DUPONT NOMEX FIRESUIT PANTS

The Dromex® DW-Nomex® inherent flame-resistant jacket and pants
construction is designed to protect the user from the hazards of fire
contact and reduce injury when working in hazardous environments.
These garments are suitable for use in industries such as wildland fires,
fire-fighting (non-structural and non-proximity), petro-chemical, utility
and chemical industries.
The Nomex® engineered knitted garment construction is lightweight with
wicking finishes for improved breathability and conforms to the latest
SANS 434 standard, providing the user with overall ultimate comfort and
protection.

The inherently flame-resistant fibres are materials that have the flameresistant properties built into their chemical structures.
The actual structure of the fibre itself is not flammable therefore these
properties can never be worn away or washed out.
When exposed to flame, the aramid fibre swells and becomes thicker,
forming a protective barrier between the heat source and the skin.
This protective barrier also stays supple until it cools, giving the wearer
vital extra seconds of protection to escape from the hazard.
The Nomex® fabric will not continue to burn or melt when the flame is
removed Nomex® fabric is also abrasion, tear and wear resistant and has a
long wear-life.
