Indura® is known as the first flame resistant 100% cotton fabric engineered to provide guaranteed flame resistance for the life of the garment — in either high temperature industrial or home washing procedures. In fact, the Indura® brand name was derived from “industrial (wash) durability”. Since the introduction of Indura® in 1987, millions of garments have been used in successful protective clothing programs worldwide. Today, Indura® remains popular among specifiers in the metals industry and budget-conscious contractors. It provides multipurpose protection from electric arc flash, flash fire, molten ferrous metal and welding exposures.
