FAQs

What standards does this jacket meet?

The jacket is CE certified and UKCA marked, indicating compliance with relevant European and UK safety regulations for personal protective equipment, including flame resistance and anti-static properties.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

Yes, the jacket is fully lined and padded with flame-resistant materials, designed to trap heat and increase warmth, making it suitable for cold conditions.

How many pockets does the jacket have?

The jacket features a total of four pockets: an internal chest pocket, a phone pocket, and two external pockets for ample storage.

Can I wear this jacket in the rain?

Absolutely. The jacket is made from flame-resistant treated waterproof fabric with taped seams, ensuring water penetration is prevented while remaining breathable.

What is the shell fabric made of?

The shell fabric is Bizflame Rain, composed of 98% Polyester and 2% Carbon Fibre, with a breathable PU coating.

How should I clean the jacket to maintain its properties?

Machine wash at 40°C with a mild detergent, do not bleach, tumble dry on low, and iron on a low setting. Avoid dry cleaning and fabric softeners. Follow care label instructions for best results.

What does 'anti-static' mean in this context?

Anti-static properties help to reduce the build-up of static electricity on the garment, which is crucial in environments where static discharge could ignite flammable materials or cause harm.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is not completely waterproof after washing.

Ensure all seams are intact and the PU coating is not damaged. Re-waterproofing treatments specifically designed for technical outdoor wear might be necessary if the fabric's performance has degraded over time. Always follow the recommended washing instructions.

Reflective tape appears to be peeling or cracking.

This can occur with excessive heat during washing or drying. Ensure you are using the recommended low heat settings for both tumble drying and ironing. Avoid harsh detergents or bleach which can degrade the tape adhesive.

Static electricity is still noticeable.

While the jacket is anti-static, performance can be affected by extremely dry environments or by wearing synthetic base layers that generate static. Consider wearing natural fiber base layers like cotton. Ensure the garment is clean, as dirt can sometimes affect anti-static properties.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Ensure the zipper area is clean and free from debris. Apply a small amount of wax or a specialized zipper lubricant. Avoid forcing the zipper, as this can cause damage.
