Boosting Comfort Thermal Protection with Layered Fabric Technology

When it comes to protective clothing for high-risk industries, such as firefighting or electrical work, the balance between safety and comfort is crucial. Protection and comfort are, however, contradictory properties especially in the case of heat and flame protective clothing. There is a need to strike a balance between the garment’s heat and flame resistance and its permeability to water vapour and air.

One of the most effective ways to achieve this balance is by using layered fabrics in protective clothing. This system not only improves thermal protection but also contributes to the wearer’s overall comfort.
