materials do not. " When it comes to protective
clothing systems, the protection
requirements are not gender speciic, "
says Clare King, president of Pawtucket,
R.I.-based Propel LLC, a textile product innovation
company that focuses primarily
on the U.S. Military and Fire Service markets.
" What is critical for PPE for women
is the garment it. A garment that is unisex
or designed to a men's it and sizing
system may present serious safety issues
if a woman had to wear the same. For example,
sleeves that are too long can be a
hazard, as can a garment that is too wide
or too long. "
Although it for women is more of an
issue due to existing standards, it's not a
gender-speciic need. The bottom line is
" that it is a work hazard when your clothes
do not it properly, " Lovett says. " If you
need to hike up your pants to bend over or
squat, you might drop your tools. We have
found that the fabric weight and breathability
is not just a woman's issue-we
think about men and women as the same. "

women is growing, even though it is still
the smaller segment of the market. " The
market has been growing slightly over
the past few years, " Lovett says. " What has
changed is that we are acknowledging the
need and have committed to providing
for women regardless of the exact
proitability of doing so. "
The bottom line for women's protective
clothing is-always-safety, no matter
what the market share, McQuerry says.
