Carrington Textiles, one of Europe’s largest workwear suppliers, will display ground-breaking flame retardant products at the upcoming SICUR trade show during February 20-23 in Madrid, Spain. The show showcases products, equipment and services across three core segments - security and defence, fire prevention and emergency services, and safety at work.

Europe’s leading producer of flame retardant (FR) fabrics, Carrington will return to the show to demonstrate the award-winning Flametougher 280AS and Flamestat Satin 225 Pro2, as well as Flametech 300 AS.

Carrington’s FR range has been designed to meet the increasing demand for multipurpose workwear fabrics. Combined, the range offers a solution to conditions faced in nearly every environment - whether workers are looking for a lightweight and breathable fabric that can stand up to industrial laundering, or one with both flame retardant and waterproof properties.

Chris Schoonjans, export sales director at Carrington Textiles said: ‘‘We’re committed to advancing worker protection and wellbeing wherever possible. It’s exciting to return to SICUR to showcase how we’re harnessing some of the latest innovations in technology to do exactly that, giving workers a versatile fabric that can face multiple demands.’’

A range of fabrics that meet the needs of multiple industries across general workwear will also be on show, including the Stretch fabric. Launched last year, the Stretch range combines the tenacity of polyester and the breathability of cotton to produce a yarn engineered to give permanent elasticity – meeting the demand for garments with built-in comfort.
