Bulwark, the world’s largest brand of flame resistant (FR) apparel, today announced the company’s plans to participate at the American Society of Safety Engineers’ Safety 2013 Conference in Las Vegas (Las Vegas Convention Center, June 24-27, 2013). A fantastic opportunity for “the FR outfit of No Compromise,” according to David Crace, VP of Marketing at VF Corporation (Imagewear).

“At Bulwark, we have come to think about ASSE's annual Safety show as our Super Bowl,” says Crace. “ASSE represents the very core of the Safety, Health & Environmental community, just as Bulwark represents the very core of FR. It’s an honor – and frankly, an obligation – for us to be there. To connect with safety managers on a 1:1 basis, to remind them of all the ways our obsessive vigilance can translate to their ultimate trust; and to show them where we as a brand, and the industry as a whole, are headed."

Bulwark will have a significant presence on the show floor at Safety 2013. First, at a “showcase” booth (#1337), where visitors can get the latest information on NFPA 70E, NFPA 2112 and Combustible Dust; as well as pose their burning questions to Bulwark’s Technical Experts at the booth’s FR Smart Bar throughout the event. Then again at the Bulwark-sponsored FR Lounge, (Booth #537) – where those who gain admission can mix and mingle with their SH&E peers, as well as get an exclusive look at the latest Bulwark apparel. To gain admission, attendees must first go to Booth #1337 or sign up online at www.bulwark.com/Events/ASSE.

To add to the excitement, Bulwark is also planning a number of great giveaways at random times in both of its floor locations. Ranging from free custom T-shirts and hats, to ten sets of $100 in casino chips for the table, to a free iPad for one lucky winner. “Just bet on 42 years of FR experience and register at Booth #1337,” says Crace.
