As an industry leader in FR protection, Milliken’s line of ResQTM woven fabrics are a breakthrough in FR protection and are engineered to improve the survivability of today’s warfighter on the ground or in the air. These fabrics are constructed with carefully selected blends of fibers in unique fabric constructions and the addition of our own patented finishing technology to protect against heat and flame.
Polartec FR knits and fleeces bring additional performance fabrics and technologies to the Milliken Military portfolio. Polartec started developing performance flame resistant fabric technologies for the U.S. Military in 2003 after combat uniforms began melting against the intense heat of IED detonations. Today, we continue to develop innovative, permanent flame resistant yarn technologies used to create protective layering systems that perform in the most demanding environments.
