Lenzing A.G, one of the world's leading cellulosic fibre manufacturers, provides full comfort with Lenzing FR® that offers protection in all layers. Lenzing FR®, a cellulose fibre from the house of Lenzing, protects against heat stress and it can be manufactured specially for all needs owing to the different layering of the fabric.
Reliability of Lenzing Was Confirmed With Tests
Lenzing FR®, which can be developed with special synthetics, has maximum moisture absorption and breathability thanks to its naturalness. The protective clothes manufactured with Lenzing FR® reduce the second and third degree burns by up to 30 percent compared to the commonly used protective clothing. The fact that the cracking is minimised on the fabrics where Lenzing FR® is used is among the results put forward by the tests.
In psychological tests, Lenzing FR® shows that the fibre is effective at all layers. The best values are obtained when the person undergoing the test wears the refrigerant and flame retardant materials. The breathing properties of Lenzing FR® leads to lower heat temperature and another feature proved in the tests is that the fire-fighters have also higher performance profile.
The fact that Lenzing FR® manufactured out of beech tree does not drip and melt during fire also draws attention. Resistant to fire and heat, the fibre releases toxic fumes during a fire at very low rates. Lenzing FR® can be used in public spaces like cinema, theatre and other similar places where safety and comfort are sought along with various means of transport including ship, train, bus, metro and plane. This product is of great importance especially in terms of the production of the materials used in the abovementioned means of transport where strict safety rules exist in line with safety rules. Lenzing FR® comes to prominence in the transportation sector with its fire-resistant and flame-retardant properties.
Optimum Moisture Regulation
Manufactured at various colours, Lenzing FR® can be used even in hot climates owing to its optimum moisture regulation feature. Besides, known as the skin-friendly protective fibre, Lenzing FR® is used in countless working fields as an optimum protection against heat sources. Unique heat insulation properties combined with permanent flame retardation give Lenzing FR® the characteristic of “Heat Protective Fibre”.
