Tested to EN 1149-5 and EN 61340-5-1 

The Portwest AS26 Women's Work Fleece is tested to EN 1149-5 and EN 61340-5-1. 

• EN 1149-5: This standard pertains to protective clothing with electrostatic properties. It specifies requirements for materials and design to minimise the risk of electrostatic discharge (ESD) in environments where there's a potential for explosion due to electrostatic charges. The Portwest AS26 has therefore been designed and manufactured to reduce the risk of static electricity buildup, which is ideal for certain work environments to prevent sparks that might ignite flammable substances
• EN 61340-5-1: This standard is also related to electrostatic discharge control but focuses specifically on the protection of electronic devices from electrostatic phenomena. It sets requirements for materials and design to prevent damage to sensitive electronic components caused by electrostatic discharge. The Portwest AS26 therefore minimises risk of static electricity buildup, thereby reducing the likelihood of damaging electronic equipment when worn by workers in environments where such protection is necessary

In summary, both standards aim to ensure that the work fleece meets specific criteria for reducing the risk of electrostatic discharge in different contexts: one related to general safety in potentially explosive environments and the other related to protection of electronic devices.

What Is the Portwest Fleece Made of?

The shell fabric of the Portwest AS26 Jacket is made up of 98% polyester and 2% carbon fibre.
