In the world of flame and arc-resistant protective clothing, modacrylic fibers have emerged as a vital innovation—offering a unique blend of safety, durability, and comfort. At Harbor365, we leverage the inherent properties of modacrylics to create garments that protect workers in the most hazardous environments, including Oil & Gas, Electric Utilities, and New Energy sectors.
Modacrylics are synthetic copolymers, primarily composed of acrylonitrile and other chemicals that make them inherently flame-resistant. Unlike treated fabrics, modacrylics do not require additional chemical treatment to resist flames, making them more durable over time and resistant to wear through repeated washing or harsh environments.
One of the standout features of modacrylic fiber is its self-extinguishing property. When exposed to flame, the fiber chars and extinguishes itself—reducing the risk of continued burning or melting on the skin. In addition, modacrylics offer excellent dimensional stability, are lightweight, and feel soft against the skin, improving both safety and comfort for workers.
Harbor365 incorporates modacrylic blends into multi-layer protective garments to enhance arc flash and thermal protection, while ensuring compliance with international safety standards like NFPA 70E, IEC 61482, and EN ISO 11612.
Whether it’s an oil rig in the Middle East or a power plant in North America, Harbor365’s modacrylic-based protective wear provides region-specific, high-performance solutions for modern industrial challenges—without compromising on safety or comfort.
