Portwest PW3 Modaflame Knit HVO FR Long Sleeve Polo Shirt

Product Overview

The PW3 Modaflame Knit HVO FR Long Sleeve Polo Shirt is a sophisticated safety garment designed for professionals who require a high level of protection without compromising on comfort. This well-engineered garment is constructed from a lightweight modacrylic fabric, providing inherent flame resistance alongside a contemporary aesthetic. It is specifically designed to offer advanced visibility and protection in hazardous environments, making it an essential piece of equipment for technical work environments.

Key Features

• Segmented Reflective Tape: The use of segmented tape improves freedom of movement and allows for better breathability, ensuring the garment remains comfortable during physical exertion.
• Modacrylic Fabric Construction: This material choice provides reliable flame-resistant properties while remaining lightweight and soft against the skin.
• Integrated Placket Loop: A thoughtfully placed loop at the placket offers a convenient location for securing glasses or pens, keeping essential items accessible yet secure.
• High Visibility Design: The orange and black colour combination ensures the wearer remains clearly visible, which is a critical safety requirement in high-risk situations.
• Long Sleeve Coverage: The full-length sleeves provide extended protection to the arms, enhancing the overall safety profile of the wearer.

Design & Performance

Performance is at the heart of the FR734. The modacrylic knit fabric is chosen for its ability to provide protection without the weight of traditional safety materials. This lightweight fabric ensures that the wearer does not become overheated during intensive tasks. Furthermore, the segmented tape design is a significant improvement over solid tape, as it allows the fabric to stretch and move naturally with the body. The contrast black panelling is not only a stylistic choice but also helps to conceal dirt in areas prone to soiling, maintaining a professional appearance throughout the working day.

Customisation: Print & Embroidery

This long sleeve polo shirt is compatible with both print and embroidery, allowing for versatile branding options. Embroidery provides a superior, traditional finish that is ideal for company logos and individual names, offering high durability that stands up to regular laundering. For larger, more prominent graphics, our high-quality printing service ensures your branding is bold and easily recognisable.

All customisation is performed by our expert in-house team at our Telford facility. MyWorkwear has been a specialist in the field since 1976, ensuring that every garment is finished to an exacting professional standard while maintaining the safety integrity of the original item.

Practical Advice

This polo shirt serves as an excellent base layer for year-round use. In colder months, its lightweight fabric allows it to be layered comfortably under a flame-resistant jacket or fleece. When selecting your size, consider that a proper fit is essential for the reflective tape to perform correctly and for the fabric to provide the intended level of protection.

Caring for your product

To maintain the high-visibility performance and flame-resistant properties of this garment, careful attention should be paid to maintenance. Keeping the garment clean is vital, as the build-up of dirt and grease can interfere with both the visibility of the tape and the protective qualities of the modacrylic fibres.

We recommend following the laundering instructions on the internal care label precisely. Avoiding the use of fabric softeners and bleach is critical, as these chemicals can coat or damage the fibres, potentially compromising the safety features of the shirt. Proper drying and storage will also ensure that the segmented tape remains adhered and functional for the life of the garment.
