Two months ago, we were delighted to announce the acquisition of the Fire Protective Clothing manufacturer BRISTOL UNIFORMS. Together, we are continuing our mission to create a safer world taking this to the next level by providing head to toe protection for firefighters across the globe.

We are happy to share a recent success with this new MSA BRISTOL product line: We have rolled out 5,000 sets of XFlex PPE to firefighters across New South Wales, Australia and will be delivering a further 5,000 by June. FRNSW is one of the world’s largest urban fire and rescue services and the busiest in Australia with more than 6,500 firefighters spread across 335 stations, attending around 120,000 call outs per year.

XFlex PPE range has been ergonomically designed with sports styling and lightweight fabrics, providing advanced comfort and protection. The unique fabric combination consists of Safety Components Nomex^® 360™, combined with a GORE^® PARALLON™ liner system which provides unparalleled levels of breathability while preventing drops in thermal protection.
