DuPont™ Nomex® -- Proven. Predicable.
Let’s face it, you can never know with certainty when a fire will spark, how hot it will burn, where it will spread or how long it will last. Because fire is such a wild card, Nomex® becomes the best bet. Nomex® is protective and predictable. Its effectiveness has been proven time and time again in documented laboratories, field tests and real-life fires. Compared to other materials like fire resistant treated cotton, it offers live-saving advantages. DuPont™ Nomex® has set the standard in fire protection around the world for close to 50 years. Workers across the manufacturing, chemical and refining industries depend on its thermal protection to keep them safe when the unexpected happens. And racecar drivers, jet fighter pilots and firefighters know it by name. www.dupont.com
