Hepta® Inherent 270

Hepta® 270 was developed with a singular purpose: to enable professionals to do their most demanding work without compromise.

• Inherent flame retardant protection. Certified for 100 wash cycles.
• Extremely visible. RIS-3279-TOM certified.
• 2 Incredibly lightweight. Merely 270 g/m.
• Highly breathable for extra comfort.

7 fibres. 7 norms.
Designed to push the limits for demanding flame retardant and arc flash protective garments. It includes 7 different fibres and certifies to 7 different safety standards. Hence, Hepta®, Greek for 7, serves its name purpose. When exposed to excessive heat and flames, the fabric creates a ‘blister’—similar to the human skin. Except that this blister is created on the inside of the fabric forming a protective shield. Hepta® provides outstanding welding performance, it is certified as a Class 2 protective fabric. That’s truly remarkable for an inherent flame retardant fabric at 270 g/m2. The fabric also features exceptional tear, tensile and abrasion strength. It scored a whopping 25.000 T on the Martindale test.

Hepta and the Environment

We design our products to be safe and long-lasting. When products are used longer, fewer resources are extracted from the earth, reduces your ecological footprint and positively impact your cost of ownership too. Hence, we pushed the Hepta® 270 fabric to be certified for 100 wash cycles. That’s unparalleled.
