The Challenges of Maintaining Arc Flash and Antistatic Clothing

Maintaining arc flash and antistatic clothing is more complex than it seems. It’s not just about looking clean; it’s about ensuring every garment continues to provide reliable electrical protection and meets strict safety standards.

Hygiene

Hygiene

Arc flash and antistatic workwear must be kept hygienic to protect workers, but at the same time, specialist laundering is required to preserve the fabric’s protective properties. Standard washing can damage or weaken these features.

Safety

Safety

Protective clothing for electrical work must always perform as intended. If garments are poorly maintained, they may lose their ability to prevent static build-up or withstand arc flash exposure — putting employees at serious risk.

Compliance

Compliance

Electrical and industrial safety standards demand that arc flash and antistatic clothing is properly maintained. Noncompliance can result in penalties, failed audits, and most importantly, unsafe working conditions.

Efficiency and Cost

Efficiency and Cost

Managing specialist workwear in-house requires investment in equipment, training, and labour. Outsourcing to a professional service ensures garments are cared for correctly while reducing hidden costs.

Environmental Impact

Environmental Impact

Specialist protective clothing needs sustainable care. Professional laundry services reduce water, energy, and chemical use while extending the lifespan of garments — balancing worker safety with environmental responsibility.

Arc Flash and Antistatic Laundry Process
Segregated Collection
Arc flash clothing and antistatic workwear are collected separately from general workwear so they never pick up lint, oil or residues from other textiles. Frequency can be increased for heavily soiled sites.
Identify and Inspect
Each garment's RFID tag tells the laundry whether it is arc flash clothing, antistatic workwear or both, and the programme is selected accordingly. Garments are checked for contamination, damage and wear to the conductive grid.
Residue-Free Washing
Antistatic performance depends on a residue-free fabric surface, and arc protection on the fabric's structure. Programmes are chosen to clear workplace soiling while protecting both.
Clean Drying
Garments are dried at controlled temperatures and finished to a standard fit.
Functional Check
Conductive pattern, outer layer, closures and fastenings are examined. Garments are repaired and replaced where necessary.
Traceable Delivery
Garments are scanned out and delivered to site or lockers with their maintenance history recorded, which is exactly the record an electrical safety audit will ask for.

Circular Textile Services for Electrical Safety Roles

For electrical work your garment is a control measure in the site’s risk assessment, not a uniform. That changes what a supplier has to deliver: not just clean garments but workwear whose protective properties are known to be intact each time they are issued.

By embracing a workwear rental model, you remove some of that responsibility. We supply certified arc flash clothing and antistatic workwear, launder it with programmes designed for its properties. You get a fleet of garments that is always fit for purpose, and the environmental benefit of garments that stay in service as long as they safely can.

Per-Garment Records via RFID and eLindström

When buying arc flash clothing and Antistatic workwear, electrical safety managers, HSE leads or engineering managers need to evidence, not just assert, that garments are maintained correctly. That is a different requirement from most workwear, and it is where a rental service with full garment traceability earns its place.

Lindström has been a textile services company for more than 175 years and supplies protective workwear to electrical and industrial customers across the UK and Europe. We understand that an arc flash garment which has been softener-washed at home may look identical to one that has been maintained properly, and that the difference only shows in an incident.

Three reasons customers in electrical safety roles choose us.

What is arc flash and why is specialised workwear needed?

Arc flash is a dangerous electrical explosion caused by short circuits or faults. Specialised arc flash clothing helps protect workers by reducing burn risk and preventing ignition.

add

What is the difference between antistatic and arc flash workwear?

Antistatic clothing reduces the buildup of static electricity, which can ignite flammable substances. Arc flash workwear provides a higher level of protection against electrical explosions. Many industries require garments that combine both properties.

add

Why rent arc flash and antistatic workwear instead of buying?

Renting ensures your team always has safe, compliant clothing without the hidden costs of washing, repairs, or replacements. Lindström’s service guarantees garments are maintained to the highest safety standards.

add

What safety standards should arc flash and antistatic workwear meet?

Arc flash and antistatic garments should comply with standards including IEC 61482-2 (protection against electric arc), EN ISO 11612 (heat and flame protection) and EN 1149-5 (antistatic properties). All Lindström workwear meets these requirements.

add

Which industries need arc flash and antistatic workwear?
