High-Visibility Vests

Choose a High-Visibility Vest by Class and Intended Use

EN ISO 20471 specifies visibility requirements for high-visibility clothing and includes three classes based, among other factors, on the amount of fluorescent and retroreflective material. The required class should be determined through a risk assessment of the relevant work environment.

The assortment includes high-visibility vests in several classes. Basic Class 2 and Class 3 vests can be suitable when a lightweight visibility garment is needed over regular workwear, while other models feature a more task-oriented design.

Always verify the classification for the size being ordered. On some models, the class varies between sizes. For example, certain vests are classified as Class 1/2 or Class 2/3 depending on size.

Basic Vest, Softshell Vest, or Craftsman Vest

For workplaces that need to equip visitors, drivers, or temporary staff, simple high-visibility vests are available, including models sold in larger packs. For example, the Portwest C474 is available both individually and in packs of 10.

For everyday use, the range also includes softshell vests and craftsman vests. These can offer additional functionality compared to a basic vest, such as extra pockets and a more durable construction. For example, Blåkläder 3032 is a craftsman vest, while 3049 and 3091 are softshell models.

If the vest will be worn over a jacket or multiple layers, fit and sizing should also be considered. Use the product size guide and review the features and materials of the specific model before ordering.
