Flame Resistant Safety Solutions
Electric Arc Flash
An arc flash typically lasts less than 1 second, but it can leave devastating results. It is an explosive blast of flame, debris, sound and force resulting from substantial electrical current passing through ionized air. It can propel molten metals, such as copper, at exceptionally high velocity, with radiant heat levels exceeding 35,000°F.
In the event of Electric Arc Flash, everyday fabric (non-flame resistant) can ignite and burn when exposed to an ignition source, becoming a source of fuel for prolonged flames. These fabrics may burn long after the original source of the flame is gone. Flame Resistant fabric self-extinguishes after the original source of the flame is removed.
G&K selects our safety solution flame resistant fabrics, garments and personal protective equipment to provide leading edge protection. In addition, G&K launders repairs and processes the garments using an exacting set of world-class flame resistant maintenance standards. G&K provides a full line of flame resistant products such as uniform shirts, pants, coveralls, jeans, jackets, gloves and headwear.
