Insulated Hi-Vis Workwear – Stay Warm and Visible All Winter Long

Why High Visibility Insulated Clothing Is Crucial in Winter Work
Winter weather brings increased risk: fog, snow, and early nightfall reduce visibility, while cold air leads to stiffness, loss of dexterity, and potential hypothermia. High visibility insulated clothing combats both issues. It uses bright fluorescent fabric with wide reflective strips, and includes insulating layers to protect workers from freezing temperatures.
Our reflective winter clothing includes certified garments that meet EN ISO 20471 for visibility and EN 342 for thermal insulation. This makes them ideal for road crews, railway staff, warehouse operatives, and even outdoor mechanics. To ensure comfort and long wear life, our work jackets are also windproof, breathable, and resistant to rain or snow.
