Portwest FR94 Coverall: NFPA 2112 Certified Protection Against Flash Fire

The FR94 coverall is a piece of body armor designed under the most rigorous standards of the petrochemical and electrical industries. Made with the high-performance fabric Bizflame 88/12, this garment guarantees exceptional protection against flash fire and electric arc. Its textile engineering combines the softness of cotton with the toughness of nylon, creating a garment that not only saves lives during thermal exposure but also withstands the most severe abrasive conditions.

Why is this equipment vital for operations?

• NFPA 2112 Certification: This coverall has undergone full-scale thermal exposure tests, ensuring that the fabric maintains its structural integrity and minimizes the percentage of body burns in the event of a flash fire.
• Iona Tape Technology: Incorporates flame-resistant reflective tapes on shoulders, arms, and legs, ensuring 360° visibility in industrial environments where personnel identification is critical for accident prevention.
• Reinforced Mechanical Resistance: The 12% nylon integrated into the fiber increases the garment's lifespan against tearing, maintaining a constant protection factor even during heavy use.
