FAQs

What specific certifications does this coverall have?

This coverall is certified to EN ISO 11612: 2015 (A1 A2 B1 C1 E3 F1), EN ISO 11611: 2015 (Class 1 A1 A2), and EN ISO 1149-5: 2008.

Is this coverall suitable for all types of welding?

It is certified for welding and allied processes (Class 1). However, always consult your workplace safety guidelines for the specific welding applications and required PPE.

Can I wear this coverall as everyday workwear if my job isn't hazardous?

While durable, this coverall is specifically designed with flame-retardant and electrostatic properties for hazardous environments. For non-hazardous work, a standard coverall might be more comfortable and cost-effective.

How should I clean this garment to ensure it remains flame retardant?

Machine wash at max 40°C with mild detergent. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners. Avoid dry cleaning. Refer to the 'Care Instructions' section for full details.

Is the sizing unisex?

Yes, this coverall is designed as unisex for adults.

What material is the coverall made from?

It is made from a 320gm² fabric consisting of 99% cotton and 1% antistatic material.

What are the benefits of the action back design?

The action back allows for greater freedom of movement, making it easier to reach, bend, and twist during work activities.

Troubleshooting

Coverall feels stiff after washing.

This can sometimes occur with FR treated fabrics. Ensure you are using a mild detergent and not fabric softener. Tumble drying on low heat may help soften the fabric.

Flame-retardant properties seem reduced.

Ensure you are strictly following the care instructions. Avoid bleach, fabric softeners, and dry cleaning, as these can damage the FR treatment. Inspect for any contamination that may affect performance.

Pockets not lying flat or buttons difficult to fasten.

Ensure the coverall is correctly sized. Check for any internal obstructions or damage to the pocket linings or stud fastenings. Some stiffness is normal with new or heavy-duty workwear.

Static electricity is still noticeable.

While certified to dissipate static, extreme conditions or highly specific environments may still present minimal static. Ensure the garment is clean and properly cared for, as contamination can affect its properties. Consider the overall environment and any other materials being worn or used.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This is a ready-to-wear garment. Ensure it is the correct size before wearing. Check all fastenings and pockets are secure before commencing work.

Compatibility: This coverall is designed for unisex adult use. It is compatible with a range of safety accessories, provided they do not compromise the garment's flame-retardant or electrostatic properties.

Care Instructions: To maintain the integrity and protective qualities of the flame-retardant fabric, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at a maximum of 40°C (104°F) with a mild detergent. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry away from direct heat sources.
  3. Ironing: Iron on a medium heat setting. Ensure the garment is clean before ironing.
  4. Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean. The solvents used can degrade the flame-retardant treatment.
  5. Maintenance: Regularly inspect the coverall for any signs of wear, damage, or contamination. Do not wear if damaged. Avoid industrial laundering if it involves harsh chemicals or processes that could compromise the FR properties.
