As the world’s largest provider of PBI outershells, Safety Components is proud to introduce PBI Max™ LP utilizing the new PBI LP fiber. Lighter, stronger, with enhanced break open protection — it’s truly lightweight perfected.
PBI Max LP in a lightweight 180 gsm design doesn’t mean light-duty. By incorporating 30% DuPont™ Kevlar® filament, PBI Max LP is designed to increase tear resistance by up to four times that of competitive PBI fabrics. Utilizing our Filament Twill Technology, PBI Max LP is not only stronger new but just as important, it is stronger throughout the life of the garment after exposure to UV (the element most damaging to FR fabrics). For maximum durability against the hazards firefighters see day in and day out, specify PBI Max LP.
Filament Twill Technology is a fabric technology patented by Safety Components in 2012. Compared to other fabric technologies like “conventional rip-stop” and “basic twill” designs, Filament Twill fabric designs are lighter and stronger both new and after UV Exposure.
What is PBI LP? PBI LP is a revolutionary new PBI fiber that raises the bar on break open protection. Compared to traditional PBI fiber, PBI LP exhibits stronger molecular bonds for better dimensional stability, increased flame resistance and better break open protection.
