The Next Generation of Protection: What to Expect from ProGARM Gen 2 PPE Collection
Everything we do at ProGARM starts with one simple question: how can we make our products work even harder for the people who wear them?
That’s why we’re so proud to introduce the brand-new Gen 2 collection, an evolution of our existing products, built from the ground up with the people who rely on them every day.
We listen to what our customers say
Over the last few years, we’ve been listening closely to feedback from our customers, from the technicians working long shifts on site to the safety managers responsible for protecting entire teams. We really used it to paint the full picture of what would be their ideal PPE: keep the protection uncompromising, but make the clothing lighter, more comfortable, and easier to wear through long hours.
Well, you asked, and we listened. The Gen 2 collection is the direct result of that feedback.
Using smart fabrics with the same level of protection
Arc Flash and flame-resistant protection is non-negotiable. So while the Gen 2 collection carries the same trusted protection ratings, it’s been re-engineered with smarter, stronger fabrics to create workwear that feels noticeably lighter on your back, but heavy on protection.
- Thinner and lighter – reducing heavy and bulky materials without losing strength.
- Stronger than ever – fabrics designed to withstand the toughest environments.
- Cooler to wear – improved breathability for comfort in all conditions.
Available to meet global standards
A first for ProGARM, we’re also proud to introduce an APC 1/APC 2 range, specifically designed to meet European protection standards under IEC 61482-2. Each piece has been created to deliver the same Gen 2 benefits, comfort, mobility, and strength, while ensuring compliance with the latest European arc flash requirements.
First Look: Gen 2 T-Shirts
The first of the collection to launch, our Gen 2 T-shirts, have already been a game-changer for wearers. Built with the same lightweight, high-performance fabric, they deliver the freedom of movement and comfort that’s been asked for.
“They feel lighter, more comfortable, softer against the skin.”
“The team really like these new tops, the feedback has been great.”
“The team all love the yellow 8 cal top.”
“The t-shirt is one of the best I have tried in over 25 years in the industry.”
“Excellent fit, not too tight nor too baggy, the material is soft and also stretchy and breathable.”
And this is only the start.
So… what’s next?
Our APC 1 & APC 2 range is now available to buy after launching at A+A in Dusseldorf this week. You can see the full collection here.
The complete Gen 2 collection will be coming to distributors and available to buy in the UK on our website in January 2026, but our t-shirts and polo shirts are available now. Find out more here.
