Performance Protec�ve Clothing Comfort Safety Durability= + +

P P CHow does PPC differ from general workwear and PPE (Personal protec�ve equipment)?

Six core features of Performance protec�ve Clothing (PPC)

Ÿ Innova�ve fabric structure

Ÿ Innova�ve fabric treatment technology

Ÿ Protec�on and safety “armour”

Ÿ Func�onal workwear fabric

Ÿ Func�onal workwear design

Ÿ Hot or cold–performance

Performance Protec�ve Clothing was developed and first introduced in Japan 8 years ago and has been

developed for the changing requirements of the workers here in Australia to increase your protec�on and

comfort in our changing workplaces. The Performance in PPC relates to the inherent func�onality of the weaving

and treatment technogoly used in our workwear.

F-TECH Workwear gives you the edge in safety in the workplace.

Why should your company invest in PPC workwear?Simply put, PPC from F-TECH Workwear provides your company with much more bang for its buck.

Worker comfort and well-being

The inherent moisture wicking provided by the material’s innova�ve climate control technology will improve the

working lives of your workers on a daily basis. The fabric’s unique, quick drying moisture wicking feature cools

the wearer in the same way as the pores in skin, allowing the moisture to bead on the outer surface of the

clothing and evaporate. As the moisture is not trapped in the co�on fibres of the garments, the body’s ability to

“breathe” is not restricted, which will reduce your workers’ core body temperature by 1 degree in hot

environments and mi�gates heat stress.

A worker who is physically comfortable will have a improved mental a�tude and will work more produc�vely.

Reducing heat stress will also improve worker health and safety as well as reduce absenteeism.

Save money long term on procurement costs

No doubt your company’s spend on protec�ve clothing is considerable, so garments that shrink and fade a�er

only a few washes, tear easily and wear out quickly are a serious drain on the bo�om line. The PPC F-TECH range

offers the incredible durability provided by the fabric used in our garments, completely new to Australia, which

has been developed by Shikibo Japan and manufactured by them under an ISO quality assured process. Our

fabric is twice as strong as the same weight in co�on drill and PPC garments will not shrink with washing and

drying like standard PPE garments and will resist fading even a�er hundreds of wash cycles. PPC F-TECH

garments will therefore provide a rapid return on investment as you spend significantly less in replacement of

workwear and the full longevity and quality and benefits are realised by your procurement team.

Appearances ma�er

Your customers’ and the general public’s percep�on of your company will be enhanced by the professional look

of your staff, provided by their as-new-looking workwear. The easy care PPC fabric keeps them looking good even

without ironing so your employees will always look professional while s�ll enjoying the protec�on of garments

which meet industry compliance standards for safety.

Why will your workers love PPC garments?There is nothing more personal than touch, be it a hand on the shoulder or feel of the shirt on your back. A wet

shirt stuck to your body can make their working day very unpleasant and even unsafe because discomfort

distracts the mind from the job at hand and situa�onal awareness. Even worse are hot, s�cky drill pants

producing unpleasant lower body discomfort. Performance Protec�ve Clothing (PPC) F-TECH garments are a real

game changer.

Ÿ The shirt fabric func�ons like skin pores to conduct sweat to the outer surface where it beads and cools the

wearer by evapora�on.

Ÿ The fabric and structure of the pants draws moisture away from the crotch and down the leg, removing

localised moisture and s�ckiness while allowing quick-dry comfort and hygiene in the hot and o�en humid

Australian workplace.

F-TECH PPC is low maintenance. By following the simple three step, wash-hang-wear process your workers will

save �me for have work �me for recrea�on and family without sacrificing pride in their professional appearance

while at work.

F-TECH PPC will help keep them safe. The toughness and tear-resistance of the fabic used in these garments will

protect your workers from cuts, abrasions and burns in the workplace.

PPC is a game changerOnce you and your workers experience the PPC advantage, you won’t want to go back.

F-TECH Workwear is proud to be the sole distributor for Shikibo Japan in Australia. We already provide a range of PPC garments direct to industry, which we’ll be adding to going forward.
