High visibility clothing
22 July 2016
Danish company F. Engel offers a wide choice of high visibility safety workwear in accordance with the new International and European standardisation EN ISO 20 471.
With customers’ safety as the company’s prime concern, each item of warning-clothing is produced with the largest possible fluorescent and reflective areas thus ensuring the safest levels of visibility both day and night. LOXY high visibility reflector tape, proven for its hard wearing and effective performance, is used throughout the range.
Most garments are made with a high specification of polyester and cotton mix to give long term durability and provide a comfortable fit, giving stretch and freedom of movement. Practical details include concealed zip and stud fastenings for added weather protection, and secure, functional pockets. Linings made from a new, soft and durable blended fabric of 70% polyester/30% cotton with a 100% filament yarn warp and a mixed fibre weft, provide inner warmth.
Most items have a water, oil and dirt repellent finish and the fabrics have been tested to comply with the new EN ISO standards to over 50 industrial or domestic wash cycles.
