FAQ - Portwest AS10 Anti-Static ESD Lab Coat
What makes the Portwest AS10 suitable for ESD work areas?
Its fabric contains 1% carbon fiber woven through a polyester-cotton blend to provide inherent anti-static properties. The garment is listed to EN 1149-5 and EN 61340-5-1.
Is the AS10 certified for cleanrooms?
Portwest does not list a cleanroom classification for the AS10. Confirm the garment, laundering method and contamination-control requirements against the protocol for the specific controlled environment.

It has three pockets: two lower patch pockets and one two-tier chest pocket with a pen division.
How should the AS10 ESD coat be washed?
Portwest permits normal washing at up to 60 C, no bleach, low-temperature tumble drying or line drying, ironing at up to 150 C and professional dry cleaning. Follow the supplied garment label and the facility's ESD garment-control procedure.
