Westex’s original Indura^® line of flame resistant 100% cotton fabrics, introduced in 1987, is guaranteed flame resistant for the life of the garment in either high temperature industrial or home washing procedures. In fact, the Indura^® brand name was derived from “industrial (wash) durability,” due to the fact that Indura^® was the first flame resistant cotton fabric that was engineered to provide guaranteed flame resistance. Since the introduction of Indura^® in 1987, millions of garments have been installed in successful protective clothing programs worldwide. Today, Indura^® is still popular for use in denim jeans, jackets and pants in the metals industry and in coveralls for budget conscious contractors.
