Description
This Portwest hi-vis vest is a high-quality solution for professionals who need optimal visibility and cooling during their daily tasks. The functional design has been specifically developed for active work environments where safety requirements are strict and comfort is a must. Thanks to the lightweight materials, you can wear this protective clothing effortlessly over your regular workwear, ensuring you stay well-protected and comfortable throughout the entire working day.
For which specific work environments is this hi-vis vest certified?
This safety vest is certified according to the EN ISO 20471 Class 2 standard, which means it offers excellent visibility in high-risk work environments such as construction and logistics. The orange version also meets the strict RIS 3279 TOM Issue 2 standard.
This specific railway standard sets stringent requirements for the fluorescent color and reflection, making the vest officially approved for work on and around the tracks. This ensures you have an approved design that meets all legal safety requirements within the railway sector.
How does the material of this hi-vis vest help prevent overheating?
The vest is made of special MeshAir cooling mesh fabric, an innovative material that ensures a constant airflow around the body. Unlike closed polyester fabrics, this open mesh weave allows heat and moisture to escape quickly.
This makes the model extremely suitable for heavy physical labor during hot summer days or in confined indoor spaces. You stay noticeably cooler and more productive without having to compromise on your personal safety or the mandatory visibility on the work floor.
