Work Wear - Fire Fighters



Few work environments are as dangerous as fire fighting. During a fire, property and more importantly lives are at risk. Veteran fire fighters agree that combating a complex fire is a team effort. Teamwork requires visibility… the ability to see others while being seen. Treating accident victims on the road is also extremely dangerous, especially at night. Visibility is crucial for all people in the vicinity… the injured, the attending Emergency Medical Service technicians, and oncoming motorists. 3M™ Scotchlite™ Reflective Material provides obvious solutions by helping fire fighters be seen while fighting fires, and EMS technicians be seen and identified by motorists as well as accident victims.

3M™ Scotchlite™ Reflective Material – Fire Coat Trim offers a fluorescent colored component for daytime visibility, and an integrated silver stripe for visibility in low-light conditions and at night. Fire coat trim meets NFPA 1971, 2000 Edition requirements for flame resistance and convective heat performance. Fire coat trim also meets the laundering recommendations described in the new NFPA 1851: Selection, Care, and Maintenance Guide.

3M™ Scotchlite™ Reflective Material – Fabric is lightweight, flexible and easily sewn onto garments, such as coats and pants. It is suitable for use as die-cut letters and numbers to identify fire fighters and fire stations.

And Scotchlite reflective material from 3M keeps on providing these benefits, wearing after wearing, washing after washing.
