Ballyclare Limited is the most respected provider of workwear clothing in the United Kingdom. For decades now, the Stockport-based company has outfitted Britain’s police forces, oilmen, military personnel, and firefighters. Because of this long-standing track record, Ballyclare Limited knows what it takes to keep Britain’s labour force safe and secure while on the job.

Building Safety into Every Stitch

Ballyclare’s official slogan is “Building Safety into Every Stitch.” Ballyclare knows that building rugged, long-lasting workwear starts with the basics. That is, to build the best possible workwear, you need the best material. This is why all of Ballyclare’s fabrics and materials are sourced from top-quality fabric companies in Europe.

Firefighting Clothing from Ballyclare Limited

The quality of the clothing in Ballyclare’s diverse Firefighting apparel line is obvious. The Xenon Structural Firefighter Jacket, for example, has several different layers that each use a blend of fabrics. The outer layer of the Structural Firefighter Jacket is constructed from a combination of PBI, Nomex, and Kermel fabric. The jacket’s moisture layer features Gore Parallon, Gore-Tex Fireblocker, and Gore-Tex Airlock.

These fabrics are all extremely lightweight and flexible, giving the firefighter maximum breathability without sacrificing comfort or safety.

Ballyclare Limited offers the Structural Firefighter Jacket in both men’s and women’s sizes.

Xenon Multi-Function Firefighter Rescue Jacket

Another popular item in Ballyclare’s Firefighting Suits line is the Xenon Multi-Function Firefighter Rescue Jacket. This versatile jacket is suited for several different emergency service purposes. The jacket is great for firefighters who need to extinguish a fire, and is also worn by individuals who are trying to put out fires in woodlands.

The Xenon Multi-Function Firefighter Rescue Jacket is made out of neon yellow Gore-Tex fabrics. The jacket also features several iridescent silver stripes, making it ideal for emergency response personnel who are working in low-visibility conditions.

For those who need pocket space, the Xenon Multi-Function has several easy-access vertical pockets and sleeve pockets that are great for storing necessary items. Another unique touch Ballyclare added to this exquisite firefighting jacket is that the cuffs of the Xenon are wide enough to accommodate all different types of gloves.
