Aramid & Performance Fabrics

Aramid, O-PAN, & PBI for Heat & Abrasion Resistance

We manufacture 100% spun para-aramid and core spun (CS) para-aramid with a fiberglass core. Core spun fabrics combine the abrasion resistance of a para-aramid with the heat protection of fiberglass. They are ideal for environments where extreme heat and sharp objects, like glass, are both factors. Aramid is also commonly known by the brand name "Kevlar®". Para-aramid fabrics can tolerate continuous operating temperatures up to 700°F (370°C) and peak intermittent temperatures up to 750°F (400°C).
