inherently fire-resistant fabric

MARLAN®, an inherently flame retardant fabric used in protective clothing against aluminium molten metal splashes

Properties:

*Developed to protect workers in aluminium foundries, even in high critical areas
*Inherently flame retardant meaning that protection is not reduced through continuous use or washing
*Made up of natural fibres, the characteristics of which give
**Protection: molten metal splashes simply slide off the fabric instead of sticking to it
