The Portwest hi-vis sash is an essential tool for professionals who immediately need extra visibility during their daily tasks. This compact and lightweight safety accessory is specially designed to be worn quickly over regular workwear. Thanks to its bright color and reflection, this sash is ideal for short-term tasks along the road, on construction sites, or in warehouses where active signaling of employees is required.
For which tasks and sectors is this Portwest hi-vis sash most suitable?
This hi-vis sash is extremely suitable for logistics workers, road workers, and supervisors who temporarily need to stay in hazardous zones with moving traffic.
The model is designed for situations where full high-visibility clothing is not mandatory, but extra visibility is desired for safety. Thanks to its compact design, the sash can be quickly pulled over a jacket or sweater, making it perfect for inspectors and visitors who briefly enter a busy company location or construction site.
What does the EN 17353 Type B3 standard mean for this hi-vis sash?
The EN 17353 Type B3 standard indicates that this hi-vis sash is officially certified as protective equipment for medium-risk situations in low-light conditions.
Type B3 specifies that the product is equipped with reflective elements that help protect the wearer in the dark by reflecting the light from headlights. This makes the sash a reliable tool for evening and night work, unlike non-certified accessories that offer no guaranteed reflective value during professional use.
