Product Overview
The PW3 Modaflame Knit Hi-Vis FR Sweatshirt is a specialized piece of equipment designed for professionals operating in environments where exposure to heat and flame is a constant risk. This garment is not merely a layer of clothing; it is a technical solution that balances the critical requirements of high-visibility safety with inherent flame-resistant protection. The design incorporates a classic round neck and a contrast yellow and black colour scheme, ensuring the wearer remains both protected and conspicuous in hazardous working conditions.
Key Features
- Round neck design: Provides a comfortable and non-restrictive fit, allowing the sweatshirt to be worn easily over base layers or under heavier protective jackets.
- Ribbed collar and cuffs: These elements ensure a secure fit that helps to retain body heat in cooler conditions while preventing the sleeves from interfering with manual tasks.
- High-visibility contrast: The yellow and black design is engineered to provide maximum visibility, which is essential for safety on busy sites or in low-light environments.
- Inherent flame resistance: The protective properties are built into the fabric itself, meaning the safety benefits will not diminish after repeated laundering.
Design & Performance
Constructed from Modaflame Knit fabric, this sweatshirt is engineered to perform in demanding industrial settings. The fabric is substantial and sturdy, providing a reassuring level of protection without being overly restrictive. Unlike treated fabrics, the inherent flame-resistant qualities of this garment offer permanent protection for the life of the sweatshirt. The inclusion of ribbed cuffs and a ribbed collar not only enhances the comfort of the garment but also ensures it maintains its shape and professional appearance throughout long shifts. The contrast black panels are strategically placed in areas prone to soiling, helping the garment look cleaner for longer.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The PW3 Modaflame Sweatshirt is an excellent candidate for customisation, allowing you to align your safety equipment with your corporate identity. For a sophisticated and durable finish, we recommend embroidery. This method is ideal for company logos and individual names, providing a high-quality appearance that stands up well to the rigours of industrial work. If your requirement involves large, bold graphics or safety messaging, print is a highly effective alternative. Our expert team in Telford has been handling workwear customisation since 1976, ensuring that every logo is applied with precision to maintain the integrity of the garment.
Use Cases
This sweatshirt is specifically intended for workers in the utilities, petrochemical, and construction sectors. It is particularly suited for those who require flame-resistant protection alongside high visibility, such as site supervisors, electrical engineers, and maintenance technicians working in proximity to heat sources or moving machinery.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, consider the layers you intend to wear beneath the sweatshirt. A correct fit is essential to ensure that the flame-resistant properties are most effective and that you maintain a full range of motion. This garment works exceptionally well as a mid-layer in winter or as a primary outer layer during the transitional seasons.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the performance of your flame-resistant and high-visibility garments is vital for continued safety on the job. Following the correct care procedures ensures that the protective fibres and reflective elements remain functional for the duration of the garment's life.
Avoid the use of industrial bleaching agents during the wash cycle. Bleach can compromise the chemical structure of the flame-resistant fibres and will significantly dull the high-visibility yellow pigment, making the garment less effective and potentially non-compliant with safety standards.
When drying the sweatshirt, it is advisable to avoid excessive heat. Over-drying at high temperatures can lead to shrinkage and may affect the elasticity of the ribbed cuffs and collar, which could alter the fit and comfort of the garment. Consistency in care is the best way to protect your investment and your safety.
