The choice of fabric is the basis of a special protective work clothes, fundamentally determines the quality and performance of protective work clothes. Special protective clothing as the last line of protection against the invasion of external harmful factors on the human body, the selection of special functional fabric is the top priority of customized work clothes, which links should be focused on the selection of special protective clothing fabric? Today, Xiaobian will explore the choice of special protective clothing fabrics with you!

First of all, the selection of special protective work clothes should try to meet the basic safety protection performance of the industry clothing, reduce the damage and impact of environmental factors and the nature of work on the human body. Different working environments have different performance requirements for the protection and safety of work clothes fabric, such as flammable and explosive working environment, work clothes fabric should have flame retardant and anti-static performance; Hygroscopic ventilation of high temperature environment must be heat insulation, high temperature resistance; Chemical pollution environment must be resistant to acid and alkali corrosion, oil; Electric clothing often carried out field work, work clothing fabrics should be flame retardant and arc proof, but also need to have reflective accessories to match to policy safety;

 

Secondly, enterprises customized special protective work clothes should bring the maximum degree of physical comfort to employees, especially in the petrochemical, metallurgical industry, metal processing, mechanical welding and other front-line operations of the staff, because of the labor intensity, long working time, the physiological comfort requirements of clothes are much higher than ordinary work clothes. The choice of clothing fabric should pay attention to the influence of hygroscopicity, permeability, softness, elasticity and other performance indicators on the human body, choose fabrics with hygroscopicity, sweat and quick drying function.

Thirdly, special protective work clothes customization should also pay attention to the environmental protection of the fabric. Clothing directly acts on human skin contact, the impact on human health can be imagined. In the process of making clothes from fabric fiber to garment, only dyes involve 22 kinds of carcinogenic aromatic amine intermediates, more than 100 kinds of corresponding dye auxiliaries, fire retardant and coatings, and more than 10 kinds of heavy metals. According to the annual clothing spot check report released by Guangdong Market Supervision Administration in 2020, 399 out of 1,902 types of clothing in 11 categories produced by 815 enterprises were found to be unqualified, accounting for nearly 49%. Major failures included formaldehyde content, fiber content, PH, and carcinogenic aromatic amine dyes. Therefore, when choosing the fabric of work clothes, pay attention to the environmental protection label of fabric products, which is an important reference to ensure the purchase of qualified protective equipment.

Finally, the cost performance of the procurement of special protective work clothes is undoubtedly a more concerned indicator of enterprises. Procurement staff should not simply press the price to determine the ratio of protective clothing, take the flame retardant fabric, light in terms of price, nature work clothes are generally post-processing flame retardant fabric flame retardant fabrics work clothes to the market price of 3 to 5 times, but it should be noted that essence of flame retardant fabrics clothing protection performance is greatly superior to post-processing of flame retardant fabrics, Moreover, its wearing life is more than 5 times that of the post-treatment flame-retardant fabric work clothes. Therefore, the material selection of protective work clothes in high-risk flammable and explosive work scenes should use essential flame-retardant fabric, which has higher protective performance and can effectively prevent or reduce the occurrence of industrial accidents and occupational diseases.
