Alsico is proud to be a member of the Nomex® Partner Programme, a carefully selected network of customer-orientated and progressive fabric/garment manufacturers whose fabrics and garments pass the stringent quality control ofDuPont™, and who are empowered to provide you the right product performance and service level.
Nomex® is an inherently flame-resistant, high temperature resistant fibre that will not melt, drip or support combustion in the air. Garments made from Nomex® fibres also protect against the potentially lethal hazard of arc flash. An arc flash presents a very serious hazard because of the risk of severe burn injuries caused by intensive heat.
When exposed to this intense heat, Nomex® fibre carbonises and thickens. This increases the protective barrier between the heat source and the wearers skin and helps minimise burn injuries.
