The Portwest Modaflame Multi Arc Trouser is designed for male adults working in hazardous environments requiring protection against multiple risks, including arc flash, flame, and hazardous chemicals. Its key benefit is its versatility, transforming from bib trousers to standard trousers via a zip-off function, while offering robust FR protection. A potential caveat is the specialized nature of its protection, which may not be necessary for all work environments.

It protects against arc flash, flame, heat, welding, chemical splashes (Type 6), and provides high visibility. It also has anti-static properties.
The bib is designed to be zipped off and reattached. It is not intended for permanent removal. The zipper mechanism allows for this conversion.
The shell fabric is Modaflame Rain, composed of 98% Polyester and 2% Carbon Fibre with a PU breathable flame-resistant coating, bonded with a flame-resistant knitted backing.
Always follow the specific care instructions: wash at 40°C, do not bleach, line dry, and iron at a low temperature. Proper care is crucial for maintaining the flame-resistant and waterproof properties.
These trousers are rated for EN 13034 Type 6 chemical splash protection, which is suitable for light splashes. They are not designed for full immersion or protection against all types of chemicals.
'Multi Norm' indicates that the garment complies with multiple safety standards, offering protection against a range of different hazards in a single product.
While the fabric is breathable, the multi-layer construction and FR lining are designed for protection. For extremely hot conditions, consider ventilation and personal comfort. The waterproof nature may also reduce breathability in high heat.
This can be due to the FR treatment. Ensure you are following the recommended washing and drying procedures. A low-temperature iron may help restore some flexibility.
Check if the seams are properly taped and if the waterproof coating shows signs of wear. Ensure cleaning instructions are followed to maintain coating integrity. Minor wear on seams might be repairable by re-taping, but significant coating damage may require replacement.
Ensure the zipper is clean and free of debris. Apply a silicone-based lubricant designed for zippers. Avoid forcing the zipper, which could cause damage.
This often occurs due to improper washing or abrasion. Avoid high heat drying and excessive tumbling in the wash. For minor peeling, gentle heat application might help re-adhere it, but significant damage usually means replacement is necessary to maintain visibility standards.
Setup: These trousers require no specific setup; they are ready to wear. Ensure proper sizing for optimal comfort and protection.
Compatibility: The trousers meet numerous safety standards (EN ISO 11612, EN ISO 11611, EN 1149-5, IEC 61482-2, EN 13034 Type 6, EN ISO 20471 Class 2, RIS-3279-TOM, EN 343 Class 3:1). Ensure these standards align with your workplace safety requirements.
