Flame Resistant RIS Sweatshirt

Flame-Resistant High-Vis Workwear Sweatshirt

The Portwest FR703 Flame Resistant RIS Sweatshirt (ORR) is designed for work environments where safety, visibility, and durability are essential. Its high-visibility orange colour and inherent flame-resistant performance make it ideal for industrial teams, rail, oil & gas, utilities, and other sectors where hazard protection and on-site visibility are critical. Certified to multiple international safety standards, this sweatshirt delivers trusted protection without sacrificing comfort.

Inherent Protection for Hazardous Work

Built from advanced Modaflame HVO knit fabric, this sweatshirt offers inherent flame resistance that won’t wash out, so protection stays consistent over time. It also provides anti-static performance and is designed to protect against heat, flames and electrical arc hazards. With premium flame-resistant reflective tape and high-visibility design, it enhances wearer safety in low-light and high-risk conditions.

Practical Features for Workplace Performance

The FR703 includes snug rib cuffs and hem for a secure, comfortable fit, while the generous cut allows freedom of movement throughout the working day. Reflective tape increases visibility from all directions, and the brushed backing adds softness against the skin — making it suitable for long shifts in demanding environments.
