EN343 is the European standard that applies to garments worn in adverse weather conditions. This standard specifies requirements and test methods applicable to the materials and seams of protective clothing against the influence of precipitation (e.g. rain, snowflakes), fog, and ground humidity.
The pictogram to the left indicates that protection against rain is offered.
The standard provides for two performance parameters of which there are 4 levels with Class 4 offering the highest level of protection.
Constructed using hollow fibre technology, Insulatex™ provides a lighter and warmer thermal lining. The unique fabric technology locks in the body's warmth to create a thermal barrier whilst the high-performance fine knit offers superior lightweight comfort to the wearer without adding bulk.
InsulatexPro is Portwest's most advanced lightweight thermal lining with supreme warmth-to-weight ratio.
Three times warmer than standard insulation, the soft insulating fabric has millions of air pockets that trap air and body heat offering maximum protection in extreme cold and wet conditions without weighing the wearer down with excess weight.
Portwest Extreme™ is a premium high performance rainwear fabric constructed from 100% Polyester, 300D Stretch Oxford 200g and offers superior comfort, function, and endurance in all weather conditions. Waterproof, breathable, and windproof to the highest standards, this fabric far exceeds the requirements of EN 343 Class 4:4.
The exterior fabric surface is treated with a Texpel finish to protect against water and oil stains, and the microporous fabric delivers exceptional stretch characteristics.
The EV4 Winter Parka uses dynamic stretch and highly insulating fabric that guarantees warmth and comfort. The ergonomic profile allows for an unrestricted range of motion and greater freedom of movement. Its longer back length, wind cuffs and adjustable hood provide extra protection against the elements.
