The webinar centered around research conducted by North Carolina State University’s Textile Protection and Comfort Center (TPACC) and focused on developing a system-level methodology for evaluating protective hood materials and designs for trade-offs between protection (particulate and flashfire), comfort, durability, and situational awareness.
