Store Tychem® garments in a cool, dark, dry location free of dirt and insects. Sunlight, ozone, high temperatures (>120 °F), exhaust fumes, compression under heavy weight and/or sharp protrusions are some conditions known to degrade or damage the materials in these suits. Store Tychem® Level A and Level B encapsulating garments in boxes, in bags, or on hangers. Never step on or place heavy objects on top of chemical garments. |
Can your trailer reach 120°F? I will say this, regardless of your location in the USA, a trailer can reach this temp and sustain this temps for days on end.
