The Flame-Retardant Turtleshell protects like armour against the dangers of static electricity, heat and flames, while also providing high wearing comfort. This is made possible by an innovative technology that robustly and safely combines antistatic and ceramic armour against abrasion in brick segments with a fireproof viscose knit. The material has high elasticity and breathability and therefore has the necessary properties for further processing into protective or functional clothing.
