Westex and Cone Denim® team up for workwear industry

Companies partner to provide flame resistant denim apparel.

Westex by Milliken and Cone Denim will provide flame-resistant (FR) denim apparel fabrics through an exclusive partnership, merging fashion and comfort with protective, reliable industrial workwear.

Consumer insights showed an unmet need for guaranteed FR denim to provide the same comfort and style of everyday denim apparel, often the fabric of choice for workers in outside elements, including reduced shrinkage and a soft hand.

A Milliken & Co. business, Westex has more than 50 years of experience manufacturing FR fabrics for global utilities, electrical maintenance, oil and gas, and metals industries. Cone Denim has supplied denim fabrics to top apparel brands since 1891.
