Questions & Answers
Before you place an order or update your crew's kit, here are the questions we hear most from safety officers, procurement leads, and site managers. If yours isn't covered, our support desk can help with the specifics.
Measure chest, waist, and inseam while wearing the base layers you'd use on shift. Flame-resistant gear should fit close without binding, because excess fabric can snag and loose cuffs reduce protection. Each product page lists a size chart with garment measurements, not just body measurements.
The standard sets minimum requirements for background material, reflective tape width and placement, and how the garment performs after washing. A compliant vest must retain its reflective properties over its working life, not just out of the box. We flag the specific clause each product meets.
No. Fabric softeners, bleach, and detergents with petroleum-based additives leave residues that can compromise flame resistance. Use a mild detergent, skip the softener, and air-dry or tumble dry on low. Contaminated FR gear should be replaced rather than rewashed.
Inspect monthly for fading, frayed reflective tape, or cracked backing material. In outdoor roles with heavy sun exposure, most vests need replacement every six to twelve months. Warehouse crews working indoors under artificial light typically get longer service life.
Steel toes handle heavier impacts and are thinner, but they conduct cold and heat and can trigger metal detectors. Composite toes are lighter, non-conductive, and better for cold storage or electrical work, though they add slightly more bulk. Your site's hazard assessment should dictate the choice.
Yes, we supply teams of any size with consistent sizing and same-batch fabric dye lots. For orders above a certain volume, we can hold sizes for a trial fitting session before the full order is placed. Reach out through our contact page and we'll walk through the process.
