Automotive Manufacturing
Durable, chemical-resistant fabric for assembly lines
Automotive assembly and manufacturing floors put fabric through frequent industrial laundering, abrasion from tooling, and exposure to oils and solvents. XM Textiles’ industrial-clothing fabrics are built for exactly this duty cycle — where a specific hazard such as arc flash or hot work exists on the line, an FR-certified fabric can be substituted in.
Certification on this range
General assembly-line workwear does not require an FR or hi-vis certification by default — but where a specific station involves hot work, welding or arc exposure, the matching certified fabric can be substituted in.
Heat & flame protection — for stations involving welding, brazing or other hot work on the line.
All XM Textiles fabrics are OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certified, confirming they are tested for harmful substances and safe against the skin.
