Product catalog summary
Overview
Lakeland ALM® aluminised garments provide high-quality protection against convective, radiant, and contact heat, suitable for industries like foundries and steel processing. The garments use Gentex “Dual Mirror”® technology to reflect 95% of heat radiation, enhancing safety and comfort.

Specifications
The garments are available in three fabric options: ALM® 300, ALM® 500, and ALM® 700, each offering different layers for moisture and thermal protection. They are certified under EN 11612 for heat and flame protection and EN 11611 for welding processes.

Heat Performance
Heat performance is measured using the Heat Transfer Index (HTI), indicating the time to reach a specific temperature rise behind the fabric. ALM® 700 exceeds the highest class in all heat tests, offering superior protection.

Testing and Certification
CE tests measure protection against molten metal splashes and heat types: convective, radiant, and contact. ALM® garments are tested for these, with ALM® 700 showing exceptional results.

Product Range
Garments are available as complete ensembles or individual components, including jackets, pants, hoods, gloves, and boots. Accessories like sleeves and aprons are also offered.

Recommendations
Users should conduct a risk assessment to determine the appropriate garment choice. Garments must be kept clean to maintain reflectivity and protective properties.

Warnings
ALM® suits are not designed for fire entry. CE tests do not specify safe use duration or application suitability, which should be determined by a qualified risk analysis.

Lakeland ALM®-1

Lakeland ALM® aluminised garments offer high quality protection against convective, radiant and contact heat for workers in industries such as foundries, steel processing, glass and ceramics manufacture and many others. Using superior Gentex “Dual Mirror”® technology the pure aluminium mirrored outer surface reflects 95% or more of heat radiation*. This means less of the radiated heat penetrates through the fabric, allowing operators in heatcritical environments to work for longer and to maintain safety at the highest level. Available in three fabric choices and a range of standard and bespoke garments, Lakeland ALM® offers the choices to ensure workers remain safe in a variety of applications. * Aluminium has a reflectivity in the infra-red spectrum of 93 to 97%.

Lakeland ALM®-2

ALM® - Industrial Heat Protective Clothing and Accessories Buyer’s Guide The primary purpose of aluminised garments is to protect workers from the radiant heat present in some common industrial environments. Burns result when skin absorbs heat energy: the more rapid the temperature rise the greater the damage. ALM® garments work by minimising the heat energy that penetrates through to the skin beneath. The pure aluminium surface of Lakeland ALM® garments means up to 95% of heat energy radiation is reflected away from the wearer. This is why in CE heat testing all three ALM® fabric options achieve...

Protect Your People Heat Types and CE Tests The EN 11612 standard for flame and heat protection includes optional (only 1 is compulsory) tests against various heat types. Those most relevant for Lakeland ALM® garments are the radiant (Code C), Convective (Code b) and Contact (Code E) These tests assess the time to record a rise in temperature (24oC in B and C, 10oC in F) in a heat sensor held behind the fabric. ALM® 300 and 500 have also been tested against splashes of molten aluminium (Code D) and molten iron (Code E). These tests measure the volume in grams of molten metal required to cause...
