PR97 has been independently tested and provides superior splash protection against molten: Aluminium, Cryolite, Steel, Iron, Copper, Magnesium and Nickel.

PR97™ has been specifically designed for use in secondary or everyday protective workwear. It provides the hot metals industry with the following benefits:

   
1  Uncompromising safety
PR97™ is inherently flame retardant offering ‘built in’ protection that can not be laundered out.
PR97™ offers excellent protection against molten aluminium and cryolite splash.
PR97™ provides excellent protection against electric arc.
PR97™ protects against exposure to radiant heat.
   
2  Naturally comfortable
PR97™, with its natural blend of fibres and innovative construction techniques, has the ability to wick moisture away from the skin facilitating the cooling process.
In the absence of any chemical FR treatments the fabric has the ability to breath, allowing air to circulate freely without jeopardising the protective integrity of the garment.
   
3  The cost effective safety solution
PR97™, with its multifunctional applications, can be used from the pot-room through to re-melt, casting, rodding, electrical and maintenance areas.
PR97™ can be wet laundered or dry-cleaned allowing for flexible garment/inventory management programmes.
PR97™, with its inherently protective properties, can remain in service for the lifespan of the garment itself – the protective integrity of the fabric remains as long as the garment is intact.
   
4  Proven performance
By employing PR97™ you are providing your molten metal operatives with a product that offers the highest standards of health and safety in secondary protective workwear.
PR97™ is the standard by which all other hot metal protective fabrics are judged. Our dominant position in the world’s most dangerous areas of the smelter environment is testimony to the long-term protective qualities and superb wearer comfort that PR97™ provides.
