People working in any industry that has a hazard of clothing igniting should wear flame-resistant clothing. The bottom line is that FR Denim saves lives! Most serious burns from industrial mishaps are caused by regular work clothing igniting and burning off the wearer's back. Thousands of clothingrelated injuries due to fire occur each year. The most severe burns are often not caused by the original hazard, but rather are the secondary result of clothing igniting. FR Denim does not ignite and continue to burn. Even single-layer FR work Denim can significantly protect employees. FR Denim is essentially worn as insurance. In the unlikely event of a flash fire or electric arc flash or other catastrophe, FR work Denim reduces burn injury, provides escape time, and increases chances of survival. Even though a person caught in a flash fire or electric arc will likely have some injuries, FR Denim can dramatically reduce their severity. This can mean the difference between life and death. Survivors often consider burn injury treatment to be worse than the burn itself. Treatment and recovery is extremely painful and can take months if not years. Burn victims can be severely debilitated and permanently disabled. A survivor's quality of life is dramatically affected by the extent and severity of burn injury. FR Denim not only increases the chances of survival, but can significantly enhances the quality of life after the injury.
