At Unishore Workwear, you'll find a wide selection of top brands like Havep, Tricorp, and Hydrowear.

What requirements should RWS rainwear meet?

RWS rainwear must comply with Rijkswaterstaat guidelines and the EN 20471 standard with combined Class 3, ensuring optimal visibility along busy roads and in poor weather conditions. Waterproofing and breathability are also important for comfortable working. Our blog about RWS workwear provides more background information and tips for making the right choice.

EN 343 and RWS rainwear

In addition to the high-visibility requirements, RWS rainwear must also meet the EN 343 standard. This standard indicates that the clothing offers protection against rain, snow, and wet conditions. An RWS rain jacket or rain trousers that are EN 343-certified will keep you dry and comfortable during extended work in the rain.

The various rainwear that meets RWS requirements

RWS rainwear is available in various styles, tailored to your work and the conditions. You can choose from jackets, trousers, and overalls, all of which meet Rijkswaterstaat's requirements.

RWS raincoats and work jackets

An RWS raincoat is ideal for road workers who want to remain flexible during their work. For added comfort, there are also work jackets suitable for extended periods of rain, often with a breathable lining and waterproof seams.
