Product Overview
The Portwest Anti-Static ESD Fleece is a specialised garment designed for professionals working in environments where electrostatic discharge poses a risk to sensitive equipment or components. Static shocks are rarely a welcome addition to the working day, and this fleece ensures they remain a concern of the past by incorporating conductive fibres into the fabric. Combining technical safety with the comfort of a mid-weight fleece, it offers a practical solution for those who require warmth without compromising the safety protocols of a controlled environment.
Key Features
- ESD Protection: Designed to prevent the build-up of static electricity, protecting both the wearer and sensitive electronic components from potential damage.
- Unisex Fit: The versatile cut ensures a professional appearance for all team members, making it an efficient choice for uniform procurement.
- Full-Zip Front: Provides the wearer with easy temperature regulation and convenience when layering over other workwear.
- Extensive Size Range: Available from XS to 4XL, ensuring that every member of your workforce can be accommodated with a comfortable and secure fit.
Design & Performance
Constructed from a high-quality polyester blend, this fleece offers a mid-weight feel that provides insulation without unnecessary bulk. The fabric is engineered to be soft to the touch, yet the inclusion of anti-static properties means it performs as a piece of technical safety equipment rather than just a standard layer of clothing. The material is chosen for its ability to withstand the rigours of a busy laboratory or assembly line, ensuring that the garment maintains its shape and protective qualities over time.
Customisation: Embroidery Only
This item is available for embroidery customisation only. Embroidery is the superior choice for fleece fabrics as the dense, textured pile provides an excellent foundation for high-quality stitching, allowing your company logo to sit prominently and clearly. Unlike printing methods which can struggle with the surface of a fleece, embroidery offers a durable and premium finish that will last the life of the garment. Our in-house embroidery team, established in 1976, uses decades of expertise to ensure every stitch meets our exacting standards for professional longevity.
Use Cases
This fleece is specifically engineered for use in electronics manufacturing, laboratories, and cleanroom environments where static control is mandatory. It is also an excellent choice for data centre technicians or any professional handling sensitive hardware who requires a warm, comfortable layer that adheres to strict safety requirements.

Practical Advice
With a size range spanning from XS to 4XL, we recommend reviewing your team's requirements to ensure the best fit. This fleece is designed to be worn over standard work shirts or base layers; however, if you intend to wear multiple thick layers underneath, you may wish to consider the next size up to maintain full range of movement.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the specialised anti-static properties of this garment is vital for continued protection in ESD-sensitive environments. Following the correct care procedure ensures that the conductive fibres within the polyester blend remain effective for the duration of the product's life.
We recommend adhering strictly to the instructions found on the internal care label. Incorrect laundering, such as the use of prohibited chemicals or excessive heat, can degrade the anti-static performance, potentially rendering the garment unsuitable for use in controlled areas.
