Modacrylic/Cotton/Anti-static
Product Name:
Fire Retardant Modacrylic Cotton Blend Interlock – Anti-static Protection
Product Overview:
Engineered for maximum safety and all-day comfort, our fire retardant modacrylic cotton blend interlock fabric combines inherent flame resistance with permanent anti-static properties. The interlock knit construction offers excellent stretch, recovery, and a soft hand feel, making it ideal for protective workwear that workers will actually want to wear.
Unlike chemically treated FR fabrics that lose effectiveness after repeated laundering, this fabric’s flame retardant properties are built directly into the modacrylic fiber – they are permanent and non-washable. The integrated anti-static protection prevents electrostatic discharge (ESD), reducing ignition risks in flammable or explosive environments.
Key Features:
Inherent Flame Retardant: FR properties will not wash out, wear away, or diminish over time
Permanent Anti-static Protection: Dissipates static charges to prevent sparks and ESD
Comfortable Cotton Blend: Soft, breathable, and moisture-absorbing for extended wear
Durable Interlock Construction: Excellent dimensional stability, stretch, and recovery
Easy Care: Machine washable with low shrinkage and good colorfastness
Customizable: Available in various weights, colors, and functional finishes
