High Visibility polo shirt
A high visibility polo shirt is specially designed for professionals working in sectors where standing out is vital. This includes construction, logistics, or road work. Thanks to the fluorescent fabrics and retroreflective striping, every high visibility polo shirt meets the strict European EN ISO 20471 standard.
With this high-vis polo shirt, you are optimally visible to your surroundings both during the day and at night. This type of high visibility clothing significantly reduces the risk of accidents. Moreover, the breathable material offers great comfort during active workdays outdoors.
What is the difference between a reflective polo shirt and a high visibility polo shirt?
In practice, a reflective polo shirt and a high visibility polo shirt are simply synonyms. Different terms are used to denote exactly the same type of safety clothing.
Both variants must comply with exactly the same strict legal requirements and European safety standards. Whether you call it a high-vis polo shirt or a reflective shirt, the focus is always on maximum visibility.
What requirements does a reflective shirt meet?
A reflective shirt must comply with the strict EN ISO 20471 standard, the European standard forhigh visibility clothing. This standard is divided into three classes, with class 3 offering the highest level of visibility.
For work along roads (including motorways), it is often mandatory for the entire outfit to meet class 3. Since a single polo shirt is usually class 1 or class 2, it must be combined with class 1 or class 2 work trousers. More details about these safety classes can be found on our page about theEN ISO 20471 standard.
What other requirements can reflective polo shirts meet?
In addition to the standard visibility requirements, polo shirts can meet supplementary standards. A well-known example is the RWS polo shirt, which is specifically designed according to Rijkswaterstaat (Dutch Directorate-General for Public Works and Water Management) guidelines for working along railways and roads.
There are also multi-norm polo shirts that, besides reflection, also have flame-retardant and antistatic properties for high-risk environments. Protection against harmful solar radiation according to the UV protection standard EN 13758-2 is also common. A complete overview of all certifications can be found on the page aboutworkwear standards.
