Our Fabrics

KERMEL

KERMEL is the leading European manufacturer of meta-aramid fibres used in protective clothing against heat and flames.

Innovation is a key element within KERMEL: we offer a wide range of textile solutions from the skin to the outershell, providing maximum protection without sacrificing any degree of comfort.

Kermel® fibre is a polyamide-imide, classified in the meta-aramid family. It is naturally non-flammable, which is a permanent characteristic thanks to its chemical structure including a high proportion of aromatic structures and combined double bonds. Kermel® fibre maintains maximum short term protection against very high temperatures (up to 1,000 °C)

LENZING FR

More comfort less heat stress. Lenzing FR is a specialty viscose fiber. The abbreviation FR stands for „flame resistant“. Lenzing FR is a natural fiber derived from wood. It offers protection from heat and flame in a variety of different applications.

Lenzing FR® fire fabric offers unique thermal insulation properties combined with permanent flame resistance make Lenzing FR® a „Heat Protection Fiber“. It offers protection from all kinds of heat and its functional properties help to prevent heat stress and heat stroke.

Lenzing FR® keeps the body dry and cool. Heat stress and heat stroke can be avoided.

WOOL

Wool has long been a choice for protective clothing – with wool used to protect wearers in hostile environments and weather conditions – making wool the fibre of choice for outer-layer garments.

Now, the military and first responders such as firefighter and police officers are looking to base-layer Merino wool garments as the body’s ‘last line of defence’ due to wool’s breathability and its inherent properties of high ignition temperature, high limiting oxygen index and self-extinguishing behaviour.

What Our Customers
Have To Say

"The Copenhagen Fire Brigade wears 3CO safety socks because they meet the highest standards for working in a dangerous environment, the kind of environment firemen deal with in training and in the field. I strongly recommend 3CO safety socks for others because they have served us extremely well."
Jørgen GyllingChief of the Copenhagen Fire Brigade
“Here at Alcan Iceland Ltd. we are using safety socks, which are produced by ME in Iceland. The socks have been to our satisfaction, and have many advantages over similar products that we like to list up as follows; 1. High tolerance when in fire 2. High isolation factor (the heat takes longer time to penetrate the sock 3. When at burn-level the sock does not leave particles that cause the wound to be infected 4. The sock is stronger and lasts longer than what we have previously seen 5. The sock does not lead to unnecessary perspiration and the user is pleased with the quality.”
