HEAT SOURCE FIRE
Fire test passed with flying colors. Lenzing FR® offers anyone in the emergency services excellent protection from 2nd and 3rd degree burns. And it goes one step further since its physiological properties reduce the risk of heat stress and heat stroke.
Whenever fire is involved, safety has utmost priority. Lenzing FR® can be found wherever there is a need for flame resistance.
- Protection from 2nd degree and 3rd degree burns
- Improves the performance and comfort of 100% aramid garments
- Improves break open behavior
- Reduces the risk of heat stress and heat stroke
LENZING FR®UPGRADES ARAMID FIBERS
Optimum insulation properties.
The TPP values of Lenzing FR®are first rate and it considerably enhances the performance of aramid fibers. The break open behavior of protective clothing is improved following exposure to flames and heat. The skin continues to be protected.

Thermal insulation barriers are used in firemen’s jackets.
One common type is comprised of three layers of spunlace fleece (each layer being 80 g/m2). The following pictures show a typical result after performing the „TPP“-Test, EN ISO 9151. This test demonstrates that the thermal insulation function is enhanced with a blend of Lenzing FR®and aramid fibers.
