The Portwest women's flame-resistant work trousers, model FR445, are specifically designed for female professionals who require optimal protection in high-risk work environments. These trousers offer certified safety against exposure to heat, flames, and welding spatters. Thanks to the specific feminine fit and functional storage options, this model effortlessly combines high-quality protection with the daily comfort required during heavy-duty industrial work.
For which specific tasks and sectors are these flame-resistant women's work trousers suitable?
These trousers are ideally suited for welding work, metalworking, and work in ATEX zones where there is an explosion hazard. Thanks to the EN ISO 11611 Class 2 certification, the trousers offer excellent protection for heavy-duty welding techniques and situations involving significant welding spatters and radiant heat.
In addition, the trousers are certified according to the EN 1149-5 standard for antistatic properties. This makes the garment indispensable for professionals in the petrochemical industry, the energy sector, and other environments where static electricity and sparking must be strictly avoided.
What do the EN ISO 11612 and EN 61482 standards mean for these flame-resistant women's work trousers?
The EN ISO 11612 standard guarantees that the trousers protect against heat and flames, specified for radiant, convective, and contact heat, as well as against splashes of molten metal. This minimizes the risk of burns in the event of an incident.
The EN 61482-2 standard, with an APC 1 and ELIM value of 8.6 cal/cm², means that the trousers provide protection against the thermal hazards of an electric arc. This ensures you are protected against extreme heat development in the event of a short circuit in electrical installations.
