FAQs

What does 'Bizflame Rain' mean?

Bizflame Rain refers to Portwest's proprietary fabric technology that combines flame resistance, anti-static properties, and waterproof/breathable capabilities.

Is this jacket suitable for welding?

The jacket offers flame resistance and anti-static properties, which provide a level of protection. However, it is not specifically designed as a heavy-duty welding jacket and should not replace specialized welding apparel for high-risk operations.

What is the difference between Class 3 and Type 6 certification?

EN ISO 20471 Class 3 refers to the highest level of visibility. EN 13034 Type 6 relates to protection against light spray of liquids, such as chemical splashes.

Can I wear this jacket in very hot weather?

While the fabric is breathable, it is an unpadded jacket. For extremely hot conditions, consider wearing lighter layers underneath or opting for a more ventilated garment if flame resistance is not critical.

How do I ensure the anti-static properties remain effective?

Ensure the garment is clean and that you are wearing appropriate footwear that allows for grounding. Avoid wearing synthetic layers that can build up static electricity.

What is the warranty period for this jacket?

Warranty information is typically detailed by the retailer. Please refer to your point of purchase for specific warranty terms and conditions.

Does the jacket come in other colors besides Orange and Yellow?

The primary high-visibility colors for this model are Orange and Yellow, which are certified to specific standards. Please check the product listings for available color options.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer waterproof.

Check the care label. Ensure you are using non-biological powder and no softener. Re-waterproofing treatments may be necessary if the coating is worn; consult the manufacturer's guidelines.

Reflective tape is peeling or damaged.

Avoid excessive heat during washing and drying. If damaged, the reflective integrity is compromised and the jacket may need replacement for high-visibility compliance.

Reduced breathability; wearer feels clammy.

Ensure inner layers are not trapping moisture. Check care instructions regarding detergent and softener. Clean the garment as per instructions to clear any potential blockages in the fabric pores.

Jacket feels stiff after washing.

Ensure no fabric softener was used. Iron on a low setting if needed. Airing the jacket out may help restore flexibility.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Offers multi-hazard protection including flame resistance, chemical splash resistance, and waterproofing.
  • Lightweight and breathable design ensures comfort during extended wear.
  • High-visibility features meet safety standards for day and night work.
  • Durable construction with taped seams for enhanced protection.
  • Ample storage options with multiple functional pockets.

Cons

  • Unpadded design may not provide sufficient warmth in very cold conditions.
  • Requires specific care instructions to maintain protective properties.
  • The effectiveness of the anti-static feature depends on proper grounding.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This is a ready-to-wear garment. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal comfort and protection. All features are inherent to the garment and require no activation.

Compatibility: The jacket is designed to be worn over other workwear. Its multi-protection standards mean it's suitable for environments requiring compliance with flame resistance, chemical splash, high-visibility, and waterproof standards. Available in Orange (RIS-3279-TOM compliant) and Yellow, in sizes ranging from S to XXXL.

Care Instructions: To maintain the integrity and performance of the Bizflame Rain fabric and FR lining:

  • Washing: Machine wash using a non-biological powder detergent. Follow the maximum temperature indicated on the care label (typically 30°C or 40°C).
  • Detergent: Use only non-biological powder. Biological detergents can degrade the fabric's protective properties over time.
  • Softener: Do not use fabric softener. Softeners can clog the pores of the breathable membrane and reduce its effectiveness, as well as affect flame-retardant properties.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to dry away from direct heat sources.
  • Ironing: Iron on a low setting if necessary, avoiding direct contact with reflective tape.
  • Professional Cleaning: For industrial laundering, follow specific guidelines provided by Portwest for maintaining performance standards.
