Engineered for Performance

The Benson III 3-in-1 jacket represents the pinnacle of adaptable site wear, engineered specifically for professionals who face unpredictable British weather patterns. At the core of this garment is the Isotex 10,000 coated polyester fabric, a high-performance material designed to withstand a hydrostatic head of 10,000mm. This ensures that even during torrential downpours, water cannot penetrate the outer shell. Crucially, this waterproofing does not compromise breathability; the hydrophilic breathable system allows inner moisture vapour to escape, preventing the 'greenhouse effect' often associated with lesser waterproof jackets. The inclusion of taped seams provides a hermetic seal against moisture ingress at the stitching points, a vital requirement for meeting the EN343 class 3:2 certification. This jacket is not merely a barrier against rain but a comprehensive shield against the elements, featuring a windproof construction that eliminates wind chill, keeping your workforce warm and focused on the task at hand. The studded storm flap adds an extra layer of defence for the main zipper, ensuring that the primary entry point remains impervious to driving rain.

Comfort & Workforce Utility

Beyond raw technical protection, the Benson III is designed with the operational comfort of the wearer in mind. The '3-in-1' designation refers to its versatile configuration options, allowing staff to wear the waterproof outer shell, the inner fleece, or both combined for maximum thermal retention. This adaptability makes it a cost-effective solution for year-round uniform procurement. The mesh-lined body of the outer shell promotes air circulation, reducing fatigue during high-activity shifts. Ergonomic features such as adjustable cuffs and an adjustable shock cord waist and hem allow the wearer to tailor the fit to their specific physique, preventing loose fabric from snagging on machinery while sealing out draughts. Practicality is further enhanced by ample storage options, including two lower pockets with zipped hand warmers, a zipped chest pocket for secure document storage, and two lower cargo pockets for tools. The concealed hood can be deployed instantly during sudden showers or stowed neatly away to maintain a smart, professional silhouette when not required.

Ideal Workplace Applications

• Construction and Civil Engineering sites requiring EN343 compliance.
• Logistics and Warehousing staff exposed to loading bay elements.
• Event Management teams requiring all-weather adaptability.
