Atoll Hydra Matrix Bomber Jacket

Yes. The Atoll Hydra Matrix Bomber Jacket Yellow is built for high-risk work because it combines high-visibility certification and protective standards with practical weather protection. It is certified to ISO 20471 Class 3 for maximum hi-vis performance and EN ISO 14116 Index 1 for limited flame spread, and it also meets EN1149-5 for anti-static performance and EN 343:2019 for weather protection. Key features like a front zip with Velcro storm flap, detachable hood, storm cuffs and handwarmer pockets add durability and on-the-job functionality. This jacket suits construction crews, utility and maintenance workers, and anyone who needs both flame-retardant and high-visibility protection in variable weather. Note that EN ISO 14116 Index 1 covers limited flame spread rather than specialised welding-level protection, so for heavy or sustained arc welding you should use task-specific PPE.

Yes. The Atoll Hydra Matrix Bomber Jacket Yellow is designed to keep you highly visible and largely dry in poor weather. It carries ISO 20471 Class 3 hi-vis certification, which ensures conspicuity in low-light and traffic environments, and it meets EN 343 for weather protection with a waterproof rating of Class 3 and breathability Class 1. Practical features such as a detachable hood, Velcro storm flap over the front zip and storm cuffs reduce water ingress and wind chill. This makes the jacket a good choice for roadwork, outdoor maintenance, and site supervisors who need visibility plus reliable rain protection. Keep in mind EN 343 Class 3 is for strong weather resistance but is not intended for full immersion or prolonged exposure to driving spray without additional covers.

The Atoll Hydra Matrix Bomber Jacket offers stronger flame and static protection than standard hi-vis garments. It meets EN ISO 14116:2015 Index 1 for limited flame spread, meaning the fabric resists ignition and will not readily propagate flames, and it also conforms to EN1149-5 (EN 1149-3) for anti-static properties to reduce electrostatic buildup. Standard hi-vis jackets often only meet visibility standards and lack these specific FR and anti-static certifications. These protections make the jacket appropriate for workers exposed to occasional flash or spark risks, such as certain utility or petrochemical tasks. However, Index 1 is not equivalent to specialist welding or arc-flash PPE, so for prolonged high-heat or arc-risk jobs you should choose equipment certified to those specific standards.
