Description
Portwest FR85 Bizflame FR Anti-Static Hi Vis Vest
The Portwest FR85 Bizflame Hi Vis FR Long Sleeve Vest is a specialist lightweight visibility garment designed for hazardous working environments where flame-resistant, anti-static and high-visibility clothing requirements overlap.
Made from Bizflame Vest HV fabric containing 98% polyester and 2% carbon fibre, the FR85 combines Class 3 high visibility with limited flame-spread and anti-static performance. Its long sleeves provide greater fluorescent material coverage than a conventional sleeveless waistcoat while keeping the garment lightweight and easy to wear.
Flame Resistant & Anti-Static Hi Vis Vest
The FR85 is designed for industrial and contractor environments where a standard hi vis vest is not sufficient and specialist PPE forms part of the required clothing system.
- EN ISO 14116 Index 1 limited flame-spread performance
- EN 1149-5 anti-static properties
- EN ISO 20471 Class 3 high visibility
- Premium sew-on flame-resistant reflective tape
- Long sleeve construction for increased visibility coverage
- Hook-and-loop front fastening
- Metal-detector friendly, non-magnetic construction
- Nickel and ferrous free
- Lightweight and comfortable
- Generous fit for wearing over protective workwear
Class 3 Long Sleeve Hi Vis for Hazardous Environments
The long sleeve construction helps the FR85 achieve EN ISO 20471 Class 3, making it suitable for workplaces where a higher visibility classification is specified.
Because the FR85 is rated to EN ISO 14116 Index 1, Portwest specifies that it must be worn over an Index 2 or Index 3 garment where full flame-resistant protection is required.
