Design & Performance
The performance of this polo is rooted in its Modaflame Knit fabric, a high-performance blend of 60% Modacrylic, 39% Cotton, and 1% Carbon Fibre. This specific composition provides inherent flame resistance that is built into the fibre itself, ensuring the protection remains effective throughout the life of the garment. The cotton component ensures the fabric is breathable and soft against the skin, while the carbon fibre provides vital anti-static properties. The result is a medium-weight fabric that feels substantial and durable, capable of withstanding the rigours of professional use while keeping the wearer comfortable.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This garment is perfectly suited for both print and embroidery, allowing you to maintain a professional brand image while adhering to safety standards. For a more formal and durable finish, embroidery is the preferred choice for company logos and individual names on the chest. If your branding requires larger, more striking visuals, our high-quality printing process is ideal. All customisation is handled by our expert in-house team in Telford, who have been providing specialist workwear solutions since 1976, ensuring your logo is applied with the precision and care it deserves.
Use Cases
This polo shirt is designed for workers in the utilities, electrical engineering, and petrochemical industries where flame-resistant and anti-static clothing is essential. Its professional styling also makes it a favourite for site managers, inspectors, and engineers who need to move between the office and hazardous environments while maintaining a consistent and professional appearance.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, bear in mind that the ribbed cuffs are designed to sit snugly at the wrist, which is particularly useful when layering this polo under a heavier protective jacket. If you frequently wear base layers for additional warmth, you may wish to consider this when confirming your final size to ensure a comfortable range of movement during manual tasks.
Caring for your product
To ensure this garment continues to provide the necessary protection, we recommend a domestic wash at a maximum temperature of 40°C. This temperature effectively cleans the fabric without damaging the Modacrylic and Cotton blend.
Avoid the use of bleach, as these harsh chemicals can degrade the flame-resistant properties and cause the yellow colour to fade, reducing visibility. The garment should not be tumble dried; instead, line drying is recommended to prevent shrinkage and maintain the original fit.
If ironing is required, use a maximum temperature of 110°C, as excessive heat can damage the technical fibres. Furthermore, do not dry clean this garment, as the solvents used in professional dry cleaning can be detrimental to the fabric's protective characteristics.
