At Barton & Co, we understand the importance of staying protected from the elements when working outdoors. Whether it’s a construction site, roadworks, or industrial maintenance, wet weather can present a major challenge to both productivity and safety. That’s why Burke Marine’s Super Dry range is a game-changer, not just for sailors but for workers in tough environments who need gear that’s waterproof, breathable, and built to last.
In this post, we explore the versatility of Burke Marine’s Super Dry Jacket and Trousers and why they’re quickly becoming a popular choice on worksites across Australia.

Purpose-Built Protection for Tough Conditions
Burke Marine is known for its high-performance wet-weather gear designed to handle the unpredictable challenges of maritime environments. This same durability and innovation make the Super Dry range perfect for use on construction sites, industrial facilities, and outdoor worksites. Just like on the water, workers on land need gear that keeps them dry, comfortable, and focused, no matter the conditions.
Key Features That Set the Super Dry Range Apart
1. Marine-Grade Waterproofing
On worksites, rain is more than just an inconvenience, it’s a productivity killer. Traditional rainwear might offer temporary relief, but it often fails in persistent or heavy rain. Burke Marine’s Super Dry Jacket and Trousers use high-performance waterproof technology with fully taped seams to block out even the most relentless downpours. Whether it’s a sudden shower or hours of steady rain, you’ll stay dry and comfortable all day.
2. Lightweight and Breathable for Hard Work
Wearing rain gear can often feel like a trade-off: stay dry but risk overheating. Not with the Super Dry range. Burke Marine’s breathable fabric technology ensures that moisture escapes from inside, preventing sweat buildup. This breathability makes it ideal for physically demanding jobs where staying cool and comfortable is essential to performance.
3. Tough Enough for Worksite Abuse
Construction sites are no place for delicate clothing. Equipment, tools, debris, and uneven terrain are all hazards for wet-weather gear. The Super Dry range is designed with rugged, abrasion-resistant materials to withstand the wear and tear of demanding jobs. From reinforced seams to heavy-duty zippers, this gear won’t quit when things get tough.
4. Designed for Mobility
Bulky, restrictive rain gear is a safety hazard on busy worksites, where workers need to move freely and efficiently. The Super Dry Jacket and Trousers are engineered for maximum flexibility, ensuring a full range of motion for lifting, bending, and climbing. The lightweight design means the gear feels less like an extra layer and more like a second skin.
5. All-Weather Versatility
The Super Dry range is not just for wet conditions. Its breathable materials also make it suitable for cool, dry days, where light protection from wind or early morning chills is needed. This versatility means you don’t have to constantly switch between different pieces of gear throughout the day, making it ideal for Australia’s changeable weather.
