Which tasks is this Portwest hi-vis bodywarmer suitable for?
This garment is ideally suited for work in construction, logistics, and road maintenance, where good visibility is crucial for safety. The orange version also meets the strict RIS 3279 TOM standard, making it specifically approved for the British rail industry.
Thanks to the water-repellent finish, rainwater beads off the fabric, making the bodywarmer ideal for changing outdoor conditions. The soft Insulatex lining effectively retains body heat, ensuring you remain comfortable and protected even on cold working days.
What do the EN ISO 20471 classes mean for this hi-vis bodywarmer?
