Foundry clothing for the highest physical demands

Innovative high-tech wool fiber for minimal heat stress and maximum protection

Innovative high-tech wool fiber for minimal heat stress and maximum protection against aluminum and other metal splashes

In foundries, the risk from hot materials is particularly high and the requirements for adequate protective clothing are high. Thermal hazards arise not only from possible contact with molten metals, slags, and other burning or hot working materials, but also from thermal radiation

Employees can be burned by molten metal, slag and solidified but still hot castings. Melt can spill over and splash during tapping of melting furnaces, interception and transfer into ladles, transport, and casting, or flow out of parting lines when molds "go through" during pouring. Clothing made of flame-retardant material must be worn in smelters and foundries to protect against burn injuries. In particular, the body, arms and hands must be protected.

With the "Pure Metal" collection from CWS Workwear, you are opting for a new generation of fabrics to protect against all metal splashes. The patented fabric "Wooltechs" of the Spanish manufacturer Santanderina, which is considered a pioneer in the development of textile high-performance fibers, is used. The fiber substrate means that even low-viscosity aluminum splashes do not adhere to the clothing; at the same time, the material blend offers a very high level of wearer comfort.

A little material science

"Wooltechs" combines the natural fiber wool with sustainably produced, flame-resistant viscose from LenzingTM as well as aramids for high durability and dimensional stability. The protective clothing is double-layered: rich in wool on the outside and soft, breathable viscose on the inside. The "Pure Metal" thus offers the best comfort-protection ratio on the market.

CWS Solution Workwear Wash Care

Advantage: Industrial washing

Anyone who works in foundries knows that the fumes generated during casting are odor-intensive and contain a high proportion of graphite dust, which gets trapped in work clothing. When it comes to cleaning, household washing machines quickly reach their limits. CWS foundry protective clothing is cleaned in highly specialized industrial laundries, checked for damage and wear and, if necessary, repaired directly by our tailors - for safe protection in every application.
