Ventilated Trim Provides Conduit for Vapor Release

Lion's Ventilated Trim provides breathability to a traditionally impermeable component of your turnout gear.  Moisture can collect between the reflective trim and the outer shell of your turnout.  Ventilated Trim is perforated with 0.8 mm holes (114 per square inch) to provide a conduit  for the release of vapor that can occur when moisture is heated and the trim compressed.

The perforations on Ventilated Trim provide a conduit for vapor away from the fire fighter’s body.	On standard trim, moisture can accumulate between the outer shell and trim. When the trim is compressed and heated, the trapped moisture can vaporize and transfer heat toward the fire fighter’s body.
