FAQs
What specific hazards does this coverall protect against?
This coverall provides protection against heat, flames, welding and allied processes, and also possesses electrostatic properties. It meets standards like EN ISO 11612 and EN ISO 11611.
Is this coverall suitable for all types of industrial work?
It is primarily designed for work involving risks of heat, flame, and sparks. While it offers general utility with its pockets and comfortable fit, its core protection is for thermal and electrostatic hazards.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
Refer to the Dickies size chart for waist measurements. The coverall features an elasticated back for some adjustability, but selecting the correct waist size is essential for proper fit and protection.
Can I wear regular clothes underneath?
Yes, you can wear regular clothing underneath. However, for enhanced safety, especially concerning electrostatic discharge, it's recommended to wear base layers made of natural fibers or flame-retardant materials if possible.
How should I care for the coverall to maintain its protective features?
Wash in cool to warm water (check label), avoid bleach and fabric softeners, and tumble dry on low heat or line dry. Do not dry clean. Proper care is vital for preserving the flame-retardant treatment.
What does 'action back' mean?
The 'action back' is a design feature, typically pleats or gathering in the shoulder blade area, that allows for greater ease of movement and flexibility when reaching or stretching.
Are there other colours or sizes available?
Yes, this model is available in other colours such as Orange and Blue, and in a range of sizes. Please check the product listings for available variants.
Troubleshooting
Coverall feels tight or restrictive
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Check the size chart against your measurements. The 'action back' and 'elasticated back' are designed to improve flexibility, but a fundamentally incorrect size will limit movement.
Flame-retardant properties seem diminished after washing
Review the care instructions. Avoid using fabric softeners, bleach, or high washing/drying temperatures, as these can compromise the flame-retardant treatment. Ensure only approved laundry detergents are used.
Electrostatic discharge is still noticeable
While the coverall has electrostatic properties (EN ISO 1149-5), complete elimination of static can depend on environmental factors (humidity) and other clothing worn. Ensure no non-compliant materials are worn underneath that could generate static.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This is a ready-to-wear garment. Ensure it is the correct size for optimal comfort and protection. Always fasten all studs and zippers before use.

Care Instructions: To maintain the integrity and protective qualities of the flame-retardant fabric, it is crucial to follow specific washing guidelines. Generally, wash at a moderate temperature (e.g., 40°C or 60°C, check label) with similar colours. Avoid using bleach, fabric softeners, or harsh detergents, as these can degrade the flame-retardant finish. Tumble dry on a low heat setting or line dry. Iron on a medium setting if necessary. Do not dry clean. Always refer to the care label inside the garment for precise instructions.
