Buy high visibility jackets | EN ISO 20471

Class 2 or class 3?

Class 3 offers the most protection and is suitable for work close to the roadway, such as for road workers; class 2 is often sufficient further from traffic. Combine the jacket with trousers from our High visibility collection for the highest class.

Combining with a vest

For extra flexibility, combine the jacket with a separate high-visibility vest, handy to quickly put on over other clothing during short outdoor tasks.

Frequently asked questions

Which class of high-visibility jacket do I need?

For work close to the roadway, class 3 is often mandatory; further from traffic, class 2 is usually sufficient. Check your employer's risk assessment.

Can I combine the jacket with a vest?

Yes, a separate high-visibility vest is handy to quickly put on over other clothing for extra visibility.

How often can I wash a hi-vis jacket?

It says so on the label: the manufacturer states after how many washes the jacket still meets its class, often indicated next to the EN ISO 20471 pictogram. Wash at the stated temperature, inside out and without bleach. If the fluorescent material looks dull or blotchy, replacing it is wiser than continuing to wash it.

May I have a logo printed on a hi-vis jacket?

Yes, as long as the logo does not reduce the required area of fluorescent and reflective material too much. A large logo or a print over the reflective stripes can cause the jacket to no longer meet its class. So have printing done by a company with experience in certified clothing, and keep the reflection clear.
