Premium Protection. All-Season Comfort. Locally Made.

The Vulcan Workwear D59 Flame & Acid Winter Jacket is a locally manufactured, high-performance safety garment, purpose-built to keep workers warm, protected, and visible in cold and hazardous environments. Proudly made in Southern Africa with Da Gama Textiles D59 drill fabric, this jacket combines flame and acid resistance with thermal insulation for year-round reliability.

Designed with a 100% cotton satin weave finish, the jacket offers natural breathability and comfort during extended wear, while its flame-acid garment treatment technology provides reliable protection against accidental flame contact and acid splashes.
