FAQ:

What does FR mean?
FR Stands For Flame Retardant. The Candour FR™ Coverall meets with standard EN533 Index 1/0 for flame retardancy. This means that the Candour FR™ Coverall can be used in conjunction with EN533 Index 2 or 3 garments to offer protection from sparks and flame risk applications.

What else does the Candour FR™ Coverall protect from?
The Candour FR™ Coverall is a CE Type 5/6 garment which means that it is resistant to noxious dust and limited splash. It also has anti-static properties which comply with EN1149-1.

What are the key design benefits of the Candou FR™ Coverall?
The Candour FR™ fabric is breathable, making it very comfortable to wear. The coverall features knitted cuffs, a 2-way zip, elasticated waist and a taped stormflap. It has been designed with the end user in mind and is the most wearable product on the market.

Who wants to buy a CE Type 5/6 flame retardant garment?
The existing market for quality 5/6 garments is substantial and the Candour FR™ is excellent and cost effective for a wide range of applications such as medical, construction, asbestos removal and food processing. However the flame retardancy opens up the new markets:

ad Added FR Protection
Wearers of Candour FR™ textile garments will get an extra layer of protection from f lames in using the Candour FR™ Coverall over their textile garment.
che Added chemical protection
Many wearers of Candour FR™ textile garments are also at risk from chemical splash or noxious dust, however in risk assessments they have decided to protect from flames instead of chemicals. The Candour FR™ Coverall allows both flame protection and chemical protection.
adga Added garment protection
When an FR garment comes into contact with flames it needs to berefire-proofed or thrown away. With textiles this is very expensive. In using the Candour FR™ Coverall as a first line of defence from flames, the wear on the textile garment will be reduced considerably thus offering long-term cost savings to the end user

The Candour FR™ Fabric is extremely versatile offering protection from chemicals, dust and flames. Dailys offer a range of products made from Candour FR™ Fabric and all garments offer comfort and protection at very competitive prices. We welcome ideas and innovations from our customers so please contact us to discuss new applications. Candour FR™ Fabric is available in white, blue and red and other colours upon request, subject to quantities.
