Multi Protector is without a doubt one of the most complete and functional ranges around.

Multi Protector ensures wearer comfort, safety, functionality and superb industrial laundry behaviour all combined into one garment.


When we first started back in 2008 our main focus was the oil & gas industry. This was the basis for the Flamebuster range. Based upon
Pyrovatex technology this range offers the best protection against heat and flames, claims which are supported by many burn injury test reports. However…when besides protection against heat and flames industrial welding and grinding comes into play and then cotton fabrics – apart from the Arcbuster range – are less suitable for the job. Welding and grinding will result in fabric damages by means of hole formation which will fray out resulting in even bigger holes.


It is common knowledge that cotton/polyester blends are more suitable for welding and grinding because of the polyester which keeps the little holes from fraying out. The biggest issue with cotton/polyester is the high burn injury percentage which potentially could result in dangerous fabrics.


Multi Protector complies with the EN ISO 11611 Class 2 (welding standard) – the highest achievable class! As with the Arcbuster, we once
again have developed a fabric which exceeds the testing equipment limits. The impact of metal droplets stops at 40 yet the Multi Protector fabric can withstand much more. Comparable fabrics in the same blend hardly reach over 28 drops…It may not come as a surprise but we also managed to achieve the performance level E3 according to EN ISO 11612 – again, the highest level possible.

LCA – Understanding the numbers


Each ROOTS products with an LCA shows these key figures:

  • kg CO₂ equivalent - The total climate impact of all greenhouse gases, converted into one standard unit, so you can compare like-for-like.
  • m³ Water Deprived - Not just water use, but where it’s used. This accounts for regional scarcity, because a litre in Egypt isn’t the same as a litre in the UK.
  • The key figures are measured in 5 phases

    1. Upstream – Raw materials and components: fibres, trims, packaging.

    2. Core Process – Production: spinning, weaving, dyeing, and assembly.

    3. Downstream – Transport and distribution. Smaller footprint than you'd think.

    4.1 Use – Laundry – Washing during use. 40 cycles for coveralls, trousers and jackets, 2 for parkas, bodywarmers and softshell jackets

    4.2 Disposal – End-of-life: landfill, incineration, recycling, or reuse.
