Don’t get burned 🔥
Here’s What “FR” Really Means 🔥
Flame-resistant (FR) garments are specially designed to protect wearers from injuries caused by exposure to flames, electrical arcs, and other thermal hazards. Unlike regular clothing, FR apparel is made from materials that self-extinguish when the ignition source is removed, significantly reducing the risk of severe burns and injuries. These garments are a critical safety measure in industries such as utilities, oil and gas, and manufacturing—where workers are regularly exposed to high-risk environments. Wearing FR clothing not only enhances personal safety but also ensures compliance with workplace safety standards and regulations, helping to protect both employees and organizations.
At ServiceWear Apparel, we understand the importance of dependable, high-quality FR garments in keeping your team safe. With that, our valued partnership with Workwear Outfitters allows us to provide garments from trusted manufacturers like Bulwark who offer a wide range of certified FR apparel that meets industry standards and provides long-lasting protection.
