinguish if ignited.

There's a big difference between flame-resistant clothing and fireproof clothing. In extreme conditions, it's indeed possible for FR garments to catch fire. However, because there's no such thing as apparel that's 100% fireproof, clothes with flame resistance help a wearer escape situations before conditions meet those extreme levels.

Why Is FR Clothing Important?

Flame-resistant clothing helps prevent significant injury and saves lives.

According to occupational health and safety experts, the most severe burn injuries and fatalities are caused by non-FR clothing igniting and continuing to burn. When individuals opt to wear FR apparel, they provide themselves with a layer of safety against thermal harm.

Soldiers aren’t the only ones who can benefit from FR clothing. Those who should wear FR clothing while on the job include:

  • Firefighters
  • Electricians
  • Miners
  • Lab researchers
  • Chemical plant workers
  • Oil and gas workers
  • Paper and pulp workers
