REDUCEs BURN INJURY Increases RATE of survival A patentED TECHNOLOGY Flash Fire & Arc Flash Protection

Upper & Lower Back Vented Traps Located along both sides at the back, these vents allow the hot air, which circulates upwards, to be pushed outward, exiting the coverall, keeping you cool. The traps are constructed of a double layered fabric that does not leave your skin exposed, creating more protection.

Back Knee Vented Traps Located on the back of both knees, this technology allows cooler air into the coverall, pushing warmer air up through the upper back and out the side air vents. The traps are constructed of a double layered folded fabric that does not leave your skin exposed, creating more protection against exposure.

A SAFER,

MORE COMFORTABLE coverall.

Features PATENTED Specially Designed Vented Traps Made of FR Mesh The Vented Traps that are located along the back and back of legs are specially designed in a manner that does NOT expose your skin, keeping you protected from arc flash or flash fire exposure. No debris can enter the coverall. The fashion in which the vented traps are constructed includes a double layer of fabric, folded to create the vented trap, increasing the protection, making a safer coverall. The FR Mesh located between the folded double layer of fabric allows cool air to circulate into your coverall, pushing out hot air, creating a ventilation system.

testing results on the left.

% of Burn Injury

TEST RESULTS The Flashtrap Vented Coverall had lower body burn percentages after every test completed. This evidence supports the PATENTED FLASHTRAP design is the unique variable that results in lower body burn percentages and increases the rate of survival. This data trend supports the FLASHTRAP design is safer than the average coverall. If you look at the results from the mannequin test performed, on your left, the burn injuries that occurred during exposure were less in the areas where the PATENTED FLASHTRAP vents are located. The way the vents are designed with a layer of folded FR fabric between a layer of FR Mesh, does not expose your skin, keeps the wearer safer and more comfortable. DUPONT™ NOMEX ® : • Is inherently flame resistant and does not burn or melt and drip • Provides permanent protection that won’t wash out or wear away • Lightweight, breathable, outstanding wear life, extremely durable, cost-effective • Excellent in appearance retention, easy to launder and low laundry shrinkage

* When exposed for 4-Seconds on average the BIG BILL® FLASHTRAP Vented Coverall reduces burn injury by 10.9%
