ProGARM, the UK’s leading Arc Flash protection specialist, has developed a new Arc Flash protective hoodie, following demand from its clients.

The new hoodie features a warm neck design, making it ideal for working outside, as well as a drawstring hood. The garment also includes inner fleece lining for additional warmth, a ribbed waistband and cuffs to ensure a great fit, as well as front pockets.

The warmth provided by the inner fleece lining and neck designs is crucial to the design to prevent wearers from being tempted to layer up with non-Arc Flash protective clothing beneath the protective hoodie. Everyday materials can melt into an operative’s skin or even compromise the protection given by any Arc Flash garment when worn underneath their PPE, should an Arc Flash incident occur.
