FAQs

What specific certifications does this coverall meet?

This coverall meets EN ISO 11612:2015 (A1 A2 B1 C1 E3 F1) for protection against heat and flame, EN ISO 11611:2015 (Class 1 A1 A2) for welding and allied processes, and EN ISO 1149-5:2008 for electrostatic properties.

What materials is the coverall made from?

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

How should I wash this coverall to maintain its safety features?

Machine wash at a maximum of 60°C (140°F) with mild detergents. Do not bleach, and tumble dry on medium heat. Avoid fabric softeners.

Is this coverall suitable for all types of work?

This coverall is specifically designed for environments with risks of heat, flame, and static electricity. It may be unnecessarily protective or uncomfortable for general work without these specific hazards.

Does the coverall have pockets for tools?

Yes, it features a chest pocket, an internal pocket, a ruler pocket, and side access pockets for convenient tool and item storage.

What does the 'Action Back' feature do?

The Action Back is a design feature that allows for increased flexibility and ease of movement, enabling a greater range of motion for the wearer.

Can I wear this coverall in very hot weather?

While the fabric offers some breathability, it is designed for protective qualities. For extremely hot conditions, consider layering with moisture-wicking undergarments. It is not specifically designed for extreme heat dissipation.

Troubleshooting

Coverall feels stiff after washing.

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and have avoided fabric softeners. Ironing on a medium setting can help restore fabric softness.

Reduced flame retardant properties suspected after extended use.

Follow care instructions meticulously. Excessive or improper washing can degrade treatment. Consult the manufacturer's guidelines on garment lifespan.

Static electricity persists despite antistatic properties.

Ensure the garment is clean and free from contaminants. Humid environments can sometimes affect static dissipation. Check that the garment is not damaged.

Zipper or stud fasteners are difficult to operate.

Check for obstructions in the zipper teeth or around the studs. Clean the fasteners gently. If damaged, contact customer support.
