FAQs

What type of environments is this jacket best suited for?

This jacket is ideal for multi-risk environments, particularly those involving flame hazards and static electricity, such as in the petrochemical, electrical, or industrial sectors where protection from the elements is also required.

How should I care for the Bizflame FR Antistatic Jacket?

Machine wash at a maximum of 40°C on a mild process. Do not bleach, tumble dry, iron, or dry clean. Drip line dry. Adhering to these instructions is crucial for maintaining its protective properties and longevity.

What are the key certifications for this jacket?

The jacket is CE certified and UKCA marked. It meets standards EN ISO 14116 Index 3, EN 1149 -5 (Anti-static), EN 13034 Type PB [6] (Limited splash protection), EN 343 Class 3:1 X (Protection against rain), and EN 14058 Class 3 (Protection against cool conditions).

Can I use fabric softener when washing this jacket?

No, fabric softener should not be used as it can interfere with the anti-static properties and potentially affect the water-resistant and flame-resistant treatments.

What is the expected lifespan of the jacket?

The jacket is rated for a maximum of 12 washes. Its overall lifespan will depend on usage, care, and maintenance, but following the care instructions will help maximize its performance and durability within these limits.

Does the jacket offer protection against chemical splashes?

Yes, it meets EN 13034 Type PB [6], which provides protection against limited chemical splashes. However, it is not designed for full immersion or protection against all types of chemical exposure.

What material is the jacket made from?

The shell fabric is Bizflame Rain, consisting of 98% Polyester and 2% Carbon Fibre, with a breathable PU coating. The lining is 100% Cotton Flame Resistant Lining, and the filling is 100% Polyester Flame Resistant Filling.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer waterproof

Ensure all seams are intact. For minor wear, a re-waterproofing treatment suitable for technical fabrics might be considered, though this is not a standard care instruction. Check the PU coating integrity.

Reflective tape is peeling or damaged

Avoid harsh washing or drying methods. If significantly damaged, the reflective properties may be compromised. Replacement of the tape is not typically feasible for the end-user.

Jacket feels less warm after multiple washes

The filling may compress over time. Ensure washing instructions are strictly followed to preserve the filling's loft and insulating properties. Consider the maximum wash cycle limit.

Static electricity is still noticeable

Ensure the garment is clean and free from dirt or grease, which can affect anti-static performance. Confirm the garment has not been washed with fabric softeners, which can interfere with anti-static properties. Check for any damage to the conductive threads.
