Fabric Information IGNIS Fabric is speci cally designed for the manufacture of garments used in close proximity to high intensity res. Extremely lightweight at 330g, and pliable, the IGNIS outer shell fabric is a metallised aluminium coatedmeta-para aramid fabric that is constructed from 95% Meta-aramid and blended with 5% Para-aramid. Providing full body coverage including the head, hands and feet, the Proximity garments provide excellent protection from radiant heat and high temperatures. Due to the high ambient temperatures that the wearer can be subjected to, it is recommended that the Ignis Proximity suits are worn with a breathing apparatus to provide breathing air at normal temperatures. The Proximity garments, certi ed to EN ISO 11612, are used for aircraft rescue, aircraft re ghting and proximity of high temperatures (but not entry into direct ame).

Kevlar® stitching throughout

Garment Bene ts The mirror-like surface re ects radiant heat away, allowing close ame proximity while reducing the rate of heat absorption that can lead to thermal fatigue. The integration of additional inner carbon felt linings ensure superior protection and performance in the extreme work environments faced by civilians, emergency service and military personnel. These garments are worn in industries such as aircraft rescue, aircraft re ghting, bulk ammable liquids and similar situations involving high levels of radiant heat.
