The Portwest flame-resistant trousers offer excellent protection and comfort for professionals in high-risk working environments. These multi-norm work trousers are specifically designed for wearers exposed to heat, flames, and static electricity who also need to remain highly visible during their daily tasks. Thanks to a well-considered construction with innovative stretch panels, this model combines a high level of safety with optimal freedom of movement on the work floor.
For which specific tasks and sectors are these Portwest flame-resistant trousers most suitable?
This model is ideally suited for professionals in the petrochemical, installation, and utility sectors working in ATEX environments. Thanks to certification according to the EN 1149-5 standard, the garment offers reliable anti-static protection.
Additionally, the trousers are designed for situations where protection against the thermal hazards of an electric arc and flames is required, in accordance with the strict EN ISO 11612 and EN 61482 standards. Their non-magnetic properties also make the trousers safe for use around sensitive equipment.
What does the EN ISO 20471 Class 1 rating mean for these flame-resistant trousers?
The EN ISO 20471 Class 1 rating indicates that these trousers offer the wearer basic visibility in low-risk situations. This is achieved through strategically placed, segmented reflective tape and reflective piping.
Unlike a standard model without this rating, this class ensures you are more noticeable in low-light conditions. This makes the trousers a safe choice for locations where both flame-resistant properties and minimal visual recognition are mandatory.
The trousers feature detachable holster pockets, ten storage pockets, a ruler pocket, and top-loading kneepad pockets. The adjustable leg length ensures a perfect fit.
