Yes, all sweaters in this collection are antistatic according to EN 1149-5 as well as flame-resistant. This means you can wear them in an ATEX zone, provided the rest of your clothing and your shoes are also antistatic. The standards per model are listed on the product page.

Yes, the sweaters are themselves tested according to EN ISO 11612 and may be worn as an outer layer, for example in a warm workshop. In case of welding spatter, rain or cold, a flame-resistant jacket over it is advisable. In an ATEX zone, make sure you do not take the sweater off there.

The Modaflame sweaters have flame-resistant properties that are built into the fibre or the fabric and do not simply wash out, provided you follow the label. Do not use fabric softener or bleach. With hi-vis models, colour and reflectivity can wear off, so check these regularly.
