Fit for action

摘要

When it comes to good-quality PPE, the key elements for keeping firefighters safe are fabric, design and fit. Good PPE starts with cutting-edge fabric. A select combination of fabrics can provide resistance to fire, increased breathability, control of moisture, and are lighter weight. Innovations from leading fibre and fabric manufacturers, such as WL Gore, Hainsworth, PBI Performance Products and DuPont, mean that PPE manufacturers can produce multi-layered garments that protect from the inside and out.
