The set includes a jacket insulated with sintepon and fleece, a coat and two pairs of pants, the uniform is designed for temperatures down to -20 °C.

According to Oleh Astafiev, director of labor protection and industrial safety of Zaporizhstal, the other day Zaporizhia steelmakers handed over the first batch of this aid – about 200 sets. They have already been sent to the soldiers of the Zaporizhia separate territorial defense brigade.
