Flame Retardant / Antistatic Sweaters

Flame retardant and anti-static sweaters provide extra safety when you have to deal with heat, flames and sparks in your working environment. Because the material from which these sweaters are made is inherently flame-retardant or has been treated with a fire-retardant coating, this work clothing prevents a flame from burning directly to your skin when touched. Unishore Bedrijfskleding sells various flame-retardant sweaters from manufacturers known for their good quality, such as Portwest, Tricorp, Helly Hansen and Blåkläder.

These flame-retardant, anti-static sweaters meet the most important EN standards. This concerns the following standards:

  • EN ISO 11612 for protection against heat and flame
  • EN 1149 for antistatic work clothing
  • Multinorm FR/AS sweaters can also meet the standards EN 20471 (high visibility), EN ISO 11611 (welding clothing) and IEC 61482 (protection against the thermal hazards of electric arcs)
Flame Retardant / Antistatic Sweaters

The best protection against heat, flames and sparks

When you work with fire, there is a chance that you will come into contact with a flame at some point. Static discharge can also cause a fire. If you wear fire-retardant work clothing, you can be assured that the flame will not burn through the clothing. Instead, the fabric will ash or stiffen. It is important to find work clothing with the correct standards for your position. For offshore work, work clothing with the EN ISO 11612 standard is sufficient, but if you are a welder, you are best protected against sparks by clothing with the EN ISO 11611 standard.

An abbreviation that is often used to indicate this type of fire-resistant clothing is “FR/AS”. This stands for “flame retardant/anti-static”; the English translation of flame retardant and antistatic. There is no difference in terms of fire-retardant effect between a sweater, work jacket, overalls or work trousers made of flame-retardant fabrics or with a coating. So, you can go for either option for your safety. Just keep in mind that a coating is often subject to wear and it is almost impossible to determine with the naked eye whether the coating is still in good condition.
