HELLY TECH® WATERPROOF & BREATHABLE
Who´s it for?
Anyone who works both indoors and outdoors, and wants the best performance outerwear garment available
Everybody who works outdoors knows the challenge. You want to keep dry in rain, snow and sleet, yet avoid perspiration and condensation. That is why Helly Hansen Workwear developed Helly Tech®, the unique fabric system used in our collection of waterproof, breathable garments. Today Helly Tech® garments are worn by workers in large and small companies all over the world. They include the Italian Railways, the Danish Postal Service and the Norwegian Police and Armed forces.
Keeps you Dry The garments in the Helly Tech® collection release condensation and perspiration, while keeping rain and snow out. More than 20 years of experience with waterproof garments that transport moisture, in addition to a thorough knowledge of materials and design, have ensured the production of first class garments. Helly Tech® fabrics are constructed either with a thin film that transports moisture or by applying several thin layers of polymers to the reverse side of the fabric. For all practical purposes both systems work well. They are equally efficient at releasing body moisture. At the same time the micro pores in the fabric are too small for water molecules to penetrate from outside. All seams are sealed to ensure that the whole garment is waterproof.
Superior in Tests Our know-how is demonstrated in our choice of the best materials and most advanced construction techniques. Yet it is still important for us to adapt the garments to different working conditions and requirements from the various industries. So, we offer Helly Tech® garments with different degrees of functionality at varying price ranges.

What´s the difference?
100% Waterproof
The collection consists of 100% waterproof PVC and PU coated garments, providing superior protection and durability. PVC coated garments have an extremely hard wearing coating and are resistant to water as well as most chemicals, acids and oils. PU coated garments are lighter, softer and more resistant to the cold. Our comprehensive collection includes waterproof garments made from different base textiles, designed for different needs. Woven cotton is more comfortable against the skin and reduces condensation. Knitted synthetic textiles offer lower weight and superior tear strength. The seam techniques HH Microweld™ and HH Seamseal™ make seams 100% waterproof and highly durable.
Our experience and competence allow us to produce waterproof garments with high functionality and quality in every detail. This is important as these garments are often worn in extreme work situations, on oil rigs or fishing boats, where quality directly affects the wearer´s well being, health and safety.
Exceed Test Requirements
All waterproof garments from Helly Hansen Workwear are tested and approved in accordance with EN 343. Our most robust collections greatly exceed the requirements, while others are lighter and more flexible are designed to meet less demanding conditions. You will also find waterproof garments with flame resistant properties (EN 531 and /or ASTM standards), as well as waterproof visibility clothing with fluorescent colours and reflective materials (EN 471).
