GORE-TEX: Flame-retardant riot police

GORE-TEX Professional has developed a new and expanded laminate portfolio for flame-retardant protective clothing. The new GORE-TEX Professional Riot Collection offers police forces various clothing solutions that are even better tailored to specific operational requirements - without compromising on protection, performance, or comfort.

The Riot Collection is designed so that each layer of clothing - from the inside out - provides specific protection. In the interplay of the layers, the collection meets different weather conditions, activities, and challenges. Clothing with PYRAD® Technology also provides protection against unexpected short-term flame exposure and heat.

The new PYRAD® Suit from GORE-TEX LABS combines lightweight, highly breathable comfort with flame protection. The suit offers very low water absorption with quick drying back for daily comfort.

The GORE-TEX PYRAD® Weather Protection is lightweight, abrasion-resistant, waterproof, breathable, and comfortable, providing protection for the wearer against liquids, common chemicals, heat, and flames.

Insulating clothing systems with various laminates are ideal for the colder months. Intelligent body mapping allows for optimized insulation where it is really needed. This reduces unnecessary bulk and volume, improving freedom of movement.

Additional freedom of movement, especially in combination with protective vests, is offered by the unique flame-retardant GORE-TEX Stretch Technology.

The GORE-TEX Professional product collection with flame-retardant protection solutions makes duty easier, as it is lighter, softer, and more comfortable than conventional clothing. Thanks to the high level of protection and special comfort, officers are not hindered by wetness, cold, or heat. They can better focus on their mission.

Katja Christof, product specialist at GORE-TEX Professional, says: "We are continuously working on laminate innovations that provide police officers with a wide range of high-performance protective clothing solutions. The GORE-TEX Professional product collection always allows officers to acquire the right garment for different operational requirements and helps officers to more effectively meet the challenges of modern police work."

All materials in the PYRAD® Collection are very durable. They are designed to withstand tough operating conditions in difficult environments and exhibit high abrasion resistance. A wide range of possible colors covers the requirements for different corporate identity needs of police organizations.
