Europrotect France Sa

What they make

According to their website, Europrotect France develops and manufactures technical protective textiles for personal safety, serving firefighters, law enforcement, the military, industry and workwear. The company is vertically integrated from weaving to finishing: it operates direct and sectional warping and air-jet, rapier and projectile weaving looms, followed by continuous and discontinuous dyeing, printing, and mechanical and chemical finishing. This in-house control covers the full chain from raw material to marketed product. Its offices and factories in France are ISO 9001:2008 certified, and some products carry OEKO-TEX Standard 100 labelling. Notable branded fabrics include the patented Twin System and Twin Spacer weaves for firefighter and police intervention garments, the PBO-based Xenios fabric for high thermal insulation, the XPS chemical-splash treatment, Fire Stretch, and flame-resistant Duracot, Prosafe and K-Durashield fabrics for industrial and welding wear. Fabrics are certified to standards such as EN469, ISO 11612, ISO 11611, EN13034 and ISO20471. The company states a Research and Development history of over 30 years with international patents, and sells across Europe, Russia, the Maghreb, Asia and South America.
