Dromex® DW-UTI-FA-J-AB is a stylish and hard-wearing, flame and acid treated technical utility jacket designed for durability and functionality whilst protecting the user from accidental flame contact and acid splashes reducing
injury when working in hazardous environments. These hard-wearing jackets are made with 100% cotton fabric, which is breathable and comfortable.
Features:
• 2 Multi-functional custom waist pockets with zip closure, 2 chest pockets with hook and loop closure, left pocket has multiple pens pockets and right pocket with a concealed side entry pocket and zip fastener, an inner mobile phone pocket with hook and loop fastening, and a pen/ruler pocket on the left arm) for ample storage.
• Adjustable sleeve cuffs.
• Adjustable waist band with press stud fasteners.
• Action back pleats at rear of jacket for comfort and flexibility.
• Reflective piping for enhanced visibility.
• Contrasting color for added style.
• Stress points are bar tacked.
• Flame retardant and acid resistant embroidery on left upper sleeve. This garment is suitable for use in general work environments such as engineering, construction, maintenance, repairs and welding related industries.

Compliance & Conformity
• BS EN ISO 14116:2015: specifies the performance requirements for the limited flame spread properties of all materials, all material assemblies and protective clothing in order to reduce the possibility of the clothing burning when in occasional and brief contact with small ames and thereby constituting a hazard. Additional requirements for clothing are also specified including design requirements, mechanical requirements, marking and information supplied by the manufacturer.
• BS EN ISO 6530:2005: specifies a test method for the measurement of indices of penetration, absorption and repellency for protective clothing materials against liquid chemicals, mainly chemicals of low volatility.
Two levels of the potential performance of materials are assessed by this method of testing to meet with possible requirements for protection against the following:
a) Deposition on the surface of a material at minimal pressure of spray droplets up to coalescence or occasional small drips;
b) Contamination by a single low-volume splash or low-pressure jet allowing sufficient time to divest the clothing or take other action as necessary to eliminate any hazard to the wearer from chemical retained by the protective garment or in circumstances where pressure is applied to liquid contaminants on the surface of the clothing material as a result of natural movements of the wearer (flexing of contaminated areas of clothing at arms, knees, shoulders) and contact with contaminated surfaces (e.g. walking through sprayed foliage).
Acid resistance for protective clothing against liquid chemicals for performance requirements for chemical protective clothing offering limited protective performance against liquid chemicals.
The acid resistant finish is primarily a liquid proof coating that is not destroyed by the action of acids or other chemicals. It doesn’t allow the cloth to be wetted by the acids and is therefore “acid resistant”:
The test chemicals are:
• Hydrochloric Acid (HCl) 36%
• Sulphuric Acid 30%
• Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH) 40%
