FABRICS
PORT Our fabrics need to work hard. They need to protect and be comfortable, stretch and be durable, perform and be skin friendly. Great care and consideration is given to the selection of each and every fabric that is used across the entire range.

The special viscose blend provides outstanding ARC protection rarely achieved on lightweight fabrics. Constructed using 50% Viscose, 30% Modacrylic, 18% Aramid, 2% Anti-Static, Portflame Plus™ is available in 5.5oz. Modacrylic fibers provide inherent flame resistance, excellent dimensional stability and high elastic properties which allow garments to retain their shape. High cotton content gives the fabric comfort, warmth and a soft handle. Carbon fiber woven into the fabric gives inherent anti-static properties. DRAFT Bizflame® is a proprietary flame resistant finish which, when applied to fabric, gives excellent flame resistance. The carbon fiber yarns make the garments antistatic.
