Tailored with MARKO® inherent flame retardant fabric, made by MARINA TEXTIL, it is a multistandard fabric designed to protect from fire (EN 11612), welding (EN 11611) and static electricity (EN 1149). The complements, like the thread in the seams, or the trimmings, are also flame retardant. Another feature of this fabric is that it absorbs sweat and eases its evaporation, increasing transpiration and providing an extra sensation of comfort to the welder.
