Collection: Type C Chainsaw Trousers for Arborists & Aerial Tree Work

Type C chainsaw trousers are built for arborists and tree surgeons working in the canopy, where standard front-protection trousers leave the rear leg exposed during climbing and aerial operations. Unlike Type A trousers, Type C provides full wrap-around leg protection — the correct specification for anyone ascending a tree with a chainsaw. All trousers in this collection are certified to EN ISO 11393, the current standard for chainsaw protective clothing (replacing EN 381-5), with Class 3 confirming cut resistance against chains running at up to 28 m/s — the highest rating available. Gustharts stocks Type C chainsaw trousers from Arbortec and Pfanner. Arbortec is a UK-based specialist in chainsaw PPE engineered specifically around the demands of tree surgery and arboriculture; Pfanner brings Austrian precision manufacturing to its professional climbing trouser range.
