The new iQ Series is set to rock the world of protective workwear wearability unlike ever before -- thanks to a scientifically engineered new breed of comfortable FR apparel. Not only will attendees be able preview iQ Series garments, but Bulwark also plans to give attendees an exclusive look at the paradigm-shattering science from its co-development partner, Milliken& Company.

"This is not the next evolution in FR," says Robert Grimes, managing director of Bulwark. "This is total revolution. Our partners at Milliken have literally invented an entirely new chemistry, which allows us to achieve an entirely new level of comfort."

That game-changing chemistry (Dual Elemental Protection) enables polyester to enter the protective apparel fold unlike ever before. "That's obviously a very provocative statement, as evidenced by the FR industry's decades-long aversion to polyester given its melting point," says Milliken's Development Manager Travis Greer.

"However, iQ's chemistry protects poly from melting by doing something very unique, deep inside the fiber. This allows us to finally embrace polyester and all of its performance characteristics, without compromising wearer safety."

"It's lighter than any other FR apparel on the market. It's more breathable. It wicks away moisture faster so that it can evaporate quicker. It's incredibly soft. It looks and acts like performance apparel – it's mind-blowing stuff," adds Derek Sang, Bulwark's technical training manager. "The leaders in safety deserve to see just how we did it."
