Assurance that fabric’s fireproof properties
will remain throughout the whole suit’s usage
period is the key to your peace of mind. Suits
fabricated out of Mars and
Mercury (Klopman,
Italy) with durable FR
treatment Proban®,
resistant to washes
and industrial laundry.
FR indicators of Mars and Mercury
fabrics in several times exceed Rhodia requi-
rements – developer and manufacturer of
Proban® FR technology.
Company Rhodia imposes strict requirements
to quality control, mandatorily and indepen-
dently tests each sample of fabric for FR pro-
perties after 50 washes in accordance with
ISO 17025 method in an accredited labora-
tory.
In compliance with stricter requirements of
ISO 15797 (article 8А), Klopman has tested
the fabric for FR properties after 100 washes
at a temperature of 75°С. These tests have
confirmed that the FR properties of the Mars
and Mercury fabric are maintained after mul-
tiple industrial washes. In order to guarantee
high quality and safety standards as per ISO
15025 Part А, Klopman constantly monitors
each stage of treatment application by Pro-
ban®, and executes some additional tests.

Proban®
technology
Proban® is a technology
for imparting fireproof
properties, which retain
after long-term wearing
and multiple washes to cot-
ton and cotton-containing
fabrics.
How does fire affect fab-
rics treated with
Proban®?
When fire affects fabric
treated with Proban®, a
permanent insulated layer
forms to help protecting
the user of this clothing.
Fabrics treated with
Proban® do not smolder,
melt, and fire does not
spread beyond the insulat-
ing layer.
Certification of the fabric manufacturer
under this standard guarantees that the
fabric represents no risk for human’s he-
alth and ensures clothing safety.
