Description
The Portwest bib and brace is a high-quality overall specifically designed for professionals who require optimal protection and visibility during their work in challenging weather conditions. This lined, two-tone trouser offers excellent protection for both the lower body and the chest. Thanks to its robust construction and functional details, this model is ideal for intensive outdoor use in the construction, infrastructure, and logistics sectors.
Which working conditions is this Portwest bib and brace best suited for?
This bib and brace is perfectly suited for work in extremely cold and wet outdoor environments.
Thanks to its certified EN 342 standard, the trousers offer thermal insulation and protection against cold temperatures down to -36 degrees Celsius. Additionally, the EN 343 Class 3:1 certification ensures excellent waterproofing with taped seams that effectively prevent rainwater penetration. This makes the overall ideal for railway workers, road workers, and construction professionals who need to perform outdoors during the winter months.
What do the safety standards of this bib and brace mean for my visibility on the work floor?
The overall meets the strict EN ISO 20471 Class 2 standard, which guarantees high visibility while working.
This means that the reflective striping and fluorescent fabric are sufficiently conspicuous in low-light situations or during bad weather. The orange version also meets the RIS 3279 TOM standard for the railway sector. Thanks to the contrasting dark panels in areas prone to dirt, the overall remains looking professional and retains its reflective properties.
With seven convenient storage pockets, including a dedicated phone pocket and a double rule pocket, these trousers offer plenty of practical storage space. The elasticated back panel and adjustable straps ensure a comfortable fit.
