+ 1. What is Inherent Flame-Resistant (FR) Clothing?
Inherent FR clothing is made from fibers that are naturally flame-resistant. Unlike treated fabrics, the flame-resistant properties are built into the fabric at the fiber level, meaning they do not wash out or degrade over time.
+ 2. How does Inherent FR differ from treated FR clothing?
Inherent FR fabrics have built-in flame resistance, so their protective properties last for the garment’s lifetime. Treated FR fabrics, on the other hand, have a flame-resistant chemical treatment applied to the fabric, which can wear off after repeated washing.
+ 3. What are the benefits of Inherent FR Clothing?
Inherent FR clothing offers permanent flame resistance, enhanced durability, and often increased comfort, as these fabrics are typically lighter and more breathable than treated options. They are also resistant to chemical washing and maintain their protective qualities longer.
+ 4. Can Inherent FR Clothing be washed at home?
Yes, most inherent FR garments can be washed at home, but it’s important to follow the manufacturer’s care instructions to avoid damage. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, which can affect fabric integrity.
