"Adding high-visibility offerings to the Gore FR Apparel portfolio brings an additional element of safety to what is already a best-in-class line of protective outerwear," said Sean McDearmon, sales leader for Gore FR Apparel. "Our products continue to ensure worker safety and comfort by enhancing visibility, increasing range of motion, minimising bulk, and reducing the effects of moisture build-up across a wide range of environmental conditions and varying work rates."
Made with Gore-TEX PYRAD fabric, this waterproof, windproof, breathable line of products provides an optimum combination of protection against flash-fire, petroleum, oil-based hazards, and hot liquids/steam without sacrificing comfort in a lightweight, low-bulk form.

Gore will be featuring the new line of Gore FR Apparel products with Gore-TEX PYRAD Fabric at the National Safety Council Congress in Indianapolis, IN during September 25-27. (SV)
