Description
The Portwest flame-resistant trousers, model MV46, are high-quality multi-norm work trousers specifically designed for professionals in high-risk industrial environments. These trousers offer an excellent combination of safety, visibility, and comfort during heavy-duty work. Thanks to the advanced Modaflame fabric, you are optimally protected against various workplace hazards, while the striking hi-vis colors and reflective strips ensure you always remain highly visible to your colleagues.
For which specific work environments are these flame-resistant Portwest trousers suitable?
These multi-norm work trousers are extremely suitable for use in ATEX environments and sectors involving welding work, chemical splashes, or electric arcs. Thanks to their certification according to EN ISO 11611 Class 1, the trousers offer protection during light welding techniques.
Furthermore, the garment meets the EN 13034 Type 6 standard for liquid chemicals and the EN 1149-5 standard for antistatic properties, which is crucial in explosion-hazard zones.
What do the heat-resistant standards of these flame-resistant trousers mean in practice?
The trousers comply with the strict EN ISO 11612 standard, meaning the wearer is protected against radiant heat, convective heat, and contact heat. The letters A1, A2, B2, C1, and F1 indicate the specific performance classes for these heat sources.
The flame-resistant properties are inherent to the fiber itself. This means the protection does not wash out, ensuring the trousers retain their protective functionality even after many washes.
