FAQs

What is the primary purpose of this jacket?

The primary purpose is to provide multi-protection, including flame resistance, waterproofing, anti-static properties, and high visibility for workers in hazardous environments.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

This is a lightweight, unpadded jacket. While it has an FR cotton lining for some warmth, it is designed as a protective outer layer and may require additional insulation for extreme cold.

How do I wash the jacket to maintain its properties?

Wash using non-biological powder on a gentle cycle. Do not use fabric softener. Refer to the care label for specific temperature guidelines.

What does EN ISO 20471 Class 3 mean?

This standard indicates the highest level of visibility for protective clothing. Class 3 signifies sufficient material surface area for fluorescent and retroreflective properties, ensuring the wearer is seen.

Can I use bleach or harsh detergents on this jacket?

No, bleach and harsh detergents should not be used as they can damage the fabric and compromise its protective qualities, including flame resistance and waterproofing.

What is the waterproof rating and breathability of the fabric?

The jacket has a waterproof rating (WP) of 11,000mm and a Moisture Vapor Permeability (MVP) of 13,000g/m2/24hrs, indicating good protection against water and decent breathability.

Is the reflective tape permanently attached?

Yes, it is premium sew-on flame resistant reflective tape, designed for durability through washing and wear.

Troubleshooting

Water is penetrating the jacket.

Ensure all seams are properly sealed. Check the care label; if the jacket has been washed with softener, its waterproof properties may be reduced. Re-evaluate washing methods.

Reflective tape appears damaged or is peeling.

Avoid high heat during washing and drying. Do not iron directly on the reflective tape. If damage is significant, the tape may need professional replacement.

Jacket feels less breathable.

Check if the inner lining is soiled or if the outer fabric is clogged with dirt. Follow the recommended washing instructions carefully, ensuring no residue is left.

Static electricity is still noticeable.

Ensure the garment is clean and has not been treated with fabric softeners. In very dry environments, some minimal static may still occur. Check that the antistatic properties meet the specific needs of your work environment.
