100% FR Cotton (9.0oz / 305gsm)

100% FR Cotton fabric delivers dual-hazard protective performance combined with the comfort of natural fibres. Developed under the NSA umbrella, this specialised material undergoes advanced flame retardant treatments that chemically bond directly to the Cotton fibres, ensuring that its protective properties remain permanent and will not wash or wear out over the life of the garment. When exposed to extreme temperatures or an arc flash, the fabric creates a stable carbon char layer and self-extinguishes rapidly rather than melting or dripping, preventing severe secondary burns.

The fabric's vibrant Orange colour serves as a critical safety feature, maximising visibility for industrial personnel operating around moving vehicles, heavy equipment and low-light environments. Despite its tough, heavy-duty protective nature, the 100% FR Cotton construction preserves the natural breathability, soft texture and moisture absorption of premium traditional Cotton. By blending visibility features, arc flash safety standards and irritation-free daily comfort, this specialised material represents a premium choice for high-risk work environments.
