Description
The Portwest hi-vis work trousers, model CD857, are an environmentally conscious and functional choice for professionals operating in high-risk work environments. These trousers are specifically designed for wearers who need to combine excellent visibility with maximum freedom of movement during their daily tasks. Thanks to the use of certified recycled fabric, this model offers a sustainable solution for various sectors without compromising on necessary safety performance.
For which tasks are these Portwest hi-vis work trousers most suitable?
These trousers are ideally suited for work in road and hydraulic engineering, logistics, and transport where good visibility is crucial. The orange variant also meets the RIS 3279 TOM Issue 2 standard, making it specifically approved for the British rail industry.
The model offers optimal protection at dusk and in situations with passing traffic. Thanks to the dirt- and water-repellent Texpel Stain Eco finish, the trousers remain clean and professional even under heavy, muddy working conditions.
What does the EN ISO 20471 Class 2 certification mean for these hi-vis work trousers?
The EN ISO 20471 Class 2 certification indicates that these trousers offer a medium level of protection through reflective strips and fluorescent material. This makes the trousers suitable for work along roads with a speed limit of up to 50 kilometers per hour.
Unlike class 1, this class 2 certification offers significantly higher visibility, which considerably improves the wearer's safety during daylight, dusk, and darkness while working.
The trousers are equipped with an elastic waistband, four convenient storage pockets including zippered pockets, and an adjustable hem for flexible leg length.
