The world’s top athletes wear high-performance fabrics to optimize their competitiveness and have better concentration on the task in front of them. Can high performance FR fabrics help your employees be safer, more focused and achieve a better safety culture?
Safety culture is the attitude, beliefs, perceptions and values that your employees share in relation to safety in the workplace. High performance fortifies strong safety cultures. In terms of FR fabrics, high performance is a term used to describe moisture wicking technology. These specialized fabrics have been around for more than 20 years. They were created to boost an athlete’s performance in extreme outdoor situations, keeping them drier and cooler in hot conditions and warmer drier in cold weather. The challenge is to understand the science behind the fabric, so it can be applied to workers – and benefit your safety culture.
