Portwest Flame Resistant Anti-Static Coverall 350g - Blue - 34

CE-CAT III indicates that the garment falls into the highest category of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), signifying complex risks and requiring rigorous testing to ensure protection against serious or fatal injuries.

The flame resistance is guaranteed for the entire life of the garment, provided it is cared for according to the manufacturer's instructions.

The 350g Bizflame Plus fabric offers significant protection but may be warm in extremely hot conditions. For very high temperatures, consider if the level of protection offered by this garment is balanced with thermal comfort needs for your specific task.

This coverall meets multiple standards including EN 1149-5 (Anti-static), EN ISO 11612 (Protection against heat and flame), EN ISO 11611 (Protection for welding), and IEC 61482-2 (Protection against electric arc).

No, knee pads are not included. The coverall features patented knee pad pockets designed to accommodate compatible knee pads, which must be purchased separately.

Wash at a maximum of 40°C (104°F), do not bleach, and tumble dry on low heat or line dry. Iron at a medium setting. Avoid dry cleaning and fabric softeners, as these can compromise the protective qualities.

The anti-static feature helps to dissipate static electricity, reducing the risk of sparks in environments where flammable materials or sensitive electronics are present, thereby enhancing safety.

This can sometimes occur with technical fabrics. Ensure you are using the correct washing temperature and detergent as per the care label. Avoid fabric softeners, which can degrade performance. Proper drying (avoiding excessive heat) also helps maintain fabric feel.

Inspect the tape for signs of wear. If minor, it may be possible to carefully re-adhere it following specific instructions for flame-resistant tape, but significant damage may compromise its effectiveness and reflectivity. Consider replacement if safety is impacted.

Ensure the fabric around the zipper is not caught. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it remains stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth. Avoid silicone-based lubricants, which might affect fabric properties.

Verify that the correct size has been selected. Check that knee pads, if used, are correctly positioned within the adjustable pockets. Ensure all adjustable cuffs or fastenings are set appropriately for your body.
