When thinking of wearing FRworkwear during the summer months, most people envision clothing that is hot, heavy, clingy, and doesn’t move well. These negative connotations and actual experiences are a root cause of work uniform non-compliance - not wearing your FRC when required. Yet this is entirely avoidable. Modern FR workwear garments breathe, move moisture, dry quickly, and protect the wearer from the elements.
The base layer, or the fabric that touches a person’s skin, is the most important FR clothing item within the summertime PPE wardrobe, since it is often the only layer worn to protect a person’s upper body, excluding the hands, neck and head. Highly technical outdoor industry-inspired fabric choices build garments that keep workers cool, calm and protected during the summer months.
