A powerful alloy of solution dye Nomex®/Kevlar®
and Teflon® F.P.P.E.
 
•Durability of Nomex
•Strength and abrasion resistance of Kevlar
•Water Resistance of our patented Teflon  F.P.P.E.
•The improved strength and color retention of producer-dyed  fibers
 
 
 
 
SHELTER FROM THE STORM--Combine the power and proven performance of Kevlar®, the reliable thermal protection of Nomex® and a miracle layer of our exclusive, patented Teflon® F-PPE.  Fusion™, a powerful alloy of solution dyed Nomex ® / Kevlar® and Teflon® raises the performance standards of outershell technology.
 
TAKE TURNOUT GEAR TO A HIGHER LEVEL-- Because color is added during the polymer extrusion phase, Fusion™ outershell fibers are stronger and more durable because they haven't been weakened by a brutal fabric dying process.  Fusion™ is 15-20% stronger than comparable Nomex® / Kevlar® blended outershells.  Tests also show that Fusion™ outershells maintain color longer,  withstanding multiple laundering or exposure to thermal conditions.  The color cannot be washed out or burned off like traditional outershells.  
 
DRIER THAN EVER...DRIER LONGER THAN EVER--Our patented Teflon® F-PPE treatment provides the world's best water repellant technology.  Keep the water on the fire and not in your gear.  Water conducts heat 21 times faster than the insulated air your turnout needs for maximum protection.  Water also weighs 8 pounds per gallon.  Fusion™ delivers maximum water repellency for drier, lighter more comfortable gear....on the first run and every run.  
 
LOW PROFILE RIPSTOP--Our low profile ripstop, combined with our Teflon® F-PPE treatment guarantees the highest performance in resistance to abrasion and tearing than any Nomex® / Kelvar® outershell today.
 
 
 
 
 

Fusion™ is available in four colors Bronze, Brass, Black and Gold.  Because Fusion™ retains much more of its original color after exposure to heat under NFPA oven testing methods, you’ll enjoy the color of your choice for a long time to come.
