Be seen in a waistcoat
June 1st 2008

Glow Safe used this year's Safety and Health Expo as the launch venue for a new range of longsleeved waistcoats.

Incorporating strips of Glowsafe material, the waistcoats enable wearers to be seen when outside in poor light conditions.

There are flashing strips of material on the front and a rear panel in which words such as First aid, Caution, Security etc can be placed.

The waistcoats are compliant with Class 3 of BS EN 471, relating to high visibility clothing. They come in two versions. One has a Velcro closure at the front; the other has a zip, reinforced with a Velcro closure.

They feature a small power pack that takes 4 x AAA batteries, and the company can also supply a kit so that the user simply plugs the waistcoat in to recharge if NiMh rechargeable batteries are used.

There is no dependency upon an external light source in order to be seen.
