FAQs

What is the primary purpose of this jacket?

The Portwest Bizflame FR Antistatic Jacket is designed to offer protection against flame, arc flash, and static electricity in hazardous work environments, while also providing water resistance and breathability.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The jacket is lined and padded for warmth, but it is primarily designed for protection in multi-risk environments. For extremely cold conditions, it is recommended to wear insulating layers underneath.

How should I clean the jacket to preserve its properties?

Machine wash at 40°C (104°F) and tumble dry on low heat. Avoid bleach, fabric softeners, and dry cleaning, as these can degrade the flame-resistant and waterproof qualities.

What does 'anti-static' mean in this context?

Anti-static means the fabric is designed to prevent the buildup of static electricity on the surface of the garment, reducing the risk of sparks in environments where flammable materials are present.

Can I wear this jacket in the rain?

Yes, the jacket is waterproof with taped seams and features a PU coating, making it suitable for protection against rain.

How many pockets does the jacket have?

The jacket features 4 pockets for ample storage, including an internal chest pocket, a phone pocket, and two external pockets.

What certifications does this jacket have?

The jacket is CE certified and UKCA marked, indicating compliance with relevant European and UK safety standards for protective clothing.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is not fully waterproof.

Ensure all seams are intact and that the storm flap and cuffs are properly fastened. Check that the hood is properly deployed or stowed. If damage is present, the garment may need replacement.

Reduced anti-static performance.

Clean the garment according to care instructions. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can interfere with anti-static properties. Ensure the garment is properly grounded by wearing it with other conductive footwear or accessories if required by the specific work environment.

Reflective tape is peeling.

This can happen with excessive washing or abrasion. The tape may need to be professionally reapplied or the garment replaced if visibility is compromised.

Jacket feels cold.

The jacket is designed for protection and moderate warmth. For extremely cold conditions, wear additional insulating layers underneath.
