traje de protección metalizado
Explanation:
¿No será también para protegerse del calor? Ver página del Mº de Trabajo:
En caso de exposición a calor fuerte en forma de calor radiante, debe elegirse una prenda de protección de material textil metalizado (http://www.mtas.es/insht/practice/gp_rop.htm)
These aluminized suits are normally used where large amounts of radiant heat must be dealt with, such as when flammable liquids burn. They are usually found at airport and refinery fire departments. They have special reflective faceshields, hoods, gloves and boots. (http://www.feltonfire.com/clothing.html)
