Sioen – Comfortable and protective clothing for women
Sioen – Comfortable and protective clothing for women
Although the workforce is predominantly male in fields like construction, energy, the (petro)chemical and the steel industry, you will find more and more women at work in these industries. But unfortunately, for a long time the women’s choice of garments was limited to men’s workwear and that is just not quite the same.As women have a different body shape, men’s clothing is just not that comfortable for women.
Designed for women
That’s not rocket science I hear you say. Well, you’re right, it isn’t. The reasons why it hasn’t been done way sooner are multiple. For starters, women have only had access to some traditional male occupations for the past decades. When they did, no one really bothered when a jacket or pair of trousers was ill fitted – usually women tended to look like walking tents or like bags at best.
Madame Sioen, our founder who suddenly deceased in the beginning of this year, did care. She steered our company as a true “mater familias”, empowering women for years until she retired in 2014. She pushed our teams to create professional protective clothing for women ever since the very beginning.
At Sioen, we insist on bringing garments for women on the market. Regardless of the costs. Our range is extensive and smart, allowing women to combine the best fit with the best protection.
Multinmorm: Kasie and Lesha
Sioen therefore decided to focus on the needs of women in the industry: protective workwear that is fitted to their shape. The perfect examples of such protective clothing are the Kasie and the Lesha. Those types of jackets and trousers protect women in a comfortable way against the risks of an electrical flashover. The primary concern for people that have been exposed to an electrical arc flash is very serious skin burns due to the high heat that is set free during such an arc flash. The Kasie and the Lesha are the perfect protective clothing for those power women who stand their ground in a hazardous working environment.
