Dickies® FR and Mount Vernon FR develop new flame resistant jeans
Workrite Uniform Co. developed a new Dickies FR denim jean line using Mount Vernon FR’s flame resistant (FR) fabric. The mid-weight denim collection features a 13-ounce FR fabric from Mount Vernon FR called Mustang Flex, combining the best in both protection and comfort. Mustang Flex is part of Mount Vernon FR’s extensive FR denim fabric collection, Phoenix FR.
“We always aim to provide consumers with garments that not only meet their needs for protection from hazards such as electric arc flash or flash fire, but also accommodate the comfort they want and deserve,” said Mark Saner, technical manager at Workrite Uniform Co. “Working with Mount Vernon FR has allowed us to create flame resistant clothing that offers the best of both worlds without tradeoffs in comfort, durability or protection.”
