Product Overview
The PW3 Modaflame Work HVO Multi-Norm FR Trousers are an essential piece of equipment for professionals operating in multi-risk environments. These trousers combine contemporary design with advanced textile technology to provide a high level of protection without compromising on wearer comfort. Constructed using inherent Modaflame fabric, the flame-resistant properties are built into the fibres themselves, ensuring that the protection remains permanent throughout the life of the garment. This orange and black design not only meets rigorous safety standards but also provides a modern, professional appearance suitable for the most demanding worksites.
Key Features
- Triple stitching throughout the garment ensures maximum durability and prevents seams from failing under the physical stress of manual labour.
- Reinforced fabric at key abrasion points provides an extra layer of protection in high-wear areas, significantly extending the garment's service life.
- Top-loading kneepad pockets allow for the easy insertion of protective pads, providing essential joint protection for those who spend significant time working on the ground.
- An easy-access multiway thigh pocket offers secure and convenient storage for tools, keys, and mobile devices, keeping your essentials close at hand.
- Inherently anti-static properties provide crucial protection in environments where static discharge could pose a serious risk.
Design & Performance
The performance of these trousers is rooted in the sophisticated blend of materials. The primary shell fabric is a substantial, heavy-duty blend of modacrylic, viscose, polyester, aramid, and carbon fibre. This combination provides a comfortable handle while delivering exceptional moisture management, which is vital for maintaining focus during long shifts. To enhance mobility, the design incorporates Modaflame Work Stretch panels in the contrast areas. This allows for a greater range of movement and flexibility, ensuring the trousers move with you rather than against you. The garment is certified to EN ISO 20471 and RIS 3279 standards, making it suitable for railway environments and high-traffic areas where visibility is paramount.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
At MyWorkwear, we understand that your workwear is an extension of your brand. These trousers are suitable for both print and embroidery customisation. Embroidery is the preferred choice for a superior, professional appearance, typically used for company logos or staff names, as it offers excellent longevity and a textured finish. Printing is an ideal solution for larger, bold graphics that require high visibility from a distance. Our expert in-house team, based in Telford since 1976, utilises state-of-the-art machinery to ensure your branding is applied with precision and care, maintaining the integrity of the protective fabric while making your team look their best.
Use Cases
These trousers are specifically designed for professionals working in high-risk sectors. They are an ideal choice for the petrochemical industry, utility workers, and those involved in welding or electrical engineering where flame and static protection are non-negotiable. Furthermore, their compliance with rail industry standards makes them a reliable choice for trackside workers requiring high-visibility orange garments that can withstand the rigours of the UK rail network.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, please consider that these trousers are designed to be worn over standard undergarments. Given the substantial weight of the fabric and the inclusion of stretch panels, we recommend choosing your standard waist size for a secure and comfortable fit. If you intend to use the kneepad pockets, ensure the leg length is sufficient to allow the pads to sit correctly over your knees when in a kneeling position.
Caring for your product
To maintain the high-performance standards and protective qualities of these trousers, proper maintenance is essential. Neglecting care instructions can lead to a degradation of the flame-resistant properties and the visibility of the hi-vis elements.
We recommend a domestic wash at a maximum temperature of 40°C using a normal process. Exceeding this temperature may damage the synthetic fibres and reduce the longevity of the garment's structural integrity.
Under no circumstances should you use bleach. Bleaching agents will chemically attack the fibres, compromising both the inherent flame resistance and the strength of the fabric, which could lead to safety failures in hazardous conditions.
If tumble drying is necessary, use a low heat setting. High heat in the drying cycle can cause shrinkage and may distort the stretch panels, affecting the fit and comfort of the trousers. For the best results, ironing should be kept to a maximum temperature of 110°C to avoid scorching the technical fabric.
Finally, do not dry clean this garment. The chemicals used in the dry-cleaning process can react poorly with the multi-norm fabric blend, potentially stripping away the anti-static properties or damaging the reflective tape.
