Product Overview
The PW3 Modaflame Knit FR Long Sleeve Polo Shirt is a meticulously engineered garment designed for professionals who operate in hazardous environments where safety and mobility are of equal importance. Constructed from an inherently flame-resistant modacrylic fabric, this polo shirt provides a reliable barrier against heat and flame without the heavy, restrictive feel of traditional protective gear. The sleek black finish coupled with segmented reflective tape ensures a professional appearance that meets the rigorous demands of modern safety standards.
Key Features
- Inherently Flame-Resistant Modacrylic Fabric: This lightweight material provides permanent protection that will not wash out, ensuring the wearer remains safe throughout the life of the garment.
- Segmented Reflective Tape: The innovative heat-applied tape is designed to flex and move with the wearer, offering enhanced visibility while maintaining maximum freedom of movement.
- Integrated Placket Loop: A thoughtful design detail that allows for the secure attachment of pens or glasses, keeping essential tools accessible during tasks.
- Long Sleeve Design: Provides comprehensive coverage for the arms, which is vital for protection in environments where skin exposure should be minimised.
- Regular Fit: Designed to provide a comfortable, professional silhouette that allows for layering without compromising on style.
Design & Performance
Performance in high-risk zones requires fabric that can withstand the heat while keeping the wearer comfortable. The modacrylic knit used in this polo shirt is specifically chosen for its ability to balance protection with breathability. Because the fabric is lightweight, it reduces the physical strain on the wearer during long shifts, while the knit construction offers a soft touch against the skin. The segmented tape is a significant performance upgrade over solid reflective bands, as it eliminates the 'stiffness' often found in high-visibility clothing, allowing for a more natural range of motion.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
At MyWorkwear, our Telford-based team has been specialising in garment customisation since 1976. This long-sleeved polo shirt is perfectly suited for both embroidery and print. For a truly professional and long-lasting finish, we recommend embroidery for company logos and staff names, as it stands up exceptionally well to the rigours of industrial work. If your requirement involves larger, high-impact branding, our printing services provide a crisp, vibrant finish that ensures your team is easily identifiable on-site.

This polo shirt is the ideal choice for workers in the petrochemical, utility, and electrical industries where flame-resistant clothing is a mandatory safety requirement.

Practical Advice
This polo shirt is designed with a regular fit, making it versatile for year-round use. During colder periods, the lightweight fabric makes it an excellent base layer under a flame-resistant jacket. We recommend checking our size guide to ensure a comfortable fit that allows for full articulation of the arms and torso during manual tasks.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the integrity of flame-resistant garments is crucial for ensuring continued protection. We recommend a domestic wash at a moderate temperature to ensure the modacrylic fibres remain effective and the reflective tape remains securely bonded.
Avoid the use of chlorine-based bleaches or biological detergents, as these chemicals can damage the inherent flame-resistant properties of the fabric and cause the colours to fade prematurely.
When drying, it is best to air dry or use a low heat setting on a tumble dryer. High heat can affect the longevity of the segmented reflective tape. If ironing is necessary, use a low heat setting and avoid direct contact with the reflective strips or any custom branding to prevent damage.
