Arc flash is a phenomenon which happens when electric produce light and heat while conducting through ionized air. Typically, in less than a second, when the electric field is strong enough to destroy the dielectric feature of the air, arc flash will be occurred and can cause severe electrical burns or thermoacoustic shock wave.

Combining OPF(pre-oxidized) & para-aramid fiber to provide high-level thermal resistance and adopting rayon to provide soft skin-friendly and breathable properties for clothing.
According to NFPA 70E standard, the Arc thermal performance value (ATPV) of Sunny Special fabric could reach 8.4 cal/cm2 and cause less than 15% (second and third degree) predicted body burn injury to the human body which conducted by ASTM F1930 minikin test.
AD009AZ
Flame-resistant material is matched with the right fabric weight and construction to create a rip-stop fabric that reaches 11 cal/cm²; It also offers the protection for welding spatter.
AT015AZ
Lightweight arc flash resistant fabric easily passes ASTMF1930 manikin test due to high-performance materials. With a soft hand feel, it is suitable for all kinds of FR workwear.
AD008AZ
The golden combination of OPF (pre-oxidized), rayon, and aramid provides fabric with protection against arc flash and spatter generated by welding. It is suitable for every style of workwear.
AT013QZ
Fabrics not only provide flash fire and arc flash protection but also have liquid chemical splash and molten iron protection.
