Geliget Gear® Standards

Inspired by Resilience and Protection
Geliget Gear® brings together function and form to create high performance workwear demanded by intense environments. Made in Nova Scotia, Canada, Geliget derives its name from the language of our indigenous people, the Mi'kmaq, who first persevered in a land of extremes. Through ingenuity, these First Peoples devised the tools and materials necessary for their survival.
The Mi'kmaq used the term "geliget" to signify protection and now we use that word to describe the central focus of our line of FR workwear.

Special Care for FR Garments
Detergents and Supplemental Chemicals to Avoid:

Hydrogen Peroxide Bleach: Presence of metals with oxygen bleach adversely affects FR performance.
Softeners & Starches: Home fabric softeners and starches should be completely avoided.
