Product Overview
The PW3 Modaflame Knit Hi-Vis FR Full Zip Sweatshirt is a highly specialised piece of protective equipment designed for professionals operating in environments where heat and flame hazards are a constant risk. Engineered with safety and performance at its core, this sweatshirt provides a critical layer of flame resistance while ensuring high-visibility compliance. It is a well-engineered garment that balances the rigorous demands of industrial safety with the practical requirements of everyday comfort.
Key Features
- Centre front zip: This durable zip closure allows for rapid donning and doffing, while also providing the wearer with the ability to regulate body temperature during physically demanding tasks.
- Ribbed cuffs: The inclusion of ribbed cuffs ensures a secure fit at the wrists, preventing the sleeves from catching on machinery and helping to maintain the garment's thermal integrity.
- Zipped front pockets: These pockets offer secure storage for essential items or small tools, ensuring that your equipment remains on your person and protected from falling out during movement.
Design & Performance
The garment is constructed from Modaflame knit, a technical fabric renowned for its inherent flame-resistant properties. Unlike treated fabrics, the protection here is built into the fibres, meaning it will not wash out over time. The fabric is substantial and sturdy, providing a reassuring weight that stands up to the pressures of a busy worksite. The design features high-visibility yellow to ensure the wearer is seen in low-light conditions, with contrast black panelling placed strategically in high-wear areas to help manage the appearance of dirt and prolong the life of the sweatshirt.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This sweatshirt is an excellent candidate for both print and embroidery, allowing you to maintain a professional appearance without compromising safety. Embroidery is the superior choice for a traditional finish, particularly for company logos or staff names on the chest, providing a durable and high-quality result. For larger, more impactful designs, our technical print process offers a crisp and vibrant alternative. All customisation is performed by our expert in-house team in Telford, who have been perfecting their craft since 1976, ensuring that your branding is applied with precision and care.
Use Cases
This garment is specifically intended for workers in sectors such as utilities, rail, and manufacturing, where there is a tangible risk of exposure to heat or fire. It is also well-suited for any professional requiring high-visibility workwear that offers more protection than a standard polyester sweatshirt.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, consider that this is a medium-weight garment designed for active movement. It functions effectively as a standalone outer layer in milder weather or as a substantial mid-layer under a waterproof jacket when the temperature drops. Ensuring a correct fit is vital for both comfort and the effectiveness of the flame-resistant coverage.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the integrity of the Modaflame fabric and your custom branding requires careful adherence to standard care procedures. Proper cleaning ensures that the high-visibility pigments remain bright and the protective fibres remain effective.
It is important to avoid using bleach or any cleaning agents containing chlorine, as these chemicals can severely damage the flame-resistant properties and degrade the fabric. Using such substances will also lead to the premature fading of your embroidered or printed logos.
We recommend a controlled domestic wash and suggest air drying the garment. Excessive heat from tumble drying can cause minor shrinkage and may negatively impact the longevity of any printed customisation applied to the sweatshirt.
