Lenzing FR® case study: IRAQ & AFGHANISTAN

In response to the spike in IED related burn injuries in 2005-2006 in Iraq, the US Army and Marine Corps respectively conducted formal, open solicitations and evaluation processes for fire resistant fabrics. Over 30 fabric types, blends, constructions and weights were evaluated.
Known problems with the existing flight suits and CVC coveralls were that they felt hot and were not durable.
The military felt that these issues would be even more problematic for ground Soldiers and Marines. So, the services solicited industry for fabric that protected from burn injury at least as well as the current uniforms. Additionally though, they wanted these fabrics to wick moisture, breathe better and last longer than the incumbent.
Lenzing FR® military fabrics have proven superior when all of the performance requirements are considered. Furthermore, it is more economical.

Lenzing is committed to the principles of sustainable management and very high environmental standards.
