The Czech TFA National Team drove into the competition in specially-designed, customised firefighting clothing - GoodPRO FR 4 FireBull supplied by Vochoc, integrating Lenzing FR fibres.
Vochoc is one of the leading manufacturers of protective clothing, whose clothing feature a large share of Lenzing FR fibres.

“Flame-resistant Lenzing FR fibre is used in numerous applications, providing optimal protection against various sources of heat,” Lenzing informed.
“Unique heat insulation properties combined with permanent flame resistance make Lenzing FR the preferred heat protection fibre,” Lenzing said.
“Due to the natural origin of Lenzing FR in light of the fact that the fibre is produced from wood, it boasts good moisture management, thus reducing the deadly risk of heat stroke,” the fibre producer added. (AR)
