Vestes ignifugées EPI

A flame retardant jacket is a technical garment designed to reduce the spread of flames in the event of a fire or exposure to extreme heat sources. This type of flame retardant PPE protects workers against burns and other thermal risks, and is particularly important in industrial sectors such as metallurgy, refining, welding and electrical maintenance. Unlike ordinary clothing, flame retardant jackets are made from special materials and are technologically prepared to provide certified protection. At RAG Tailors, our thermal protective jackets combine comfort, resistance and safety, and are available with different levels of certification depending on the professional activity carried out.

The main benefits of wearing flame-retardant PPE include protection against burns, reduced risk in the event of contact with direct fire or intense heat, and compliance with occupational safety standards. This type of flame-retardant clothing also offers thermal comfort, resistance to abrasion and greater peace of mind for the worker. In areas such as the metalworking or electrical industries, the use of flame-retardant jackets with appropriate certification can prevent serious accidents and even save lives. At RAG Tailors, we develop professional clothing solutions that combine safety and functionality, promoting safer work environments and better protected professionals.

A flame retardant jacket for industrial use must be made from technical fabrics with permanent flame retardant properties, such as treated cotton or special synthetic fibres. It must also feature reinforced seams and an ergonomic design to allow mobility and comfort during work. Other important features include adjustable cuffs, concealed or protected zips, functional pockets and resistance to wear. Flame retardant jackets with EN ISO 14116 certification are particularly recommended, ensuring compliance with international standards. RAG Tailors offers models adapted to different industrial environments, with the possibility of personalisation by embroidery or screen printing to ensure a professional and corporate image in line with safety requirements.

Proper maintenance of flame retardant jackets is essential to preserve their fire retardant properties. It is recommended to always follow the instructions on the label and avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as these can compromise the effectiveness of the fabrics. Thermal protective clothing should be washed separately to avoid contamination with flammable materials. In addition, regular inspections should be made to detect wear, tears or changes in the fabric. At RAG Tailors, our flame retardant jackets are designed to withstand industrial washing, preserving their durability and certifications over time, when properly cared for.

Although often used interchangeably, there are differences between fire-resistant clothing and flame-retardant clothing. Flame-retardant clothing is designed to delay combustion and prevent fire from spreading, making it ideal for occasional and accidental exposure to flames. Fire-resistant clothing is made from materials that offer continuous protection in environments of intense heat and prolonged exposure. The choice between the two depends on the nature of the activity and the risk involved. RAG Tailors offers different types of thermal protection jackets, always with the appropriate certifications for the sector of use, to ensure that each professional is adequately protected.

A flame retardant jacket must have European certifications that ensure it complies with safety standards. The most relevant include EN ISO 11612 (protection against heat and flame), EN ISO 14116 (limited resistance to flame propagation) and EN 1149-5 (antistatic properties where required). These standards ensure that flame retardant clothing provides an effective barrier against thermal hazards in an industrial environment. At RAG Tailors, all of our PPE jackets are manufactured to the required standards, ensuring protection, durability and confidence for the wearer.
