Cut resistant garments for workers in high mechanical risk areas require specially engineered fabrics designed to protect without compromising comfort and appearance. Norfab’s new CutPro™ Natural line of fabrics employ unique NorFab yarn designs that combine the strength, high thermal capability, cut resistance and durability of Teijin Twaron® with the hardness of stainless steel. The unique composition of CutPro™ Natural provides outstanding protection against hazards posed by sharp objects and revolving or reciprocating blades.
Garments made with this CutPro™ Natural fabric provide:
Outlast® technology, originally developed for NASA, utilizes phase change materials (PCM) that absorb, store and release heat for optimal thermal comfort. Outlast® technology is comparable to ice in a drink; as it changes from solid to liquid, it absorbs heat and cools the drink, keeping that drink at the desired temperature for longer. Outlast® phase change materials work in the same way, but are microencapsulated to be permanently enclosed and protected in a polymer shell. We call microencapsulated phase change materials Thermocules™.
This encapsulation process makes the Thermocules™ exceptionally durable for many applications. These Thermocules™ can be incorporated into fabrics and fibers and have the capacity to absorb, store and release excess heat. This gives any product containing Outlast® technology the ability to continually regulate skin’s microclimate. As the skin gets hot, the heat is absorbed, and as it cools, that heat is released.
Outlast® technology is not wicking technology, which manages moisture by reacting to your sweat and pulling it away from the skin. Outlast® technology will proactively manage heat while controlling the production of moisture before it begins. That’s the Outlast® difference.
Apparel
Outlast® technology takes comfort to the next level by proactively alleviating spikes in skin temperature throughout the day. With Outlast® technology added to apparel products, individuals will feel just right, no matter what the activity or season.
With added comfort you also provide added value for your customers. Outlast® technology is a tested and proven benefit that many trusted apparel brands are already taking advantage of. The following are some examples of apparel products and the appropriate Outlast® material to use.
