RIFT Fire Resistant / Anti-Static Breathable FabricsRIFT breathable fabrics transport perspiration vapour away from the body out through the garment keeping the wearer cool. Bodies lose heat 23 times faster when they are wet. When at rest, bodies can lose 1/16 litre of perspiration per hour. Heavy or strenuous activities can increase release of perspiration up to 1 litre or more per hour.

This material is engineered to provide unbeatable electric arc and flash fire protection that lasts twice as long as chemically treated cotton fabrics. Yet the soft and lightweight fabric provides unmatched comfort. It is also comforting to know that the fabric's inherent protection will never wash out or wear away. We also manufacture our range of safety apparel using such fabrics as Indura Ultra Soft AC, FRAS 100% Cotton, FRAS Modacylic, FRAS Aramid, Waterproof FRAS Oxford 300D, Nomex and Vis-Arc Aramid.

RIFT Flame Resistant / Anti-Static / Arc Flash Resistance Fabrics

FRAS Waterproof fabrics prevent liquids entering inside the garment making it impervious to water, snow, oils and other workplace liquids.

The RIFT advanced composite membrane is a thin, lightweight, strong, durable fabric featuring two different polymers.

One membrane contains over 9 billion microscopic pores per square inch – smaller than a water droplet preventing penetration of rain, snow, and workplace oils.

However, the pores are larger than a water vapour molecule allowing perspiration to move through the RIFT fabric.

The second membrane facilitates transporting the water vapour outside the RIFT fabric and prevents other contaminants penetrating the fabric.RIFTs FRAS waterproof garment's seams are sealed using the highest quality waterproof taping.

The Rift Safety apparel range comprises fire-resistant and anti-static garments using cutting-edge technology to deliver superior workplace performance compared to other safety gear labels available in Australia.

RIFT's fire-resistant and anti-static, waterproof garments are light-weight and manufactured using the best available waterproof and breathable 3 layer materials available.

A heavy duty non-breakable thread is used in the manufacturing process on all stress points of RIFT garments. All waterproof RIFT garment seams are taped to ensure no seam leakage

RIFT's safety garments comply with stringent Australian safety standards and are made by a company with over 20 years' experience in manufacturing first-class safety gear for global markets.
