The first step in adequately protecting your workforce is understanding the hazards and standards that apply to your industry, as well as the products available to address them. Drotex’s helpful FR Dictionary covers the flame-resistant (FR) clothing terms and acronyms you’ll need to know in order to make informed decisions and protect your workforce.
There are five parts of the flame-resistant clothing:General Terms,Fabric Terms,FR Standards,Electrical Hazard Terms and Flash Fire Terms.
Today we'll introduce the first part:general terms.
GENERAL TERMS
