Product Overview
The Portwest Modaflame Knit HVO FR Sweatshirt is a specialised garment engineered for professionals who operate in environments where flame resistance and high visibility are non-negotiable. This sweatshirt provides a vital layer of protection, bridging the gap between mandatory safety compliance and the everyday comfort required for long shifts on a demanding site.
Key Features
- The flame-resistant properties are inherent to the fabric fibres, ensuring your safety remains consistent over time and does not diminish with repeated laundering.
- High-visibility orange fabric ensures you remain conspicuous in low-light or high-traffic areas, a critical feature for reducing risk in hazardous zones.
- Constructed from a polycotton blend, the garment offers the natural breathability of cotton paired with the hard-wearing resilience of synthetic materials.
- The unisex fit is designed to accommodate all team members comfortably, maintaining a unified and professional appearance across your workforce.
Design & Performance
Crafted from a medium-weight polycotton fabric, this sweatshirt feels substantial and sturdy without being overly restrictive. The knit construction provides a soft touch against the skin, making it a comfortable alternative to more rigid safety wear. Because the flame-resistant qualities are built directly into the material, the garment maintains its protective integrity throughout its lifespan. It is a well-engineered piece that balances the need for a professional appearance with the robust performance required in industrial settings.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This item is available with both print and embroidery customisation. Embroidery delivers a textured, premium appearance — ideal for logos and names — and stands up to repeated washing without fading. Print is better suited to large, bold designs and a broader colour range. Our in-house team (established 1976) handles all customisation in Telford, ensuring your branding is applied with the precision it deserves.
Use Cases
This sweatshirt is an essential choice for those working in the rail, utility, and construction sectors, or any environment where flame-resistant and high-visibility clothing is a legal or safety requirement. It is particularly effective for outdoor workers who need to be easily identified by vehicle operators or colleagues in variable lighting conditions.

Caring for your product
To ensure this garment continues to provide the necessary protection and visibility, it is vital to maintain the fabric's integrity.
