Arcbuster Hot Worker Welding Coverall

Complying with the strict EN standards is a challenge for all manufacturers of fame retardant workwear, however…surpassing the limits of the testing equipment is something which does not happen frequently. And that is exactly what ROOTS has accomplished with the Arcbuster fabric. The Notified Body SATRA was not able to apply more than 40 drops of molten metal whilst the fabric could take much more.

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.
