DNA Technical Fabrics, a division of DNA Textile Group, has introduced a new collection of INHERENT PLUS+ FR Denim fabrics. DNA's Inherent Plus+ FR denim collection utilizes a patent pending dual FR technology to provide layered FR protection with comfort, performance, and premium styling.
"DNA's Dual FR Technology was developed in response to customers' requests for an innovative FR denim that can be laundered in premium fashion washes and maintain the same level of flame-resistant protection currently offered in the market, “said Marty Odum, VP of Technical Fabrics.
Inherent Plus + FR Denim can be enhanced through premium laundry applications including hand sanding, whiskers, enzymes, and stonewashing to achieve a range of fashion wash effects. Products in the new collection contain 13% to 20% stretch, from 11 to 13.5 oz, with added moisture wicking and improved drying to increase comfort.
DNA's INHERENT PLUS+ FR Denim fabrics are compliant with NFPA 2112, NFPA 70E, and ASTM F1506. The collection can be viewed at the NSC 2016 Expo in Anaheim, CA, from 17-19 October, Booth 3367 and at IFAI Expo 2016 in Charlotte, NC, from 19-21 October, Booth A1438.
