Dassy Material Quality Information

DASSY Fabric Quality Information

The core of DASSY workwear lies in its fabric. That is why strict quality requirements are set early on, at the selection of the fabrics, which are subsequently subject to a multitude of tests to achieve the best result. This resolute approach results in durable, hard-wearing and colourfast fabrics, in which comfort and design are of fundamental importance as well.

DASSY professional workwear has been certified with the Oeko-tex® standard 100 Class II label. This means that a garment carrying this label has been tested against harmful substances. All the raw material used without exception meet the Oeko-Tex® standards. This label is easy to recognize and a sign of confidence for the wearer.

Durable Fabrics

back to top

Cordura®
PA 05 – PA 06

An outstanding fabric for exceptionally strong and long-lasting workwear. The polyamide fibre found in Cordura® fabric ensures a superior durability. Moreover, an additional treatment makes it water- and dirt-repellent, for extra comfort and low maintenance. DASSY uses this fabric to reinforce clothing, where risk of abrasion is the highest, making crucial parts such as knee pockets, elbow patches, chest and leg pockets stronger and even more hard-wearing.

Canvas, Polyester-Cotton
PESCO 25 – 65% polyester – 35% cotton, +/- 295 g/m²

Extremely tough and known for its superior durability, thanks to a specific blend of polyester and cotton. The slight horizontal mechanical stretch offers additional freedom of movement and comfort. In addition, the finish on the inside makes the fabric even softer. A tough, rugged look is obtained through its specific weave and maintained through a high colour fastness. With an optimal fabric weight of +/- 295 g/m², this fabric is pleasant to wear in summertime as well as during the winter. In short, a great deal of advantages combined into one nice-looking fabric.

Cotton
CO 43 – 100% cotton, +/- 320 g/m²

This cotton variant is used to extend the DASSY work trousers collections. Clothing manufactured from cotton always has a very comfortable feel by nature. In addition, the insulation and ventilation properties constitute added value for work clothing applications. CO 43, the cotton variant used, guarantees a stronger and durable fabric, which benefits the life span of the cotton piece of clothing. When purchasing cotton clothing please always take into account the susceptibility to shrinkage during the first washes.


Water-Performance Fabrics

Laminated canvas
PES 90, 100% polyester – laminated, +/- 240 g/m²

Thanks to the positive waterproof, windproof and breathable characteristics, this type of canvas fabric is perfectly suited for the DASSY DNA Austin winter jacket. The outer layer of polyester is water-repellent and laminated with a waterproof and breathable membrane. This means that water and wind cannot penetrate from the outside and your body temperature is ideally maintained while transpiration moisture can escape. The result: a fabric that allows you to continue to work comfortably in rain or snow for a longer period of time.

WR: 10.000mm – MVP: 7000g/m²/24h

Coated polyester
PES 70, 100% polyester – polyurethane coating, +/- 200 g/m²

This high-performance fabric is perfectly suited for the DASSY Atlantis high-visibility parka and the Bilbao high-visibility body warmer after a fluorescent treatment. The waterproof seams and this type of canvas fabric guarantee sound protection against the rain. “To coat” means to cover with a finishing layer or “top coat”. This process ensures that the fabric is both waterproof and windproof while transpiration moisture can still evaporate. This breathability reduces the risk of heating or moisture accumulation and enables you to continue to work comfortably even during long working hours.

certified EN343:2003+A1:2007 – class 3

Three-layered fleece
PES 28, 100% polyester, +/- 350 g/m²

Not just any fleece fabric. This fleece not only has a high insulation level, as a result of which body temperature is maintained in an excellent manner, but the advanced three-layer structure also ensures that the fabric is waterproof, windproof and especially breathable. So wind and rain can’t penetrate while transpiration moisture actually can ventilate. This prevents moisture accumulation or heating and keeps the wearer dry at any given time.

WR: 4000mm – MVP: 2000g/m²/24h

LAMINATED POLYESTER FABRIC (OXFORD WEAVE)
PES 80, 100% polyester – TPU laminated, +/- 200 g/m²

This fabric in 100% polyester is laminated with a waterproof and breathable TPU (Thermoplastic plyurethane) membrane. This means that water and wind cannot penetrate from the outside, an indispensable quality for the DASSY D-FX Hyper wind-and waterproof jacket. Moreover, the membrane makes it still possible for transpiration moisture to evaporate. This prevents heating and moisture accumulation and enables you to continue to work comfortably.

WR: 5000mm – MVP: 5000g/m²/24h

Softshell
PES 21, 100% polyester, +/- 280 g/m²
PES 74, 100% polyester, +/- 310 g/m²

DASSY makes use of a three-layered softshell fabric for a new generation of advanced outdoor clothing: even more flexible, more breathable and more comfortable. This supple fabric is slightly elastic and provides appropriate freedom of movement. The combination with fleece lining on the inside guarantees a higher level of insulation and breathability. The three-layered structure of the fabric consists of an external and an internal material as well as a breathable membrane applied in between. This means the fabric is windproof and waterproof while transpiration moisture can still escape. This prevents moisture accumulation or heating, as a result of which the carrier can stay dry and continue to work.

WR: 5000mm – MVP: 5000g/m²/24h

Beaver fabric
PESCO 17, 70% polyester – 30% cotton, +/- 240 g/m²

The special method of weaving this fabric brings the cotton on the inside and the polyester on the outside. The fabric is slightly shiny and smooth which makes it very dirt-repellent. The fabric is also very strong, colourfast, easy to clean, fast drying and crease-resistant. DASSY opted for a Teflon®treatment which makes the clothes in this quality water-repellent.

WR: 2000mm
