Multinorm protection with Flexothane®
Within the Sioen PRO multinorm range, certain garments also make use of Flexothane® technology. These garments combine the trusted water- and windproof comfort of Flexothane® with additional layers of protection, such as flame-retardant or arc-flash resistance. This makes them suitable for high-risk environments where multiple standards of protection are required, without compromising on durability or wearer comfort.
Key aspects of the Sioen Flexothane® range include:
Breathable comfort: Knitted base absorbs perspiration, preventing clamminess and regulating body temperature.
Strong, supple and light: Resistant to heavy use, 150% stretchable, noiseless, and flexible for unrestricted movement.
Easy care: Resistant to oil, fuel and grease, with a smooth PU surface that wipes clean. Machine washable, with Flexothane® Kleen washable at 95°C.
Ecological by design: Produced without chloride, ensuring no harmful substances are released at disposal.
Triple transfer coating: Three thin PU layers provide superior coverage, ensuring garments stay drier and last longer.
