MICROGARD® FR is a flame retardant material designed to be worn over woven thermal protective garments such as NOMEX® or PYROVATEX®, offering protection from particulates and pressurised liquid spray without compromising worker protection in the event of a flash fire.
- Flame retardant treated Sontara/wood pulp/polyester fabric with good barrier to particulates and low level liquid spray
- Air and water vapour permeable (breathable) to help reduce the risk of heat stress
- Optimised body fit improves wearer comfort and safety
- Elasticated 2-piece hood, wrists, waist and ankles
- External overlocked, stitched seams
MICROGARD® FR offers wearers protection from liquid chemicals to EN Type 6 and particulates to EN Type 5, and peace of mind to workers in potentially explosive/flammable environments. To decrease the risk of burn injury wear over thermal protective workwear.
Typical applications include: Oil and petrochemicals, petroleum distribution and processing, utilities.
Certifications: Type 5/6, EN ISO 14116 (index 1/0/0), EN 1073-2, EN 1149-5; Cat. III
Attention: MICROGARD® FR should never be worn in isolation for flame retardant protection. Always wear over the top of garments which achieve EN ISO 14116 Index 2 or above.
