This Portwest flame-resistant coverall is designed for adult males working in demanding environments like the offshore industry, offering enhanced safety with its Bizflame Plus fabric and high-visibility features. Its key benefit is robust protection against flame, radiant and convective heat, and molten metal splash, while a potential caveat is the specific need for professional industrial washing to maintain its protective properties. Features include triple-stitched seams, reflective tape, knee pad pockets, radio loops, and concealed brass zips.

The primary hazards are flame, radiant and convective heat, molten metal splash, and arc flash.
It is crucial to follow industrial washing guidelines and use approved detergents. Avoid home laundering and harsh chemicals like bleach.
The 350g fabric provides significant protection but may be warm in very high temperatures. Proper undergarments and staying hydrated are recommended.
No, knee pads are not included but the garment features patented knee pad pockets designed for easy insertion and adjustment.
CE-CAT III indicates that the garment falls into the highest category of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) according to European standards, signifying significant protection against serious hazards.
The sew-on tape is designed for industrial washing. Avoid abrasive cleaning methods directly on the tape to prevent damage.
The concealed zip prevents snagging and provides a cleaner look, while the two-way function allows for easier access and ventilation when needed.
Ensure the coverall has been washed according to industrial laundry standards and using appropriate detergents. Avoid home washing or the use of harsh chemicals like bleach.
This may indicate excessive abrasion or improper washing. Inspect the tape and consider professional repair if possible, though it may affect certification if compromised.
Clean the brass zip gently with a soft brush and apply a small amount of beeswax or silicone-based lubricant. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth.
Verify that the correct size was purchased. Adjust hook and loop cuffs for a better fit. If using knee pads, ensure they are correctly inserted into the patented pockets.
Setup: This coverall requires no assembly. It is designed to be worn as a single garment. Ensure the correct size is selected for optimal fit and comfort.
Compatibility: Compatible with standard radio devices clipped onto the radio loops. Knee pad pockets are designed to accommodate compatible knee pads (sold separately) with an adjustable system.
Care: To maintain the flame-retardant properties and overall integrity of the garment, industrial washing is recommended. Follow the care label instructions precisely. Avoid using household detergents or bleach, as these can degrade the fabric's protective qualities. Ensure the garment is clean and free from contaminants that could compromise its performance.
