When it comes to chainsaw operations, safety is non-negotiable. Every year, thousands of professionals face risks from chainsaw accidents, making reliable protective clothing a critical line of defense. At Shanghai Weixi, we’ve spent over a decade refining our production process to create gear that doesn’t just meet industry standards—it sets new benchmarks. In this blog, we’ll take you behind the scenes of how we craft high-quality chainsaw protective clothing, from material selection to final certification.
Quality begins with adherence to the strictest regulations.
·
·
·
ISO 11393
Focused on hand protection, this standard outlines performance requirements and test methods for chainsaw gloves, ensuring dexterity without compromising on cut resistance .
·
Additionally, our products comply with the PPE Regulation (EU) 2016/425, a legal framework mandating strict safety checks for personal protective equipment . By integrating these standards into every step, we ensure our gear protects lives, not just meets quotas.
The right materials are the backbone of effective chainsaw protective clothing. We source and test cutting-edge textiles to balance durability, flexibility, and comfort:
·
Polyethylene
Renowned for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, polyethylene fibers are 15 times stronger than steel. When woven into fabric, they create a barrier that “shreds and tangles” chainsaw chains upon contact, slowing or stopping them instantly .
·
·
Polyester
This abrasion-proof material is critical for withstanding high-speed friction. Our fabrics are rubber-coated for enhanced durability, making them ideal for heavy-duty use in forestry and construction .
·
·
·
Our production process blends advanced machinery with skilled craftsmanship to ensure consistency and reliability:
· All raw materials undergo tensile strength tests and abrasion resistance checks in our in-house lab.
· Fabrics are layered using computerized looms to optimize protection zones . We use lock stitch sewing with polyester threads to prevent seam failure under stress .
· Our patterns are developed with input from professional arborists. Features like articulated knees, adjustable cuffs, and moisture-wicking liners ensure comfort during long shifts—because safety shouldn’t mean sacrificing mobility.
· Each garment undergoes 30+ manual inspections, including zippers, Velcro closures, and fabric integrity. Random samples are sent to third-party labs for EN 510:2019 compliance testing, such as chain entanglement simulations 1 6.
A product isn’t truly “high-quality” until it’s proven in real-world conditions:
·
User Feedback Loops
We partner with forestry schools and logging companies to gather field data. Recent feedback led us to add reflective strips for low-light visibility and reinforce elbow patches for frequent kneeling .
·
·
Sustainability Focus
We’re committed to eco-friendly practices, such as recycling fabric scraps and using water-based dyes. Our goal is to reduce carbon emissions by 20% by 2026 without compromising protection.
·
· Certified Safety: ISO 11393, and EU PPE Regulation compliant.
· Innovative Materials: UHMwPE, Polyester ,polypropylene for maximum protection.
· Craftsmanship: 10+ years of expertise in ergonomic design and precision manufacturing.
When you choose our gear, you’re not just buying clothing—you’re investing in peace of mind.
