A: This jacket is made of 100% cotton. The cotton is treated with PYROVATEX®, a proven flame retardant treatment for cotton.
PYROVATEX®
treated fabrics offer the best overall flame protection available for cotton, as proved by comprehensive testing in line with international flame retardant standards.
treated fabrics barely shrink when exposed to heat and flames, thereby ensuring that the skin is not exposed to hazardous conditions.
treated cotton, unlike synthetics, will not melt in the presence of heat and flames. Melted cloth presents a risk to the wearer.
treated fabrics afford excellent thermal protection when heat is an added danger.
