The Portwest FR718 PW3 Modaflame Softshell Jacket is a premium multi-norm high visibility softshell designed for workers who require advanced protection without sacrificing comfort or mobility. Built from a durable 3-layer Modaflame softshell with an FR TPU membrane, it provides inherent flame resistance, anti-static performance, chemical resistance, and outstanding protection against radiant and convective heat.

Engineered for demanding environments, the jacket includes heat-applied segmented reflective tape for flexible visibility, Acti-Reach™ one-panel construction to maximise reach and movement, and a windproof, water-resistant outer for all-weather performance. The chin guard, dropped back hem, and adjustable cuffs enhance protection against wind and cold, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor work.
