When workplace safety meets superior comfort and durability, the FR26 Bizflame Plus Trouser in Orange stands out as the ultimate choice for professionals in high-risk environments. As an Authorized Portwest Distributor, TECHACS Safety Solutions delivers industry-leading flame resistant workwear that doesn’t compromise on protection or performance.
Uncompromising Protection for Demanding Industries
The FR26 Bizflame Plus Trouser is engineered for workers in offshore operations, welding, petrochemical plants, and other hazardous environments where flame resistance isn’t optional—it’s essential. This trouser combines Portwest’s innovative Bizflame Work fabric technology with robust construction features that ensure all-day protection and comfort.
Multi-Standard Certified Safety
Safety certifications matter, and the FR26 delivers comprehensive protection backed by rigorous testing:
- EN ISO 11611 Class 2 (A1+A2): Class 2 welding protection for high-level spatter and radiant heat exposure
- EN ISO 11612 (A1+A2, B1, C1, E2, F1): Protection against heat and flame, including radiant, convective, and contact heat
- IEC 61482-2 and IEC 61482-1-2 Class 1/APC 1: Arc flash protection for electrical hazards
- ASTM F1959/F1959M-12: ATPV rating of 13.6 Cal/CM² (HAF=82%)
- EN 1149-5: Antistatic properties to prevent static charge accumulation
- CE-CAT III: Highest category of personal protective equipment certification
These certifications aren’t just numbers—they represent guaranteed protection against molten metal splash, arc flash incidents, and thermal hazards that workers face daily.
Advanced Bizflame Work Fabric Technology
At the heart of the FR26’s exceptional performance is the proprietary Bizflame Work fabric: a precisely engineered blend of 99% cotton and 1% carbon fiber, weighing 350g (10oz). This innovative composition provides:
- Guaranteed flame resistance for the life of the garment—protection that won’t wash out or diminish over time
- 50+ UPF rated fabric blocking 98% of harmful UV rays during outdoor work
- Inherent antistatic properties for safe operation in explosive atmospheres
- Breathable comfort that keeps workers cool during extended shifts
- Natural fiber feel that reduces heat stress compared to synthetic alternatives
The carbon fiber integration enhances the fabric’s electrical dissipation properties while maintaining the comfort and durability that cotton provides.
Durability Built Into Every Seam
TECHACS Safety Solutions understands that flame resistant workwear represents a significant investment. The FR26 Bizflame Plus Trouser is constructed to deliver exceptional value through:
Triple-Stitched Reinforcement
Every seam features triple stitching for maximum strength at stress points, significantly extending garment life even in demanding applications.
Industrial-Grade Hardware
- Durable brass zipper on the front fly resists corrosion and maintains smooth operation through countless cycles
- Flame resistant industrial wash tape sewn on for visibility and durability
- Hook and loop adjustable hems allow precise fit customization at the leg openings
High Visibility Safety Features
Double-stitched reflective tape and high visibility strips on the legs ensure workers remain visible in low-light conditions, adding an extra layer of safety to already comprehensive protection.
Functional Design for Working Professionals
The FR26 doesn’t just protect—it performs. Thoughtful design features include:
Intelligent Storage Solutions
Seven strategically placed pockets provide organized storage without bulk:
- Front pockets for frequently accessed items
- Dedicated ruler pocket for measuring tools
- Back pocket for documents or personal items
