Flame Resistant Shirts

Working Men who work on the railroad, at paint and pigment factories, or with flammable substances like pharmaceuticals, flour, and saw dust, should think long and hard about the hazards they face. Flame Resistant (FR) Shirts really are a must when you work with welding equipment, in environments where quick fires are a threat, or around flammable... chemicals. They provide an extra layer of fire-resistant protection between you and sparks, flashes and flame. The government recommends wearing layers of FR clothing when you work on dangerous job sites. Although you could wear 100% cotton clothing under a FR shirt, it's a better idea to layer flame resistant garments like t-shirts, button-down shirts and sweatshirts (WPS carries them all!). Many companies make flame resistant shirts. National Safety Apparel, Dickies, Polar King, Bulwark, Carhartt and even Wrangler make FR clothing that protects and is comfortable for work. Most FR garments are made of a special fabric blend that puts flame resistant protection on the outside and soft fabric near your skin. Although it manages to stay comfortable for a surprisingly long time, FR clothing in general shouldn't be washed at home. Washing reduces its longevity. Whether you're looking for something for work or for the work you do at home, we've got it. Check out all the flame-resistant clothing WPS carries and make sure you're covered.
