Stitched intake seams for increased strength. Highly visible orange fabric. Designed with MICROCHEM chemical barrier technology. This innovation has enabled us to create a more versatile protective barrier with a comprehensive cover. AlphaTec 4000 CFR was worn over a primary thermal FR protective garment.
