Importance of flame retardant reflective tape in firefighting clothing

Improve visibility of firefighters

At the scene of a fire, factors such as thick smoke, dust and insufficient light can seriously affect visibility, increasing the difficulty and danger of rescue work. Flame retardant reflective tape greatly improves the visibility of firefighters in various environments by reflecting light, facilitating identification and collaboration between teammates, and also helping trapped people to quickly find the location of rescuers.

Provide additional protection

Flame retardant reflective tape not only has reflective function, but also has excellent flame retardant properties. In high temperature and flame environment, the tape can effectively prevent the spread of flames, provide an additional layer of protection, and reduce the risk of injury to firefighters.

Comply with safety standards and regulatory requirements

Many countries and regions have strict regulations on the safety performance of firefighting clothing, requiring the use of flame retardant reflective materials that meet standards. YSM flame retardant reflective tape is certified by international standards such as NFPA 2112, EN20471 Class II and ANSI/ISEA107-2020. The use of high-quality flame retardant reflective tape can ensure that firefighting clothing complies with relevant regulations and standards and ensure the safety of firefighters.

Application of flame retardant reflective tape in firefighting clothing

Application location

Fire resistant reflective tape is usually sewn or pasted on key parts of firefighting clothing, such as the chest, back, sleeves and trouser legs. The selection of these locations is based on the principles of ergonomics and maximum visibility to ensure that firefighters can be clearly identified in various postures and movements.

Installation method

The installation methods of flame retardant reflective tape are mainly sewing and hot sticking. The sewing method is suitable for clothing of various materials and is strong and durable; the hot sticking method uses high temperature to fuse the tape with the clothing fabric, which has the advantages of flatness, beauty and high efficiency. Choosing an appropriate installation method can ensure the firmness and service life of the tape.

Maintenance and Care

In order to ensure the long-term performance of flame-retardant reflective tape, regular inspection and maintenance are necessary. Avoid using strong detergents or high-temperature drying to avoid damaging the reflective and flame-retardant properties of the tape. Damaged or aged tape should be replaced in time to ensure that the firefighting clothing is always in the best protective state.
