Protective Personal Equipment (PPE) that complies with industry standards and provides Class 2 arc fault protection for electrical engineers has often been criticized for being heavy, bulky, and restrictive, which can lead to non-compliance or incorrect usage. However, the new generation of PYRAD® Technology from GORE-TEX LABS offers a promising solution to these challenges. This technology not only delivers top-tier Class 2 protection against the thermal hazards of electric arcs but also ensures unparalleled freedom of movement and wearer comfort, particularly for indoor use and warmer conditions, thanks to its remarkably low weight. Weighing in at just 280g/m², it stands out as the lightest Class 2 arc fault protection technology available in a single-ply construction.
Gore is proud to unveil this groundbreaking technology for the first time at A+A 2023 in Düsseldorf (October 24-27, 2023). You can explore it at booth G 60 in Hall 11.
