For which specific working environments is this flame-resistant hi-vis jacket suitable?
This jacket is designed for heavy industrial sectors where workers are exposed to multiple risks. It is ideal for petrochemical environments, the offshore industry, and utility sectors where flame-resistant and antistatic clothing is mandatory.
Thanks to the EN ISO 20471 Class 3 certification, the highest class for visibility, the jacket is also perfect for railway and road construction work in the dark. The ESD properties in accordance with EN 1149-5 enable safe working in explosive atmospheres.
What do the EN 343 and EN ISO 14116 standards mean for this flame-resistant hi-vis jacket?
The EN 343 Class 3:1 X rating guarantees that the jacket offers the highest class of waterproof protection, while the taped seams completely block water penetration.
The EN ISO 14116 Index 3 rating indicates that the material is resistant to limited flame spread; the fabric will not continue to burn or melt upon brief contact with an open flame. This provides vital extra reaction time in emergency situations, unlike standard workwear.
