This flame-resistant work jacket from Portwest offers high-quality protection for professionals working in high-risk industrial environments. Its functional design has been specifically developed for situations where exposure to heat, flames, and electric arcs poses a real danger. Thanks to the well-considered material blend, this jacket combines certified safety with a modern fit, ensuring the wearer remains optimally protected against various thermal and chemical risks during daily work activities.
For which specific working environments is this flame-resistant work jacket from Portwest suitable?
This flame-resistant work jacket is ideally suited for heavy industrial sectors such as petrochemicals, installation technology, and the energy sector. Thanks to its antistatic properties and compliance with ATEX directives, the jacket can be worn safely in environments with an explosion hazard.
Additionally, the jacket offers protection during welding work in accordance with EN ISO 11611 Class 1. The fabric protects the wearer against brief contact with flames, radiant heat, and convective heat, which is essential when working near furnaces, electrical installations, or liquid chemicals.
What does the EN ISO 11612 standard on this flame-resistant work jacket mean?
The EN ISO 11612 standard on this flame-resistant work jacket indicates that the clothing is certified against heat and flames. The specific codes A1 and A2 stand for limited flame spread during both surface and edge ignition.
The letters B1, C1, and F1 denote the performance classes for protection against convective heat, radiant heat, and contact heat, respectively. Because the flame-resistant properties are inherently built into the fiber of the Modaflame fabric, these protective qualities are not lost during washing.
The jacket is equipped with innovative stretch panels and articulated sleeves for maximum freedom of movement. Eight storage pockets and rear ventilation openings offer optimal daily comfort.
