Portwest C813 Liverpool Zipper Coverall Red: High-Visibility Professional Workwear
When it comes to industrial workwear that combines durability, functionality, and high visibility, the Portwest C813 Liverpool Zipper Coverall Red stands out as a premier choice for workers across multiple industries. As an authorized Portwest distributor, TECHACS Safety Solutions offers this exceptional coverall that has become a trusted solution for professionals who demand reliable protection, instant recognition, and comfort throughout their workday.
Understanding the Portwest C813 Liverpool Zipper Coverall in Red
The Portwest C813 Liverpool Zipper Coverall in red represents the pinnacle of workwear engineering, combining practical design elements with high-performance materials and enhanced visibility. This distinctive red coverall is manufactured using premium Kingsmill polycotton fabric—a carefully balanced blend of 65% polyester and 35% cotton weighing 7oz (245g)—that delivers exceptional durability while maintaining wearer comfort throughout extended shifts.
For businesses and individuals seeking comprehensive body protection with immediate visual identification and enhanced safety presence, this coverall offers an unmatched combination of features. The pre-shrunk fabric ensures consistent sizing and maintains its vibrant appearance even after multiple wash cycles, making it an economical long-term investment for any safety-conscious organization. The red color provides instant recognition for emergency response teams, maintenance personnel, specific work crews, or any application requiring rapid visual identification in complex work environments.
Key Features That Set the C813 Apart
Superior Fabric Construction
The heart of the Portwest C813’s performance lies in its Kingsmill polycotton construction. This fabric blend isn’t arbitrary—it’s specifically engineered to provide the tensile strength of polyester while retaining the breathability and comfort of cotton. The pre-shrunk treatment ensures dimensional stability, meaning your coverall maintains its fit and professional appearance wash after wash. This attention to fabric quality directly translates to extended garment life and reduced replacement costs for businesses.
The red colorway offers distinct advantages for safety-critical applications. The vibrant, eye-catching hue ensures workers are immediately visible in busy industrial environments, construction sites, emergency response scenarios, and manufacturing facilities. Red’s high contrast against most work environments makes it the ideal choice for roles requiring instant identification.
Comprehensive Storage Solutions
Understanding that workers need quick access to tools and equipment, Portwest designed the C813 with an impressive 8-pocket configuration. These strategically placed pockets include:
- Zipped chest pockets for securing valuable items like phones, wallets, or small tools
- Rule pocket specifically designed for measuring tools
- Pen pocket for easy access to writing instruments
- Back pocket for additional storage capacity
- Quick-access pass-through pockets allowing access to clothing underneath
- Side access openings for reaching items in trouser pockets
This extensive pocket system eliminates the need for additional tool belts or bags, streamlining your work process and keeping essential items within immediate reach.
Enhanced Mobility and Comfort
The action back design is a critical feature often overlooked in standard coveralls. This tailored construction provides extra freedom of movement across the shoulders and back, essential for workers who frequently reach overhead, bend, or perform repetitive motions. Unlike rigid coveralls that restrict movement, the C813 moves with your body, reducing fatigue and improving workplace efficiency.
Two-Way Zipper Innovation
The two-way zipper system offers unprecedented versatility. This feature allows wearers to unzip from either the top or bottom, providing:
- Quick ventilation adjustments for temperature regulation
- Easy bathroom access without complete removal
- Flexibility when sitting or operating machinery
- Fast donning and doffing for emergency situations
Professional Communication Features
Modern workplaces demand constant communication. The C813 includes mic tabs specifically designed for easy radio attachment, along with a dedicated hammer and radio loop. These purpose-built features ensure communication devices remain secure and accessible throughout the workday—particularly crucial for emergency response and maintenance teams who rely on constant communication.
UV Protection for Outdoor Work
With a 40+ UPF rating, the Liverpool Zipper Coverall blocks 98% of harmful UV rays, providing essential protection for workers in outdoor environments or facilities with significant natural light exposure. This sun protection feature helps reduce long-term skin damage risks while maintaining all-day comfort.
Compliance and Durability Standards
Industrial workwear must meet rigorous standards, and the Portwest C813 exceeds expectations. The coverall is machine washable at 60°C, meeting industrial laundering requirements while maintaining structural integrity and color vibrancy. This high-temperature wash capability is crucial for industries requiring strict hygiene protocols or regular contamination removal.
The durable polycotton construction ensures the coverall withstands the rigors of daily industrial use, from mechanical work and manufacturing to emergency response and facility maintenance. Portwest’s commitment to quality means each garment undergoes extensive testing to ensure it meets the demanding requirements of professional environments.
Size Inclusivity and Availability
Understanding that workers come in all sizes, Portwest manufactures the C813 Liverpool Zipper Coverall in an extensive size range from XS to 6XL. This inclusive sizing ensures proper fit for all team members, which is essential for both safety and comfort. A properly fitted coverall reduces snag hazards, improves mobility, and maintains the visibility and professional appearance your business demands.

Applications Across Industries
The versatility of the Portwest C813 red coverall makes it particularly suitable for visibility-critical professional environments:
Emergency Response and Fire Services: Red is the universal color for emergency services. The C813 provides instant recognition for first responders, emergency maintenance teams, and safety personnel who must be immediately identifiable in crisis situations.
Industrial Maintenance Teams: In large manufacturing facilities or multi-tenant industrial complexes, red coveralls allow instant identification of maintenance personnel, ensuring they’re easily located when urgent repairs are needed.
Manufacturing and Production: Designate specific crews or shifts with red coveralls for clear visual management. Supervisors can quickly identify team members across production floors, improving coordination and safety oversight.
Electrical and Utilities: While not high-visibility PPE, red coveralls provide enhanced visibility for electrical maintenance crews, utility workers, and technical personnel working in complex environments with multiple contractors.
Oil and Gas Operations: Red coveralls help distinguish specific crews—such as safety teams, well service personnel, or emergency response crews—in busy drilling sites and refineries where multiple companies work simultaneously.
Automotive Racing and Motorsports: Red is traditional in motorsports environments for pit crews, mechanics, and technical staff, providing immediate identification while withstanding the demanding conditions of racing operations.
Quality Control and Safety Teams: Distinguish safety inspectors, quality control personnel, or compliance officers with red coveralls, making them immediately identifiable to workforce members who may need their assistance.
Warehouse Color-Coding Systems: Implement color-coded identification systems where red designates specific roles, departments, or clearance levels, improving operational efficiency and access control.
The Red Advantage
The red colorway offers distinct operational benefits:
Instant Visual Identification: Red is one of the most visible colors to the human eye, ensuring workers are immediately spotted in complex environments, crowded facilities, or emergency situations.
Team Differentiation: Easily distinguish specific crews, departments, or roles using red coveralls within color-coded uniform systems, improving coordination and operational efficiency.
Emergency Recognition: Red’s universal association with emergency services makes it ideal for safety teams, first responders, and personnel who must be quickly identified during incidents.
Psychological Impact: Red commands attention and conveys urgency, authority, and importance—valuable attributes for safety personnel, supervisors, and emergency responders.
Enhanced Safety Presence: In environments with multiple contractors or large workforces, red coveralls ensure your team maintains high visibility without requiring full high-visibility PPE in all situations.
Brand and Team Identity: Create strong team identity and pride with distinctive red workwear that sets your crew apart and reinforces company or department culture.
Maintenance and Care for Longevity
Maximizing the lifespan of your Portwest C813 red coverall requires proper maintenance. The coverall’s machine washable design (up to 60°C) simplifies care while ensuring thorough cleaning. For best results:
- Close all zippers before washing to prevent fabric damage
- Wash with similar colors to maintain the vibrant red appearance
- Use color-safe detergents to preserve the bright, eye-catching hue
- Air dry when possible to extend fabric life and preserve color intensity, though tumble drying is acceptable
- Inspect zippers and stitching regularly to address minor issues before they become major problems
- For red maintenance, avoid chlorine bleach which causes rapid fading; use oxygen-based alternatives when deep cleaning is needed
- Consider rotating multiple coveralls to reduce individual wear and extend replacement cycles
Making the Investment Decision
While initial cost is always a consideration, the Portwest C813 Liverpool Zipper Coverall represents exceptional value when evaluated on a cost-per-wear basis. The combination of durable construction, pre-shrunk fabric, and high-quality components means fewer replacements and lower long-term costs. For businesses, this translates to reduced uniform budgets and less downtime from garment failures.
The high-visibility nature of red coveralls provides an additional safety value that’s difficult to quantify but critically important. Enhanced worker visibility can prevent accidents, improve coordination, and streamline operations—benefits that far exceed the modest investment in quality workwear. For emergency response teams and safety personnel, the instant recognition red provides could prove invaluable during critical incidents.
