In today’s world of increasingly distracted drivers, struck-by hazards know no season – they’re a year-round problem. That’s why Ergodyne introduced another innovation solution to its Foul Weather Gear Series today with the GloWear® 8388 Type R Class 3/2 Thermal Jacket Kit.
According to Frost and Sullivan’s North American Industrial Protective Clothing Market Forecast to 2020, apparel with multiple protective functionalities is becoming increasingly popular.
Radians’ Quilted Reversible 4-in-1 insulated Ripstop jacket provides superior, cross-seasonal comfort and weather protection. Radians’ RadWear® SJ510 is an ultra-lightweight and versatile jacket that reverses from dark, low-profile grey to a Class 3 Hi-Viz yellow jacket with reflective tape. The zippered sleeves can be easily removed converting the jacket into a Class 2 vest or a non-rated stylish quilted black vest, a popular wardrobe essential.
Ergodyne added new products to its GloWear® Hi-Vis Apparel Line in preparation for summer outdoor work. These new garments provide ANSI-compliant visibility to prevent struck-by accidents and are packed with features to help workers beat the heat. Each item is made of as an ANSI-compliant polyester breathable knit for heat stress management along with other unique features.
The TruGuard™ 250 Hi-Vis FR Cotton Jacket and Vest from Black Stallion® are the first value-priced FR-treated 100% cotton garments with ANSI/ISEA 107-2015 high-visibility compliance, designed specifically for the welding, safety, and industrial markets. The flame-resistant reflective striping on both garments meets ANSI/ISEA standards and the unique stripe configuration on the back maximizes the available print area to customize with a graphic or company logo.
Westex UltraSoft®, flame resistant (FR) fabric wearers know and trust, is now offered in an ANSI 107 certified high visibility yellow for critical visibility conditions. Westex UltraSoft® high-vis is UL-certified to NFPA 2112, meets NFPA 70E PPE Category 2, and is guaranteed flame resistant for the life of the garment.
Workers in utility and oil and gas industries have specific needs for high-visibility and FR protection on the job. They operate in areas with large amounts of electrically charged equipment and flammable materials, often during nighttime and in complex settings.
Would you allow your workers to wear safety glasses that covered one eye, glove for one hand or fall protection that had a 33% chance of failing? It sounds so ridiculous! We would never use anything that only protects us part of the time...right???
