Flexothane  For the farm and high rainfall recreation.

 

If you are considering function, freedom of movement and strength to be the crucial criteria when selecting protective clothing FLEXOTHANE® is a must for you.FLEXOTHANE® is a revolutionary combination of a high quality polyurethane (PU) coating on a stretchable knitted fabric which has excellent waterproof, wind and cold resistant properties. Through years of Research and Development, FLEXOTHANE® was created to provide unequalled elasticity and tear resistance. 

 

It is extremely difficult to puncture FLEXOTHANE®, but should a sharp object penetrate the fabric, it is virtually impossible to enlarge the rip or tear. The loop structures (see photo on right) of the FLEXOTHANE base fabric distribute pressure throughout the punctured area to hinder tearing. 

In the production of FLEXOTHANE® we do not use chloride, so consequently when disposing of FLEXOTHANE® after use, harmful substances are not released into the environment.

While wearing FLEXOTHANE® garments, freedom of movement is unrestricted, allowing a greater range of motion during a variety of work tasks. 

FLEXOTHANE® is 150% stretchable and extremely lightweight, in fact up to 50% lighter than conventional outerwear. FLEXOTHANE® has a very soft touch, stays supple regardless of temperature and represents the ultimate in comfort under any weather conditions.

FLEXOTHANE® garments are high frequency (HF) welded to ensure water resistance of all seams. FLEXOTHANE® is water vapour permeable so the fabric actually "breathes", allowing moisture to escape, thus ensuring comfort during the work day. 

FLEXOTHANE® is stain resistant to petroleum based chemicals. Grease, fuel, oil and other fluids can be easily removed from FLEXOTHANE® by simply wiping. The fabric is machine washable without compromising its 100% waterproof characteristics and can be folded for storage without losing its original shape. Garments from FLEXOTHANE® are made to last and represent an investment in your comfort, morale and job performance.  

         

 For snow based activity.

Siopor is the top-of-the range material if your aim is to combine efficent protection and superior comfort.

A waterproof but breathable coating is obtained by a compact Hydrophylic (PU) layer, whereby perspiration is transported in a molecular chemical way from inside the garment to the outside. This happens under influence of an energy difference between the inside and the outside of the garment, due to a temperature and relative humidity gradient.
