Product Overview
The Modaflame Work Hi-Vis Multi-Norm Contrast FR Trousers are an essential piece of equipment for professionals operating in environments where multiple industrial hazards are a constant reality. These trousers are engineered to provide comprehensive protection while ensuring visibility in low-light conditions. The intelligent design incorporates a specific blend of modacrylic and cotton, providing inherent flame resistance that does not wash out, combined with carbon fibre for anti-static properties. The contrast colour scheme of Yellow and Navy ensures a professional appearance while strategically placing darker fabric in areas prone to soiling.
Key Features
- Triple-Stitched Seams: This construction method provides exceptional durability, ensuring the garment can withstand the physical rigours of industrial work without failing at the stress points.
- Two-Tier Knee Pad Pockets: These allow for the precise positioning of knee protection, which is vital for comfort and safety when working on hard surfaces for extended periods.
- Adjustable Leg Length: A practical design choice that ensures the trousers can be tailored to the individual wearer, providing a better fit and preventing tripping hazards.
- Elasticated Back Waist: This feature provides significant freedom of movement and ensures the trousers remain secure and comfortable throughout a long shift.
Design & Performance
Constructed from a medium-weight Modaflame fabric, these trousers offer a superior balance between protection and comfort. The fabric composition of 60% Modacrylic and 39% Cotton provides a soft, breathable feel against the skin, while the 1% Carbon Fibre is woven into the material to dissipate static electricity. This blend is specifically designed to meet various safety standards, offering protection against heat, flame, and chemical splashes. The sturdy nature of the fabric ensures it maintains its structural integrity even after repeated industrial laundering.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
At MyWorkwear, we understand that safety garments are also a reflection of your business identity. These trousers are well-suited for both print and embroidery, handled by our expert in-house team in Telford. Embroidery is particularly recommended for company logos or staff names, as it provides a permanent, professional finish that stands up well to the heavy-duty use these trousers are designed for. For larger branding or safety messaging, high-quality printing offers a bold and clear result that ensures your team is easily identifiable on-site.
Use Cases
These trousers are specifically designed for workers in the petrochemical, utility, and rail industries, or any environment where flame resistance, anti-static properties, and high visibility are mandatory. They are also highly effective for maintenance engineers and technicians who require multi-norm protection while working in varied industrial settings.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, consider the layering you may require in colder environments. The elasticated waist provides some flexibility, but for those who spend a great deal of time kneeling, ensuring the correct leg length is vital so that the knee pad pockets sit at the correct anatomical height. We recommend pairing these with other FR-rated base layers to maintain the integrity of your protective clothing system.
Caring for your product
To maintain the high-performance safety characteristics of these trousers, it is essential to follow the care instructions precisely. Maintaining the cleanliness of high-visibility and flame-resistant garments is not just about appearance; it is a matter of safety performance.
We recommend a domestic wash at a maximum temperature of 60°C. Using a normal process ensures that oils and industrial contaminants are effectively removed without damaging the inherent flame-resistant fibres of the Modaflame fabric.
Do not use bleach when laundering this garment. Bleaching agents can severely compromise the chemical structure of the fabric and may degrade the reflective tapes, rendering the safety features ineffective.
The trousers may be tumble dried on a low setting. Excessive heat in the drying process can cause shrinkage and may impact the longevity of the carbon fibres responsible for anti-static protection.
If ironing is required, use a maximum sole-plate temperature of 150°C. This ensures the fabric remains smooth and professional without scorching the synthetic modacrylic components.
Do not dry clean this garment. The chemicals used in the dry-cleaning process are often incompatible with flame-resistant finishes and high-visibility coatings, which could lead to a loss of protective performance.
