INHERENT VS TREATED

KNOW THE DIFFERENCE

blk-fr_multinorm-800x600px-3-avif
COMFORT AND MOBILITY

INHERENT

Protection is built into the fibre itself, making flame resistance an inherent part of the material rather than something added afterwards. Inherent garments are often chosen when low weight, flexibility and comfort are especially important, while still delivering dependable protection in demanding environments.

TYPICAL BENEFITS:

  • Lightweight
  • Breathable
  • Long-lasting protection

 

blk-fr_multinorm-800x600px-4-avif
ROBUST PROTECTION

TREATED

Protection is achieved through a flame-resistant treatment applied to the fabric, often in cotton-rich materials that combine comfort with durability. Treated garments are often selected when robust performance, everyday practicality and cost-efficiency need to work together.

TYPICAL BENEFITS:

  • Cost-effective
  • Robust cotton fabrics
  • Proven protection for many industries

REFERENCE CASE

SIEMENS ENERGY X BLÅKLÄDER

Siemens Energy chose Blåkläder as its global workwear partner for many reasons: proven quality, lightweight comfort, dependable delivery and strong sustainability standards.

Following a successful wear test, Blåkläder stood out with breathable, durable garments that perform in demanding environments, while meeting the need for long-lasting protection, smooth logistics and a partnership built on close collaboration, responsiveness and trust, from daily supply to site-specific delivery when needed.

  • High-comfort workwear improves user acceptance
  • Reliable, flexible delivery system direct to site or employee
  • Durable inherent multinorm protection that lasts over time

“Blåkläder’s multinorm protective clothing is so comfortable that it hardly differs from regular workwear.”

UDO WEBER, SIEMENS ENERGY

BUILD YOUR PROTECTION

LAYER BY LAYER

Wearing arc-rated garments in layers increases protection in the event of an arc flash. Each garment provides protection on its own, but the air gap between the layers creates an additional barrier that helps reduce heat transfer to the skin.

THE IMPORTANCE OF COMFORT

Blåkläder’s flame-resistant workwear combines certified protection with comfort, mobility and durability, making garments that are easier to wear for the user and a smarter long-term choice for the company. Because when protective clothing feels right, it is more likely to be worn and to deliver value over time.

YOU GET:

  • Better wearer acceptance, with garments designed for comfort throughout the working day
  • Improved safety when protective clothing is worn correctly and consistently
  • Lower total cost of ownership, thanks to durable garments with a long service life
  • Better performance, through freedom of movement in demanding environments

A GUIDE TO CARE AND WASHING

Correct care helps protective workwear keep performing for longer. Regular washing removes dirt that can reduce performance and wear garments out faster, while damage, contamination, and incorrect handling can compromise protection immediately. Always follow the care label to help maintain both protection and lifespan. Flame protection is generally stable during washing, but other properties, such as visibility, may deteriorate more quickly.

  • Wash regularly to maintain function and extend lifespan
  • Dirt, contamination and damage can destroy protection immediately
  • Always follow the garment’s care instructions
  • Correct repairs matter; damaged garments may need replacing
