ADVANCE™
Tencate’s Advance fabric combines the trusted re protection of Nomex with the legendary strength
of Kevlar. While it may not be bullet proof, Advance is about as close as you will get to brush proof.
Garments made with Advance are ideal for the roughest of terrain, and situations where your gear
absolutely needs to last.
NOMEX® IIIA
Tried and true, Nomex has been the standard in FR fabrics for half a century. Garments made from
Nomex are inherently flame-resistant and won’t melt, drip, or support combustion in the air. The
thermal protection offered by Nomex is permanent, and cannot be washed out or worn away.
A key factor in the thermal protection Nomex provides is that it carbonizes and thickens when exposed
to intense heat. This increases the protective barrier between the heat source and the skin, minimizing
burn injuries. This tough protective barrier stays supple and flexible until it cools, which gives you
valuable extra seconds of protection when you need it most.
TECASAFE® PLUS
The scientists at TenCate Protective Fabrics USA developed an exceptional blend of bers that
provide Active Moisture Management. This moves moisture away from the wearer while generating an
evaporative cooling effect in warmer environments, and regulates temperature in cooler climates.
Tecasafe PLUS with Coolderm Technology is a hypoallergenic textile that’s extremely comfortable and
easy to wear. The fabric arrives soft with ergonomic performance so there’s no break-in period, easy
donning and dofng, and no chafng or irritation during extended wear. Inherently flame-resistant
so the protection comes “built in” and will never wash or wear out, Tecasafe PLUS with Coolderm
Technology is engineered as a more durable and comfortable option to chemically treated wildland
fabrics.
TENCATE STYLE 469™
TenCate Style 469™ recently received very high marks in wear-trial evaluation from the U.S. Department
of Homeland Security Science and Technology Directorate. This evaluation saw Style 469™ lauded
by Federal, State and Local Government re departments. TenCate Style 469™ is also strategically
placed in the current CAL FIRE Wildland Garment System where increased levels of Radiant Protective
Performance (RPP) are required.
PIONEER™
CrewBoss is taking the most innovative fabric in structural reghting onto the wildland reline.
Originally developed as an outer shell for turnouts, Tencate Pioneer is now the toughest material
available for brush pants.
Pioneer’s strength comes from Tencate’s patent pending Enforce Technology. This innovative process
utilizes Kevlar bers in a double-helix formation to create a fabric that is virtually impossible to rip,
while still being lightweight and comfortable to wear.
PBI TRIGUARD™
Inherently flame resistant, soft, lightweight and comfortable, PBI Triguard provides superior protection.
PBI TriGuard™ fabric is a 3-ber blend of PBI, 3Lenzing® FR and MicroTwaron™ that offers superior
flame protection, outstanding comfort and unmatched durability. This advanced rip-stop blend fabric
meets the demands of most any environment. PBI TriGuard™ fabric is easy to care for and maintain,
making it the right choice for the work you do.
SIGMA™ 4 STAR
Using a revolutionary, proprietary ber blend, Sigma 4 Star fabric offers high levels of thermal
protection, while still being exceptionally breathable
