DuPont unveils new fire and chemical protection garment

22/05/2008
DuPont has launched the Tychem BR garment, which is lighter weight and less cumbersome than a traditional fully encapsulated suit. It provides increased vapour and liquid protection, is easier and faster to change into and is more cost-effective than traditional garments.

The garment meets the National Fire Protection Agency’s highest level of protection within the 1994 Standard, offering first responders a higher level of protection when dealing with chemical, biological or radioactive incidents.

Tychem BR fabric has been successfully tested against more than 240 chemicals. It provides durability and tear-, puncture- and abrasion-resistance. It is specifically engineered for ease of putting it on and taking it off, making it easy for first responders to complete their work in challenging situations.
