If you work in a hazardous environment, there are a large number of manufacturers that make high quality, tough, and durable clothing with flame resistance that meet the European standards for safety workwear.

Whether you are a welder, work on an oil rig, with petrochemicals or in transportation, this work clothing is essential kit for keeping you safe during the day.

As well as being flame retardant or resistant, some workwear might also feature all manner of other elements dedicated to the safety of the wearer and their colleagues. You might find hi vis fluorescent colours and reflective tape. They could be antistatic and arc resistant too.

You can layer flame resistance with other such items underneath in order to better protect yourself on site. They are designed to slow down the movement of the flame once it hits the specially treated garment and often layering increases this slow down. However, be careful to choose the right layering options for you to avoid the risk of overheating in warm conditions.
