DuPont Protection Technologies Launches of DuPont SafeSpec for Nomex

DuPont Protection Technologies (DuPont) on March 30 announced the launch of the latest version of DuPont SafeSpec, its suite of online interactive product selector tools. SafeSpec for Nomex Flame Resistant (FR) Apparel-North America enables professionals to make informed decisions about flame-resistant apparel options made with DuPont Nomex brand fiber.

The tool offers product selection and search features for a full portfolio of garments and accessories that are made with Nomex. The design allows users to search parameters including flame-resistant hazard, industry standards, garment type, certification and availability. The tool also provides industry-specific search for Industrial and Fire Safety. The system will automatically upgrade with new features as they become available.

“This state-of-the-art tool enables the user to make selections for their quality and performance needs,” said Lisa Roessler, regional marketing manager. “It builds on the world-class SafeSpec platform that simplifies online research and provides tools for selection of chemical protective garments, controlled environment garments and accessories, and industrial gloves.”

DuPont Nomex fiber helps FR clothing protect industrial workers from the intense heat and flames of fire. The heat and flame resistance is built into the Nomex fiber. Nomex fiber can enable clothing to have the lowest possible weight at the highest level of protection, breathability for reduced heat stress and the ability to effectively wick away moisture.
