Nomex® for electrical and utilities

 
 
 

Nomex® provides lightweight, comfortable, arc flash PPE solutions to give workers in the utility and general electrical industries the protection they need.  

 
 
 

There is a global trend towards reducing the single energy source from fossil fuels to various renewable sources. As a result, workers will face more diversified and complex environments, as well as different hazards which will require both thermal and arc flash protection. Due to the wide range of potential threats they may face, the right combination of protective apparel must be selected for optimum safety. It’s not only the type of fabric that’s an important consideration but also how fabric layering can offer different degrees of protection.
