How Does Chainsaw Protective Clothing Work?
If a chainsaw cuts through the protective layer on chainsaw protected clothing, then it rips out bundles of long and tough fibres which wrap themselves around the saw, clogging it and bringing it to a standstill. This clever design could be potentially life or limb saving in the event of an accident as the fast-moving blades will cut through any materials so reinforced or shielded clothing won't stand a chance.
Does the Jacket Provide Total Coverage?
The Portwest CH15 Chainsaw Jacket is certified to EN 11393 Type B which means it offers more protection than jackets certified to Type A. The additional full front protection provided by Type B certified jackets could be lifesaving as it protects many of your vital organs. The total coverage of this jacket extends beyond your arms and chest to include your abdomen for whole torso protection.
The areas highlighted in orange are where the Type B certified jackets provide protection.
How Protective are the Trousers?
The Portwest CH14 Chainsaw Trousers are certified to EN 11393 Class 1 Type C and provide a significant amount of protection compared to Type A and Type B trousers. The additional protection covers around the whole 360° of your leg so that the backs of your thighs and calves receive the same exceptional protection that the front of your legs do. This extra security could be the difference between a life changing injury or walking home at the end of your shift.

Reflective Orange Visibility
Staying visible is important when you work around heavy machinery, chainsaws and trees being felled. For that reason, both the trousers and the jacket feature reflective panelling and heat applied segmented reflective tape to keep you clearly visible. They are also designed with a bright orange colour that helps you stand out to avoid the risk of accidental injury.
Exceptional Storage
You can keep everything you need throughout your shift on your person at once, with a substantial amount of storage this practical gear helps you work efficiently. The jacket includes four large pockets with zipped chest pockets for secure storage, while the trousers have an unbelievable eight pockets, including a large zip pocket on the back for multiple storage options.
Wear Whatever the Weather
Outdoor work often involves working in bad weather conditions and this jacket and trouser bundle is designed to handle rain, wind and cold for your comfort. With a zip front jacket that provides insulation and trousers that are padded for warmth. The jacket is made from high-quality cotton and polyester blend while the trousers are nylon for a water repellent outfit that is guaranteed to keep you dry in wet environments.
Can I Move Freely in This Heavy-Duty Workwear?
While the jacket and trousers need to be thick for ample chainsaw protection, Portwest know that restricted movement would only present more risks while forcing you to work slower. To keep you moving freely they have designed this workwear with stretch fabric in key locations to give you an increased range of movement. With both jacket and trousers on, you will still find that you can exercise a great freedom of movement.
