Product Overview
The PW3 Modaflame Work Hi-Vis Holster FR Trousers are an essential piece of equipment for professionals working in environments that demand both high visibility and multi-norm flame resistance. These trousers are engineered from a medium-weight, inherently flame-resistant fabric, ensuring that the protective qualities are built into the fibre itself and will not diminish with repeated washing. The inclusion of two-way stretch panels allows for an exceptional range of movement, addressing the common complaint that safety garments can feel restrictive during physical labour.
Key Features
- Zip Removable Holster Pockets: These multi-functional pockets provide secure storage for tools and can be detached when not required, offering versatility for different tasks throughout the day.
- Top Loading Kneepad Pockets: Designed for easy access, these allow you to insert knee protection quickly, ensuring comfort when working at ground level.
- Inherently Flame Resistant: Because the protection is inherent to the fabric composition, you can trust that its safety performance remains constant over the life of the garment.
- Anti-Static Protection: The inclusion of carbon fibre provides vital protection in environments where static discharge must be controlled.
- Reinforced Abrasion Points: FR reinforcement fabric is strategically placed at high-wear areas to ensure the trousers do not fail prematurely under heavy use.
Design & Performance
The core of this garment is the Modaflame Work fabric, a sophisticated blend of modacrylic, cotton, and carbon fibre. This medium-weight material provides a substantial feel without being cumbersome. For the areas requiring movement, we use Modaflame Work Stretch, which incorporates elastane to provide flexibility. This ensures that whether you are climbing, kneeling, or reaching, the trousers move with you rather than against you. The yellow and black contrast design is not merely aesthetic; it is designed to maintain a professional appearance by masking dirt in high-contact areas while ensuring you remain visible in low-light conditions.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
To ensure your team presents a professional appearance, these trousers are suitable for both print and embroidery. Embroidery is particularly recommended for company logos or staff names, providing a durable and high-quality finish that withstands the rigours of industrial work. If you require larger, more vibrant graphics, our printing processes are equally effective. All customisation is handled in-house by our expert team in Telford, a tradition of quality we have maintained since 1976.
Use Cases
These trousers are specifically designed for tradespeople in the petrochemical, utility, and rail industries, or any environment requiring FR and anti-static compliance. They are ideal for electricians and engineers who require the utility of holster pockets and the protection of flame-resistant materials while needing the flexibility to move through tight spaces.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, consider the layers you may need to wear underneath in colder conditions. The two-way stretch fabric provides some give, but for the best performance, a correct fit is essential to ensure the kneepad pockets sit at the right height. The removable holster pockets are a particular benefit for those who transition between active site work and driving or office-based tasks.
Caring for your product
To maintain the high-performance standards and longevity of these trousers, proper care is essential. We recommend a normal wash process at a maximum temperature of 60°C. This temperature is sufficient to remove the oils and grime often encountered in technical roles without compromising the structural integrity of the modacrylic fibres.
Do not use bleach when cleaning this garment. Bleach can cause significant damage to the specialised fibres and may degrade the protective qualities and the vibrancy of the high-visibility pigment.
When drying, use a low tumble dry setting. High heat in the drying cycle can lead to unnecessary shrinkage and may affect the elasticity of the stretch panels. If ironing is required, use a maximum soleplate temperature of 150°C to avoid heat damage.
Finally, these trousers should not be dry cleaned. The chemicals used in professional dry cleaning processes can interfere with the flame-resistant properties and the technical finish of the fabric. Following these instructions ensures your investment continues to provide maximum protection and comfort.
