HOT TEMPERATURES

HUMIDITY HIGH

Prolonged exposure to extreme heat and humidity without proper protection can cause serious health issues like dehydration, heat exhaustion, heatstroke, and impaired function, increasing the risk of accidents. Portwest addresses these challenges with innovative solutions to keep workers cool, dry, and safe in demanding conditions.

PORTWEST SOLUTIONS:

Cotton Comfort™ fabric is manufactured from a cotton rich fabric with cotton on the inside for comfort and polyester on the outside for maximum durability. The cotton polyester mix ensures that the fabric is highly breathable and that a comfortable temperature is maintained.

Texpel™ Wicking is a premium fabric finish which wicks moisture away from the skin to keep you fresh and comfortable. Offering powerful protection from stains, the fabric blocks unpleasant odors and provides enhanced breathability.

EzeeCool™ is our technical, moisture-wicking fabric, engineered to keep our wearers dry and cool when hard at work. Constructed to ensure that perspiration and excess moisture evaporate quickly for the best comfort in warm conditions.

MeshAir™ Pro is a double layer 100% polyester aerated mesh designed to improve airflow and draw moisture away from the skin, leaving the wearer cool, dry and comfortable. The MeshAir Pro 140g fabric features special hollow fibres that enhance air circulation to help regulate body temperature, while the double layer construction offers improved breathability and protection.

LIGHTWEIGHT

Lightweight - Heat load is often further increased from the use of protective clothing. At Portwest we have developed lighter-weight clothing suitable for use in hot environments and warm climates.

Portwest evaporative cooling products use Cooling 360° Fabric Technology with unique polymer chemistry. Activate by soaking in water, allowing the fabric to retain moisture, keeping the body cool in hot weather.
