Westex Ultrasoft AC flame-resistant fabric

Flame-resistant workwear is an essential piece of safety equipment for protecting workers exposed to heat, flames, arc flash and flash fire. It’s the last line of defence in these hazardous environments in the event an accident occurs.

The performance of flame-resistant (FR) clothing depends heavily on the fabric used to construct the garment. It must protect the wearer throughout the garment’s life yet be comfortable to wear so as to ensure it is worn throughout the working days, every week and all year round.

Westex UltraSoft AC is the latest fabric in the UltraSoft fabric line, delivering good Pima cotton comfort. The softness found in UltraSoft AC derives from a blend of 88% Pima cotton and 12% high tenacity nylon, as well as using the company’s advanced softening technology.

Like UltraSoft, the UltraSoft AC line is guaranteed flame resistant for the life of the garment in either high-temperature industrial or home-washing procedures. It also provides enhanced protection from electric arc and flash fire exposures, as well as multipurpose protection from electric arc flash, flash fire, molten ferrous metal and welding exposures.

Westex flame-resistant fabrics are distributed in Australia and New Zealand by Charles Parsons & Co.
