  • A search for the highest level of safety, best functionality and excellent comfort. This series offers products of the highest quality which, in addition to having antistatic, antiacid, flame retardant, waterproof and weather protection properties, is complemented by the use of high visibility fabrics and retro-reflective bands.

  • Fluorescent clothing provides maximum safety and visibility, is available in safety classes 2 and 3 and is ideal for road construction sites and urban and suburban work environments. For comfort and breathability, all our garments are made from cotton-blend fabrics. These fabrics combine the strength of polyester with the breathability and comfort of cotton, for a pleasant skin feel.

  • The foundry protective workwear protects against possible flames, molten metal splashes and radiant heat.

  • This type of clothing is mainly used by fire fighters, but also by fire prevention personnel in industry. It is made with the utmost care and with the best fireproof materials, so that heat cannot penetrate into the clothing. The garments are made with multi-layered fabrics to meet different requirements: the outermost layer, which acts as a first shield, is fireretardant and heat-resistant; the breathable under layer protects against the penetration of sweat and allows water vapour to escape; and the inner lining provides an air pocket to protect the operator from external heat. Another feature of these garments is the presence of retro-reflective bands that allow workers to be visible even during operations with poor visibility.

  • Arc flash specific protective work clothing protects against accidental, unexpected shortcircuiting in high-potential electrical installations, where air ionisation develops, producing intense heat, toxic gases and ultraviolet radiation. The thermal energy developed can be up to four times that of a strong flame. This type of safety clothing is part of our line of multi-protection accident prevention workwear which, in addition to being tested in relation to the arc flash, protects against heat, flames, static electricity and chemicals.

  • This line is dedicated to rescue clothing and is suitable for use by all civil protection and rescue workers. Refined and functional work uniforms for every type of emergency. As for high visibility, to guarantee comfort and breathability, all our garments are made of cottonblend fabrics, combining the resistance of polyester with the breathability and comfort of cotton, for a pleasant sensation on the skin.

  • Food clothing must be made taking into account every hygiene aspect of the workplace. For this reason, we have developed a range of 100% cotton garments with a certified Sanitized® antibacterial treatment. This ensures cleanliness and breathability of the garment, as well as guaranteeing adequate comfort throughout the working day.
