The Personal Protective Wear 2 Metre hi-viz vest is a lightweight and functional safety garment designed to provide both high visibility and clear communication of safety protocols. Constructed from resilient polyester, this waistcoat is an essential addition to any professional environment where keeping personnel seen and separated is a priority. It serves as a practical solution for businesses needing to reinforce safety messages without sacrificing compliance.
This waistcoat is manufactured from a lightweight polyester fabric that offers a balance between durability and comfort. The material is designed to withstand the rigours of daily work while remaining light enough to be worn over standard work clothing without causing overheating. The self-coloured piping adds a clean finish to the garment's edges, preventing fraying and extending its service life in active environments.
The reflective tapes are strategically positioned to ensure the wearer is identifiable as a human shape, which is a critical safety factor on busy sites or in warehouse settings. The hook and loop system is chosen for its simplicity and reliability, ensuring the vest stays closed even during active movement, while the 100% polyester composition ensures the fluorescent colour remains vibrant over time.
While this waistcoat comes with a pre-printed safety message on the back, there is ample space for further customisation to align with your corporate identity. Our Telford-based team, with expertise dating back to 1976, can apply your company logo via embroidery or print to the front panels.
Embroidery is an excellent choice for a professional, long-lasting finish, typically applied to the chest area to identify staff members. For larger, bold graphics or additional site-specific information, our high-quality printing services ensure your branding is sharp and clear. All customisation is handled in-house to maintain our rigorous quality standards and ensure your team looks the part.
This garment is specifically suited for workers in construction, logistics, and public-facing roles where both visibility and social distancing are paramount. It is equally effective for event staff, warehouse operatives, or site visitors who require temporary high-visibility protection while moving through hazardous or busy areas.

The size range extends from Small (36/38") to 2XL (52/54"). When selecting your size, consider what you will be wearing underneath. If this waistcoat is to be worn over a heavy winter jacket or a thick sweatshirt, we recommend selecting one size larger than your standard measurement to ensure a comfortable fit and full range of movement.
To maintain the high-visibility performance and structural integrity of this waistcoat, it is essential to follow the specific care guidelines. Proper maintenance ensures the reflective elements continue to meet safety standards for as long as possible, keeping your team safe on the job.
We recommend a maximum washing temperature of 40°C. Exceeding this temperature can damage the polyester fibres and cause the reflective tapes to peel or crack over time. Please note that this garment is limited to a maximum of 25 wash cycles to ensure the reflective properties remain compliant with safety regulations; once this limit is reached, the garment should be replaced.
Do not use bleach, as harsh chemicals will degrade the fluorescent dyes in the fabric, reducing its visibility in daylight. Similarly, this garment should not be tumble dried or ironed; the heat from these processes can melt the synthetic fabric and destroy the reflective tapes. Finally, do not dry clean or use industrial laundering, as these processes are too aggressive for this lightweight safety garment and will compromise its protective features.
