The Benefits of Merino Wool and FR Viscose for Hazardous Work Environments

If you work in a hazardous environment where you are exposed to flames or electric arcs, you need to wear protective clothing that can prevent burns and injuries. But you also need to stay comfortable and warm, especially in cold weather. That’s why we created our Brass Monkeys Flame-Resistant range of merino thermals.

Our Brass Monkeys Flame-Resistant range is made from a blend of merino wool and FR viscose fibres that meet the HRC1 standard. This means they can resist flames and electric arcs in hazardous work settings. They also offer the benefits of merino wool, which helps your body adjust its temperature to the environment.

Why Merino Wool is the Best Choice for Your Thermal Clothing

When it comes to choosing thermal clothing, you want something that can keep you warm without compromising your comfort and safety. That’s why the inclusion of merino wool makes for the ideal material in your thermal clothing. Merino wool is a natural fibre that comes from a special breed of sheep that can survive in harsh climates. Merino wool has many benefits over synthetic materials, such as:

• Breathable: It allows moisture to evaporate, keeping you dry and comfortable.
• Odour-resistant: It prevents the growth of bacteria that cause bad smells, so you can wear it for longer without washing.
• Soft and smooth: It feels gentle on your skin, unlike some scratchy fabrics that can irritate your skin.
• Durable and versatile: It can withstand wear and tear, and can be worn in different seasons and occasions.
