Description
The Portwest PW318 hi-vis t-shirt is a high-quality and comfortable garment specially designed for professionals who need maximum visibility and high wearing comfort during their daily work. This model combines fluorescent material with reflective tape, ensuring you stand out immediately in high-risk work environments. Thanks to the short sleeves, this shirt provides the necessary cooling during warm working days, without having to compromise on your safety.
For which specific tasks and sectors is this hi-vis t-shirt from Portwest suitable?
This striking garment is ideally suited for work in construction, logistics, transport, and infrastructure. In these sectors, the risk of accidents due to limited visibility is high, making certified clothing necessary.
The orange version also complies with the strict railway standard RIS 3279 TOM Issue 2, which means the shirt can also be safely worn during work on or around the railway. The breathable cotton ensures long-lasting comfort during active shifts.
What does the EN ISO 20471 Class 2 certification mean for this hi-vis t-shirt?
The EN ISO 20471 Class 2 certification means that this garment offers an intermediate level of protection through a prescribed surface area of reflective and fluorescent material. This makes the shirt suitable for work along roads with a maximum speed of up to 50 kilometers per hour.
Unlike Class 1 clothing, which is only used for low-risk situations, this Class 2 certification provides sufficient visibility for most construction sites and logistics centers where vehicles and machines are active.
The smart combination of soft cotton on the inside and durable polyester on the outside guarantees an excellent fit and optimal moisture regulation.
