Flame Resistant Safety Solutions
Flash Fire
Flash fire is a hazard in any environment where concentrated fuel (flammable solids and liquids, or their gases, vapors or dust) may become mixed with enough oxygen to support combustion. A flash fire is a sudden and unexpected ignition that is relatively short in duration, averaging 3 seconds or less, and with temperatures ranging from 1,000° – 2,000°F or more.
In the event of a flash fire, 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.

In addition, G&K launders repairs and processes the garments using an exacting set of world-class flame resistant maintenance standards.
