Frequently asked questions

What certifications does the BZ12 cape hood carry?

It meets EN ISO 11612 (A1+A2, B1, C1, E2, F1) for heat and flame protection and EN ISO 11611 for protective clothing used in welding. It is CE-CAT III rated and CE certified.

Does it protect against UV exposure as well as heat?

Yes. The fabric is UPF 40+ rated, blocking around 98% of UV rays, which is useful for outdoor hot-work in direct sun.

How does the hood stay in place?

A self-fabric drawcord at the face opening lets you adjust the hood for a snug fit, and popper fastenings hold the cape section closed at the front.

What colours are available?

The BZ12 is available in NAR and Navy.

Is it warm enough to wear as extra insulation in cold weather?

No, it is not thermal rated. It is designed purely for flame and heat protection, not as an insulating layer.

Can it be customised with embroidery or a company logo?

No, this cape hood is not available with embroidery or logo printing.

How should I wash and care for it?

Wash at 40 degrees, do not bleach or tumble dry, line dry, use a medium iron setting, and do not dry clean.
