G-XTREME, GX-7 and Traditional styles are also available to meet the Proximity requirement of NFPA 1971 for use in environments where high radiant heat loads may be encountered such as aircraft rescue and industrial applications.  These garments utilize a reflective aluminized film for radiant heat resistance laminated to a knit PBI® blend for the outer shell.  Globe Firefighter Suits Proximity Gear is available with your choice of moisture barriers an thermal liners as well as a wide variety of custom options.
 

Because firefighters wearing Proximity Gear may be exposed to higher levels of heat, we recommend choosing one of the moisture barriers from W.L. Gore & Associates.  Their barriers provide increased thermal stability (ability to endure higher temperatures and higher heat fluxes) than any other competitive barrier.
