Security iconCAT 4 thermal defence built for extreme ARC flash environments and switching operations.
Reinforced construction resists heat, sparks and friction in high-risk production areas.
Secure closures, padding and enhanced mobility support technicians working near energised systems.

i-ARC Fibre Layer
A LENZING™ FR, aramid and anti-static blend forming the jacket’s primary thermal barrier.
Purpose-Engineered Benefit
Delivers inherent flame resistance and stabilises ARC protection in high-energy environments.

Two Layers of Non-Woven Meta-Aramid
Dense insulating layers integrated into the multi-layer system.
Purpose-Engineered Benefit
Increase thermal resistance and reduce heat transfer during ARC events.

One Plain Cotton Weave Layer
A breathable natural fibre lining placed internally.
Purpose-Engineered Benefit
Enhances comfort and moisture management during extended wear.

Multi-Layer Structure
A composite of synthetic and natural fibres.
Purpose-Engineered Benefit
Maximises thermal protection by dispersing and delaying heat penetration.

Concealed YKK Brass Zip (Type 5)
A high-strength brass zipper hidden beneath a storm flap.
Purpose-Engineered Benefit
Provides reliable fastening while reducing exposure points during ARC incidents.

Storm Flap
Protective flap covering the zipper area.
Purpose-Engineered Benefit
Shields internal fastenings from heat, sparks and debris

Adjustable Neck with Hook and Loop Closure
Neck tab allowing a customised collar fit.
Purpose-Engineered Benefit
Improves protection and comfort by sealing the upper neckline area.

Right-Hand Side Zip Guard
Reinforced material along the right-hand zip path.
Purpose-Engineered Benefit
Adds thermal protection and prevents heat exposure through closure points.

Extended Collar
Raised collar construction with secure fastening.
Purpose-Engineered Benefit
Provides elevated shielding for the neck and lower face area.

Elasticated Cuffs
Stretch cuffs integrated into the sleeve design.
Purpose-Engineered Benefit
Ensure a secure, comfortable fit and block debris or sparks from entering.

High-Cut Front
Raised front jacket profile designed for protection.
Purpose-Engineered Benefit
Enhances chest and upper-torso shielding in ARC-prone environments.

Padded Diamond-Shaped Underarm Extension
Ergonomic padded section positioned beneath the arm.
Purpose-Engineered Benefit
Improves range of motion and reduces friction during overhead or extended reaching tasks.

Padded Front Jacket
Additional padding incorporated into the front body panel.
Purpose-Engineered Benefit
Increases insulation and protects against radiant heat exposure.

Meta-Aramid FR Thread
Flame-resistant stitching throughout the garment.
Purpose-Engineered Benefit
Maintains seam integrity under extreme heat conditions.

Top-Stitched Stress Seams
Reinforced stitching applied to high-stress areas.
Purpose-Engineered Benefit
Increases durability and extends garment lifespan during frequent use.

Bar-Tacked Stress Points
Extra reinforcement added to key stress zones.
Purpose-Engineered Benefit
Prevents tearing and improves structural reliability.

Inherently Flame-Resistant
FR properties integrated directly into fibre composition.
Purpose-Engineered Benefit
Ensures permanent flame resistance that does not wash out.

Lightweight Construction
Material composition designed to minimise bulk.
Purpose-Engineered Benefit
Reduces fatigue and improves comfort during extended wear.

Evaporative Cooling Capability
Fabric engineered to promote moisture evaporation.
Purpose-Engineered Benefit
Helps regulate temperature and maintain comfort in heat-intensive environments.
