Carhartt and Mount Vernon FR launch Flame-Resistant Extremes® Arctic outerwear
Mount Vernon FR and Carhartt, America’s premium work wear brand since 1889, have partnered to launch Carhartt Flame-Resistant (FR) Extremes® Arctic outerwear. The Extremes® Arctic line is designed to offer a new level of wind resistance, durability, warmth and comfort to workers in extreme weather conditions, without added weight or bulk. Carhartt and Mount Vernon FR will officially launch Extremes® Arctic at the 2014 Enform Petroleum Safety Conference (PSC), which will be held May 6-8 at The Banff Centre in Banff, Alberta, Canada.
“Workers in extreme weather conditions have unique needs that may not be met by a one-size-fits-all approach to manufacturing FR garments,” said Mike Woods, vice president of FR fabrics for Mount Vernon FR. “Extremes® Arctic is just another example of the total choice Mount Vernon FR can provide customers when it comes to fabric constructions and finishes.”
