Stretch - The trend that is here to stay

"Very comfortable. Easy to move around in" says one of our users at Infranord - who was the first to try our new  Zenith trousers with the next level of comfort.

As we see a growing demand for comfortable garments, we make sure to incorporate this into our new developments. Our customer’s needs are always in focus, and we are proud to work in close collaboration with our fabric suppliers, to bring forth the best new material innovations.

When it comes to incorporating stretch material, the biggest challenge is to maintain the high level of Flame Retardant qualities of the garment. The stretch fibres must be able to keep washability in industrial laundry at 60 degrees while at the same time ensure the Flame Retardant properties stay intact and this requires working with high quality materials.

With Zenith stretch trousers, one of our 2022 news, we managed a great combination of comfort and protection for workers in high risk areas where visibility is key. While reaching ELIM 8,0 and ATPV 8,6 cal/cm², with a weight at only 260g, the stretch panels also give the user total flexibility.
