FR JACKETS

Our jacket has a traditional and simple design. It has a spread collar, front zipper protected with a flap with snap button closure; adjustable cuffs and two pockets. It provides you extra freedom to move your arms thanks to the use of THERMOFILL®, a technical hypoallergenic and self-extinguished wadding that is 50% more compacted than regular ones, without losing its great thermal properties

To guarantee the durability of our jacket, the wadding is diamond quilted to its linning. Double stitched and bar tacked with FR thread to provide a better tear and fire resistance.

Wadding: THERMOFILL®
Linning: 100% cotton or FR fabric of your choice.

FR reflective tapes and X-PORE® for water resistant property can be added under special request
American standard which establishes that employees who are exposed to a possible arc flash should wear appropriate flame resistant garment for the risk level of their workplace. Employers must evaluate an arc flash to determinate the risk of potential energy and the limit of protection against the arc flash. The protective garment should cover the calculated incident energy or risk level, reaching at least its minimum ATPV.

Arc Thermal Performance Value - ATPV
  • Level 0: No risk
  • Level 1: between 4 to 7.9 cal/cm2
  • Level 2: between 8 to 24.9 cal/cm2
  • Level 3: between 25 to 39.9 cal/cm2
American standard for garments that protect from flash fire. The standard demands that after being washed a hundred times, the garment is put on a mannequin and exposed to 3 seconds of direct flame. In order to accomplish the standard the result must show less than 50% of body burn.
Impacto de pequeñas salpicaduras: Según la cantidad de gotas de metal que el tejido aguanta antes de que la temperatura del calorímetro aumente en 40ºK, el tejido será clasificado como:
  • CLASE 1 > 15 gotas
  • CLASE 2 > 25 gotas

The standard classifies High-Visibility Safety Apparel (HVSA) as Performance Class 1, 2 or 3, depending on the amount of visible background and retroreflective material. These Performance Classes give users a way to specify HVSA that is appropriate for the work environment and hazards. The 2015 edition also establishes three types of garments:
  • Type O (off-road), for non-roadway use, where workers are not exposed to high traffic or temporary control zones. Type O HVSA is Performance Class 1.
  • Type R (roadway), for use where workers are exposed to traffic from public access highway rights-of-way or roadway temporary control zones. Type R HVSA may be Performance Class 2 or 3.
  • Type P (public safety) for emergency and incident responders and law enforcement personnel who are exposed to struck-by hazards in roadway or off-road work environments. These garments provide additional options addressing competing hazards or the need for access to special equipment. Type P HVSA may be Performance Class 2 or 3
A microporus polyurethane layer which is impermeable and acts on the surface tension of water preventing it from filtrations through the micropore. At the same time allows the exit of water vapor molecules (perspiration) since it has a smaller size than the polyurethane microporus.
