Product Overview

The Cooling Evaporative Vest is a specialised garment engineered for temperature regulation in demanding work environments. Constructed with advanced super absorbent fibres, this vest provides sustained cooling for several hours, making it an essential piece of equipment for heat management. Its lightweight design ensures that the cooling effect is achieved without the moisture transferring to the garments worn underneath, maintaining a professional appearance and comfort throughout the shift.

Key Features

  • Advanced super absorbent fibres provide prolonged cooling to help prevent heat exhaustion during extended periods of work.
  • The lightweight polyester shell ensures the vest remains comfortable and does not become cumbersome when activated with water.
  • Bird eye knit contrast fabric enhances breathability and allows for improved airflow around the torso.
  • A simple activation process allows for quick deployment when temperatures rise, ensuring immediate relief.

Design & Performance

This vest is manufactured with a 100% polyester shell, chosen for its durability and moisture-management properties. The internal filling consists of super absorbent fibres that hold moisture effectively to facilitate evaporative cooling over time. Despite its functional complexity, the fabric remains lightweight, ensuring the wearer is not burdened by excess weight. The inclusion of bird eye knit contrast fabric provides a modern aesthetic while serving the functional purpose of aiding ventilation in high-heat scenarios.

Customisation: Print & Embroidery

While this is a technical cooling garment, it remains an important part of your corporate identity. This vest is suitable for both print and embroidery, allowing you to maintain a professional look even in the heat. Embroidery is an excellent choice for a superior finish for company logos or staff names, ensuring your branding is durable and resilient. For larger, more vibrant designs that require maximum visibility, printing is a highly effective alternative. All customisation is handled by our expert in-house team at our Telford facility, drawing on expertise dating back to 1976.

Use Cases

This garment is designed for professionals working in high-temperature environments, such as construction sites during the summer, foundries, or warehouses with limited ventilation. It is a vital tool for those who must maintain focus and safety in conditions where heat stress is a persistent risk.

Practical Advice

To achieve the best results, ensure the vest is activated correctly before your work day begins. This garment is designed with a regular fit; however, as it may be worn over other clothing, you should ensure the L/XL sizing provides sufficient room for comfortable movement. Layering this over moisture-wicking base layers will further enhance the cooling effect and overall comfort.

Caring for your product

Maintaining the performance of the super absorbent fibres is essential for the longevity of this garment. Regular care according to instructions will ensure the cooling properties remain effective for as long as possible.

This vest must be hand washed only. The mechanical action of a washing machine can damage the delicate internal absorbent filling and the bird eye knit structure, leading to a loss of cooling performance.

Do not use bleach, as this will degrade the polyester fibres and cause discolouration. Similarly, do not dry clean the garment, as chemical solvents can impair the moisture-holding capacity of the technical filling.

The vest should be drip line dried only. Subjecting the garment to the high heat of a tumble dryer can cause the synthetic components to shrink or melt. For the same reason, do not iron the garment, as direct heat will damage the fabric integrity.

Please note that the technical cooling functionality is rated for a maximum of 20 washes. Beyond this point, the effectiveness of the absorbent fibres may begin to diminish, and replacement should be considered to ensure continued protection against heat.
