FAQs

What does 'Bizflame Rain' fabric mean?

'Bizflame Rain' refers to the shell fabric composition which is flame-resistant, waterproof, breathable, and PU coated, incorporating polyester and antistatic carbon fibre for enhanced protection and comfort.

How many pockets does the jacket have?

The jacket features 4 external pockets, a concealed phone pocket, and an internal chest pocket, offering a total of 6 storage locations.

Can this jacket be worn in very cold weather?

The jacket has an FR cotton lining for warmth, making it suitable for cooler conditions. For extreme cold, it is designed to be layered over other garments for additional insulation.

What is the purpose of the Bio Motion tape?

The Bio Motion tape pattern is designed to work with natural body movements, improving the recognition of the wearer's human shape at a distance, thereby enhancing visibility and safety.

What is the maximum number of times this jacket can be washed?

The jacket can be washed a maximum of 12 times. Beyond this limit, the protective properties of the fabric may be compromised.

Is the jacket suitable for both men and women?

While this specific variant is listed as 'Male', the Bizflame Rain Hi-Vis Multi Lite Jacket is also available in unisex options, depending on the specific model and size.

What does CE-CAT III mean?

CE-CAT III indicates that the garment falls into the highest category of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), signifying a high level of risk protection for the wearer.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is not very waterproof after some use.

Ensure the taped seams are intact. Prolonged use or improper washing can affect the waterproofness. Consider the wash limit (12 washes) as protective treatments may degrade over time.

Reflective tape is peeling off.

Avoid excessive heat during washing and drying. Do not iron directly on the tape. Ensure washing is done according to the care instructions (max 40°C, no tumble dry, no iron).

Jacket feels too warm or not breathable enough.

While breathable, extreme activity in high temperatures may still cause discomfort. Ensure the garment fits correctly and consider layering with lighter materials underneath. Check that inner pockets are not overstuffed, which could impede airflow.

Static electricity is still present.

Ensure the garment is clean and has not been washed with fabric softeners, which can neutralize anti-static properties. The anti-static feature is most effective when the garment is in contact with the skin or other conductive materials.
