Portwest's flame-resistant work trousers offer maximum protection and visibility for professionals working in high-risk environments. These multi-norm trousers are specifically designed for situations where exposure to heat, flames, and static electricity is a daily risk. Thanks to the combination of high-quality materials and a thoughtful design, this garment guarantees optimal safety during heavy-duty work.
Which specific work environments are these flame-resistant Portwest work trousers suitable for?
These trousers are ideally suited for professionals in the petrochemical, installation technology, and utility sectors where strict safety requirements apply. Thanks to the non-magnetic properties, with the trousers being completely free of nickel and iron, the clothing can be worn safely in sensitive environments.
Furthermore, the model is certified for use in ATEX zones, where there is a risk of explosion due to static electricity. The inherent flame-resistant properties are built into the fiber, ensuring that protection is fully maintained even after repeated industrial washing.
What do the EN ISO 11612 and EN ISO 20471 standards mean for these flame-resistant work trousers?
The EN ISO 11612 standard indicates that the trousers are certified for protection against heat and flames, including contact heat and radiant heat. The added classes A1+A2, B1, C1, and F1 specify the level of resistance to various heat sources.
The EN ISO 20471 Class 2 standard guarantees high visibility thanks to the fluorescent fabric and segmented reflective striping. This ensures the wearer is clearly visible in the workplace both during the day and at dusk.
