FAQs

What specific heat hazards does this coverall protect against?

The coverall provides protection against radiant heat, convective heat, and direct contact heat.

How should I wash the coverall to preserve its FR properties?

Wash at a maximum of 40°C with a very mild process. Do not bleach, tumble dry, or dry clean. Line dry only. Limit washes to a maximum of 50.

Can I insert my own knee pads?

Yes, the coverall features knee pad pockets designed with an innovative two-tier adjustable system to accommodate standard knee pads for added protection.

What does 'FR' stand for in the product name?

'FR' stands for Flame Resistant, indicating the garment's ability to resist ignition and self-extinguish.

What material is the outer shell made of?

The shell fabric is Bizflame Work, composed of 99% Cotton and 1% Carbon Fibre.

Is this coverall suitable for all-day wear in cold weather?

Yes, it is designed with FR cotton lining and polyester filling for added warmth, making it suitable for cold conditions. However, assess your specific work environment and activity level.

How many pockets are included?

The coverall offers ample storage with a total of 10 pockets.

What is the UPF rating of the fabric?

The fabric has a 40+ UPF rating, which means it blocks over 98% of UV rays.

Troubleshooting

Coverall feels too warm

For milder weather or less strenuous tasks, consider layering with lighter garments underneath or opting for a non-insulated version of the coverall if available.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to close

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper teeth. Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush. If the stiffness persists, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) can be applied to the teeth.

Reflective tape is peeling

This typically occurs due to improper washing or excessive wear. Avoid tumble drying and harsh detergents. If peeling is minor, it might be repairable with appropriate fabric adhesive, but significant damage may require professional attention.

Fit is too restrictive

Ensure you have selected the correct size. The action back is designed for flexibility, but if movement is still significantly restricted, check the garment's fit around the shoulders and torso. The adjustable cuffs can also be loosened.
