Product Information

Full details

This Portwest Flame Resistant Anti-Static Coverall is designed for adult males working in demanding environments like the offshore industry. Its key benefit is offering robust protection against flame, heat, and static discharge, combined with enhanced visibility. A potential caveat is its specialized nature, making it less suitable for general-purpose work. Key features include Bizflame Plus fabric, triple-stitched seams, reflective tape, concealed brass zips, and patented knee pad pockets.

FAQs

What does CE-CAT III mean?

CE-CAT III indicates that the product falls under the highest category for Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) according to European standards, signifying a high level of risk and requiring rigorous testing for protection against hazards like flame, heat, and electric arcs.

Is the flame resistance permanent?

Yes, the flame resistance of the Bizflame Plus fabric is guaranteed for the life of the garment, provided the care instructions are followed correctly. It is inherent to the fabric's construction and not a coating.

Can I wear this coverall for welding?

Yes, this coverall is certified with EN ISO 11611 Class 2 A1+A2, making it suitable for Class 2 welding protection against specific welding-related hazards.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the Portwest sizing guide, which typically correlates UK waist sizes to garment measurements. Ensure you measure your waist accurately. The coverall is available in sizes ranging from XS to 6XL.

What is the UPF rating?

The coverall has a UPF 50+ rating, which means it provides excellent protection against harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun.

Can I wear ordinary jeans under this coverall?

While you can wear clothing underneath, it's recommended to wear non-synthetic base layers that are also flame-resistant or inherently flame-retardant to maintain the overall protective integrity of your workwear system.

How should I clean the coverall to maintain its properties?

Machine wash at 40°C with a mild process. Do not bleach or dry clean. Use industrial washing services if needed, and ensure all fastenings are closed before washing. Follow the care label instructions precisely.

Troubleshooting

Coverall does not feel flame-retardant.

Ensure the garment has not been treated with any waterproofing agents or detergents that could compromise the flame-retardant properties. Follow the recommended washing instructions strictly. Flame resistance is inherent to the fabric and guaranteed for the life of the garment under normal use and care.

Reflective tape is peeling or damaged.

Avoid harsh scrubbing or abrasive cleaning methods. If damage occurs, the garment's visibility may be compromised. Consider replacing the garment if the reflective tape is significantly damaged, as it is crucial for safety.

Zips are stiff or difficult to use.

Ensure the zip is clear of fabric and debris. Gently try to move the zip back and forth. If the issue persists, a small amount of wax or a silicone-based lubricant (ensure it is compatible with flame-retardant materials) can be applied sparingly to the zip teeth.

Knee pad pockets are not holding pads securely.

Ensure you are using the correct size knee pads designed for this garment's two-tier system. Adjust the position of the knee pad within the pocket to find the most secure fit. Make sure the pocket flap is closed correctly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior flame and heat resistance certified to multiple international standards.
  • Excellent visibility due to high-quality reflective tape and design.
  • Durable construction with triple-stitched seams for longevity.
  • Functional features like multiple pockets and knee pad compatibility enhance usability.
  • Anti-static properties offer crucial protection in hazardous environments.

Cons

  • May be too specialized for general work environments.
  • The 350g fabric weight might be warm for very hot climates.
  • Requires specific care to maintain flame-retardant properties.
  • Only available in a limited colour family (Grey) for this specific product variant.
  • While offering protection, it's essential to understand the specific arc rating (ATPV) and limitations.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This garment requires no setup; it is ready to wear upon purchase. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal fit and protection. The knee pad pockets are designed to accept compatible knee pads (sold separately), which can be inserted from the inside via a two-tier system for adjustable positioning.

Compatibility: This coverall is designed for adult males and is compatible with various safety accessories. It features radio loops for attaching communication devices. The hook and loop cuffs allow for adjustment to fit over or under gloves.

Care Instructions: To maintain the integrity and protective qualities of the flame-retardant fabric, follow these care guidelines:

  • Washing: Machine wash at a maximum of 40°C (104°F). Use a mild process.
  • Bleaching: Do not bleach. Avoid using detergents containing bleach or optical brighteners.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on a low setting or line dry.
  • Ironing: Iron at a medium temperature setting, no higher than 150°C (300°F).
  • Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean. Use industrial washing services if necessary.
  • Maintenance: Ensure all zips and fastenings are closed before washing. Wash dark colours together. Do not store in direct sunlight. It is recommended to wash the garment separately from other clothing items to preserve its properties. Follow the specific instructions on the garment's care label.
