IFR Workwear: The go-to brand for FR clothing and accessories
IFR WORKWEAR:
The go-to brand for FR clothing and accessories
IFR Workwear Inc. is an Aboriginalowned company, founded in 2005 in Red Deer, Alberta by Reg Radford and Erin Buckland. Our company has an unsurpassed professional team, which makes it easy to continually serve our customers with consistent quality service and products. We own a manufacturing plant in Mexico and a distribution centre in Texas, and our Canadian headquarters are in Red Deer, Alberta, which, combined, employ over 200 people throughout North America.
We manufacture high-quality, trusted products that offer a multitude of safety and comfort options for our customers through our full line of protective workwear. Our products include unlined and unlined coveralls and bib overalls, parkas, fleece, vests, pants, shirts, and accessories such as headwear, hard-hat liners, and bags. Our FR Workwear is used in a variety of industries including oil and gas, petrochemical, mining, electrical, construction, railroad, and others. All our products are manufactured in North America and sold through distribution partners across Canada and parts of the United States.
In Red Deer, our state-of-the-art, 31,000-square-foot distribution centre carries a large inventory of different FR certified fabrics and several different colours for quick delivery. Most of our FR garments are UL Certified, and our materials meet safety standards and comply with industry standards controlled by the CGSB (Canadian General Standards Board), the CSA (Canadian Standards Association), the NFPA (National Fire Protection Association), the ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials International), and the OSHA
(Occupational Safety and Health Administration).
To provide consistent quality, we only use proven and tested fabrics like Westex™ UltraSoft® & DH, Avenger, DuPont™ Nomex®IIIA, Oratex Fleece, and components made in North America. 3M™ Scotchlite™ Reflective Striping is used on all garments to meet or exceed reflective visibility requirements of the industry.
IFR Workwear provides workers with premium safety protection, increasing productivity and overall satisfaction, through excellent fit guaranteed by a large range of sizes from 34 to 70 tall, customizations, fabrics, and styles. We have multiple embellishment capabilities such as embroidery, heat seal, sublimation, cresting, name tags, as well as the capability to do any adjustments or customizations.
With the emergence of the worldwide pandemic, we asked ourselves how we could contribute and help make a difference. From this, we rose to the challenge and created IFR Health in 2020, which includes hand sanitizers, gowns, scrubs, and both reusable and disposable masks. We also have a line of three-ply disposable masks that are made in Canada and meet ASTM levels 2 and 3. Check out our website for more information.
