Vestes isolantes ignifugées EPI

Flame retardant insulated jackets are personal protective clothing (PPE) designed to protect the wearer from the risk of exposure to heat, flames and incandescent particles. Made from special technical materials, such as flame retardant fibres, these jackets inhibit the spread of fire and provide thermal insulation. Unlike conventional jackets, they do not melt or catch fire easily, providing an essential layer of safety in hazardous environments. RAG Tailors offers models with different levels of protection, adapted to the needs of different industries, ensuring safety and comfort in high-risk situations.

Flame retardant PPE jackets must comply with specific European standards, notably EN ISO 11612, which sets out the minimum thermal performance requirements for heat and flame resistant clothing. This standard assesses resistance to radiant, convective and contact heat, as well as limited flame propagation. Other relevant standards include EN ISO 1149 (electrostatic protection) and EN ISO 14116 (protection against limited heat). At RAG Tailors, all protective jackets are manufactured to these certifications, ensuring legal compliance and a high standard of safety for the user.

A good flame-retardant PPE jacket should combine thermal resistance, durability and ergonomic comfort. Important features include seams reinforced with flame-retardant threads, covered zips to prevent direct heat, sleeves with elastic or adjustable cuffs and efficient internal insulation. In addition, the materials must maintain their properties even after several washes. RAG Tailors offers jackets with a functional design, high-tech materials and technical finishes that guarantee thermal protection in demanding industrial environments. The models available are suitable for a wide range of activities, from electrical services to environments with a risk of explosion.

To ensure the durability and effectiveness of your fire retardant jackets, it is essential to follow the manufacturer’s washing instructions. It is recommended to wash with neutral detergents, avoiding fabric softeners or abrasive products, which can compromise the retardant properties of the fabric. Jackets should be dried naturally or at a low temperature, as indicated on the label. Regular inspections should be carried out to detect wear, tears or damage that may affect protection. At RAG Tailors, our PPE jackets are designed to withstand intensive use, but their longevity also depends on proper maintenance.

Although they may look similar, there are important technical differences. Flame retardant clothing is made from chemically treated fabrics or intrinsically flame retardant fibres, which prevent the spread of flames. Fire resistant clothing can provide protection against heat and flames for a limited period of time, but does not always prevent the spread of fire. For high-risk environments, such as arc flash zones or flammable atmospheres, it is best to opt for flame retardant insulated jackets certified to EN ISO 11612. RAG Tailors uses state-of-the-art materials that combine fire resistance with effective thermal insulation for complete and long-lasting protection.

The most relevant certifications for flame retardant jackets include EN ISO 11612, which certifies protection against heat and short-lived flames. For work involving electrical hazards, EN 61482 (protection against electric arc) may also be required. EN ISO 1149 guarantees antistatic properties, which is particularly important in environments with a risk of explosion. RAG Tailors ensures that all jackets with flame retardant technology strictly comply with these standards, providing complete peace of mind to those who wear them. Certifications must be clearly indicated on the product label and in the technical documents supplied with each garment.
