FAQs

What specific hazards does this jacket protect against?

The jacket protects against radiant, convective, and contact heat, is rated for Class 2 welding, and possesses anti-static properties. It is also designed for warmth in cold conditions and offers high visibility.

How long does the flame resistance last?

The flame resistance is guaranteed for the entire life of the garment, provided care instructions are followed.

Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?

Yes, the jacket is specifically designed for cold conditions with a 100% Cotton FR lining and 150g Polyester FR filling for added warmth.

What is the UV protection rating?

The fabric is rated 50+ UPF, which blocks approximately 98% of UV rays.

Are the reflective strips durable?

Yes, the jacket uses premium, sew-on, flame-resistant reflective tape that is double-stitched for enhanced durability and visibility.

Is the hood detachable?

Yes, the hood is detachable and attaches via a brass zip.

What are the main materials used in the jacket?

The shell fabric is Bizflame Plus (99% Cotton, 1% Carbon Fibre), the lining is 100% Cotton Flame Resistant Lining, and the filling is 100% Polyester Flame Resistant Filling.

What standards does this jacket meet?

It meets EN ISO 11612 A1+A2 B1, C1, E2, F1; EN 1149 -5; EN 342 0.321 (M².K/W), 2, X; and EN ISO 11611 Class 2 A1+A2.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels too stiff or restrictive.

Ensure the jacket is properly sized. Wear it over appropriate base layers. The Bizflame Plus fabric may require a short break-in period with use.

Reflective tape appears damaged or is peeling.

Avoid high heat drying and excessive ironing directly on the tape. If damage has occurred, contact customer support for potential repair or replacement options if under warranty.

Reduced warmth after washing.

Check care label instructions carefully. Ensure you did not use fabric softener or bleach, which can degrade insulation and FR properties. Ensure the filling is evenly distributed.

Zipper is difficult to operate.

Ensure the zipper is clear of fabric or debris. Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. A small amount of wax or silicone lubricant can help if it remains stiff.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

The jacket requires no specific setup beyond ensuring all zippers and closures are functional before use. The detachable hood can be attached or removed as needed via its brass zip.

Compatibility:

This jacket is designed to be worn as outer protective apparel. It meets multiple EN standards, including EN ISO 11612, EN 1149-5, EN 342, and EN ISO 11611, ensuring compatibility with other safety equipment that adheres to similar standards. It is suitable for adult male wearers.

Care Instructions:

To maintain the garment's flame-resistant and anti-static properties, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Wash according to the care label instructions. Typically, machine wash cold with similar colors. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the FR properties.
  2. Detergent: Use mild detergents specifically designed for flame-resistant fabrics if possible.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on a low setting or air dry. Avoid high heat, which can damage the fabric and insulation.
  4. Ironing: If ironing is necessary, use a cool iron setting and avoid ironing over the reflective tape.
  5. Storage: Store in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight and potential contaminants.
