New garments are half the weight and more durable than existing products
ProGARM, the UK’s leading Arc Flash protection specialists, has announced an innovative new range with waterproof trousers, jackets and coveralls set for launch.
The new products are designed with the purpose of providing comfort and durability to the wearer, utilising an advanced composition technique that has been found to last longer than its previous iteration.
All of the new products meet EN regulations and have been tested to 100,000 abrasion cycles – providing an ideal alternative to ProGARM’s existing range, with the key differences being that the new garments weigh half as much, have a seamless shoulder to offer more comfort when in a harness whilst crucially, still providing the same levels of protection against an Arc Flash.
Lightweight, waterproof and removable hoods mean these new products combine durability with comfort, ensuring workers can do their job with maximum protection and efficiency.
Managing Director of ProGARM, Tony Arnett said of the new products, “This new range shows just how committed ProGARM is to giving workers the best protection against Arc Flashes, whilst providing the ultimate comfort in fit.
“We are constantly innovating and trying to produce quality PPE that gives workers at risk the best possible protection as well as allowing them to do their jobs without their garments hindering movements.”
These new garments are the latest addition in ProGARM’s growing collection of PPE and will be used in many different industries that are at risk such as power generation, petrochemical, rail and utilities to prevent serious harm or death. The coverall is the lightest ever produced and features inherent VXS+ fabric, providing the same strength, tear and tensile as PrroGARM’s 6458.
