Product Information

Full details

The Portwest FR Anti-Static Winter Jacket is designed for male adults working in demanding environments, particularly the offshore industry, offering superior warmth and flame resistance. Its key benefit is providing comprehensive protection against radiant, convective, and contact heat, alongside welding protection, while keeping the wearer warm with thick wadding and FR cotton lining. A potential caveat to consider is that while durable, it is a specialized garment and may not be suitable for all non-hazardous work environments.

FAQs

What specific EN standards does this jacket meet?

The jacket 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.

How is the flame resistance guaranteed?

The flame resistance is guaranteed for the life of the garment, meaning it is inherent to the fabric's construction and will not wash out.

Can this jacket be worn in all weather conditions?

It is designed for cold conditions due to its insulation. While it offers protection, it may be too warm for mild or hot weather.

What materials are used in the construction?

The shell fabric is Bizflame Plus (99% Cotton, 1% Carbon Fibre 350g), the lining is 100% Cotton Flame Resistant Lining (170g), and the filling is 100% Polyester Flame Resistant Filling (150g).

How do I clean the jacket to maintain its protective properties?

Wash according to care label instructions, typically with mild detergent in cold water. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners, as they can compromise flame resistance. Ensure it is clean and dry before storage.

Is the hood detachable?

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

What does 'Anti-Static' mean in this context?

It means the jacket is designed to minimize the buildup of static electricity, meeting the EN 1149-5 standard, which is important in environments where static discharge can be a hazard.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the teeth. Gently work the zipper back and forth. If still stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth.

Reflective tape appears damaged or is peeling

Avoid excessive heat or harsh detergents during washing. If minor peeling occurs, try re-pressing with a cool iron on the reverse side of the fabric. For significant damage, replacement may be necessary.

Reduced warmth or insulation effectiveness

Ensure the jacket is clean and dry. Built-up dirt or moisture can reduce insulation. Check that the hood is properly attached and zipped.

Cons

  • Specialized garment, not suitable for general wear.
  • May be too warm for moderate temperatures.
