DuPont has recently launched DuPont´ Tychem® ThermoPro, a single layer, triple-threat protection garment, at the Civil Defence Training Center in Dubai Academic City. DuPont´ Tychem® ThermoPro is an innovative single layer garment that offers protection from liquid-chemical jet, flash fire, and electric arc. During the launch, a live demonstration of DuPont´ Tychem® ThermoPro garment on the Thermo-Man® life-sized instrumented mannequin system was also conducted.

Historically, fire fighters did not have the same level of protective clothing used today. Because of this most fires were fought from the outside of burning buildings, and structures were rarely entered.
