The FireBear story
Learn how we developed a lightweight, high quality arc flash solution using our experience and knowledge.
We work with the biggest names in power to deliver innovative solutions to the world's most dangerous working environments.
As the BSIF states, ‘Anyone can sell safety, but you wouldn’t buy safety from just anyone’. Our extensive sector-specific expertise, accreditations and best-in-class products make us a valuable partner to some of the most dangerous working environments in the world.
We’re also acutely aware of how quickly things are changing within your industry, particularly as world leaders focus on the climate crisis. We’re working with businesses to meet the specific safety requirements of renewables and cleaner fuels.
Working with power is inherently dangerous, but there are ways to mitigate risk. We were the first company to create clothing specifically to meet EN61482 (the electric ARC protection standard).
Our FireBear safety range includes flame retardant, anti-static, ARC resistant and respiratory protection products. We also pioneered the development of the first wearable electric ARC class 2 middle layer garments.
