PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

BANOX CERTIFIED fabric is 100% cotton, which is treated by a single step flame retarding process that last the life of the garment.  When compared with other flame retarding chemical processes, our product provides superior wear life because unlike the two step flame retarding methode BANOX CERTIFIED does not reduce the wear life of the cotton.
WASH AND WEAR DURABILITY

BANOX CERTIFIED can be expected to last over 60 launderings and the flame resistance of  BANOX CERTIFIED is guaranteed for the usable life of the garment.
ELECTRIC ARC

When tested according to ASTM F1959-99, 9oz/yd. BANOX CERTIFIED has an ATPV of 9.3 and easily passes the NFPA70E Category 2 minimum of 8 whereas 9 oz/yd. Indura fails to meet this standard with an ATPV of 7.9.
PROTECTION AGAINST FLAMES
