Hi Viz Long Sleeve Reflective Safety Vest EN ISO 20471 Class 2
Superior Visibility
Fluorescent Colors: Available in striking fluorescent yellow and orange, these colors are specifically designed to stand out against most backgrounds, providing maximum visibility during the day. The vibrant hues ensure that you are easily seen from a distance, reducing the risk of accidents and enhancing your safety.
Reflective Strips: The vest features two horizontal and two vertical reflective strips strategically placed on the front, back, and sides. These high-quality reflective strips are designed to catch and reflect light from various sources, such as vehicle headlights, street lamps, and even flashlights. The combination of horizontal and vertical strips creates a 360-degree visibility profile, ensuring that you are seen from all angles, even in low-light conditions like dawn, dusk, or night.
Comfort and Durability
Breathable Material: Crafted from 120gsm 100% polyester warp-knitted fabric, this vest offers excellent breathability. The fabric allows for air circulation, keeping you comfortable and preventing overheating, even during extended periods of wear. It is lightweight and flexible, allowing for a full range of motion without any discomfort.
Long Sleeve Design: The long sleeve design provides additional protection and coverage for your arms. It helps to shield your skin from potential hazards such as scratches, abrasions, and harmful UV rays. The sleeves also enhance the visibility of the reflective strips, ensuring that your arms are visible at all times.
Hook and Loop Front Closure: The vest features a secure hook and loop front closure, allowing for a quick and easy way to put on and take off the vest. The closure ensures a snug and comfortable fit, keeping the vest securely in place during your activities. It also allows for easy adjustments to accommodate different body sizes and shapes.
The Hi Viz Long Sleeve Reflective Safety Vest EN ISO 20471 Class 2 complies with the EN ISO 20471 Class 3 standard through several key features and design elements. Here's how it meets the requirements:
Fluorescent Background Material
Minimum Area: The vest must have a minimum of 0.80 square meters (1,240 square inches) of fluorescent background material. This extensive area ensures that the wearer is highly visible during the day, as the fluorescent material stands out against most backgrounds.
Color Compliance: The vest is available in fluorescent yellow and orange, which are approved colors under the EN ISO 20471 standard
These colors are specifically chosen for their ability to contrast with various environments, making the wearer easily noticeable.
Retroreflective Material
Minimum Area: The vest features two horizontal and two vertical reflective strips, providing a total retroreflective material area of at least 0.20 square meters (310 square inches). This amount of reflective material significantly enhances visibility in low-light conditions and at night.
Placement and Width: The reflective strips are strategically placed on the front, back, and sleeves of the vest. Each strip is at least 50 mm (2 inches) wide, ensuring that they are visible from various angles and distances. The placement on the sleeves is particularly important, as it allows for visibility even when the arms are extended or moving.
Design Requirements
Long Sleeve Design: The vest includes long sleeves, which are a requirement for Class 3 compliance when covering the torso and arms. This design not only provides additional protection but also ensures that the reflective strips on the sleeves are visible, contributing to the overall visibility profile.
Hook and Loop Closure: The vest features a hook and loop front closure, ensuring that it is worn correctly and securely. Proper closure is essential for maintaining compliance, as an open vest would reduce the visible area of the fluorescent material
Additional Compliance Factors
Joint Certification: The vest may be part of a jointly certified ensemble that meets Class 3 requirements when worn with other compatible high-visibility garments. This flexibility allows for combinations that provide the necessary coverage and visibility
Quality and Durability: The 120gsm 100% polyester warp-knitted fabric used in the vest is designed to withstand the rigors of daily use while maintaining its reflective and fluorescent properties. This ensures that the vest remains compliant over time
By adhering to these specifications, the Hi Viz Long Sleeve Reflective Safety Vest ensures that wearers are provided with the highest level of visibility and protection in high-risk environments, meeting the stringent requirements of the EN ISO 20471 Class 3 standard.
