hi vis jackets
Leading the way in hi vis workwear for enhanced safety across all industries
Innovating and manufacturing hi vis clothing, designed for optimal comfort, durability, and superior visibility in demanding work environments
leading manufacturers in hi vis jackets
Our high-visibility jackets are engineered for visibility, comfort, and all-day wear—ideal for environments where being seen is critical, from rail and highways to utilities and industrial sites.
Crafted using makalu, our high-performance stretch fabric, each garment is soft, breathable, and designed to support natural movement—particularly around the shoulders and arms. Practical features include durable zips, elasticated panels where it matters, and smartly placed pockets for on-the-job functionality. Retroreflective tape enhances 360° visibility while maintaining a modern, ergonomic fit.
Our jackets are available in options that meet EN ISO 20471 for high-visibility clothing and RIS-3279-TOM for rail industry compliance. Designed for both male and female wearers, we can manufacture across a range of sizes and proportions to ensure the right fit.
While we offer a stocked selection, our core capability lies in custom-made solutions—developed in partnership with leading organisations to meet specific requirements around safety, branding, and wearer needs. If your workforce needs comfort without compromise, we’re here to help.

frequently asked questions
This depends on the environment and the risks present. In general, base layers should be comfortable, breathable, and suitable for the working conditions. In some cases—such as when additional protection against flame, arc flash, or cold is needed—appropriate underlayers may also need to meet specific protective standards. Always consult your risk assessment or safety manager to ensure compliance with your organisation’s PPE policy.
Hi-vis jackets are commonly certified to EN ISO 20471, which includes Class 2 or Class 3 garments depending on the surface area of fluorescent and reflective material. Some hi-vis jackets may also comply with RIS-3279-TOM for rail industry requirements in the UK. Always check the specific garment label or technical file for confirmation of classification and intended use.
Hi-vis jackets are used in a wide range of sectors where visibility is critical for safety. These include:
- Construction and infrastructure
- Rail and road transport
- Utilities and energy
- Logistics and warehousing
- Waste and environmental services
Exact requirements may vary by job role, site policy, and local regulations. Always carry out a risk assessment to determine what’s needed.
If your team operates in low-light conditions, near moving vehicles or machinery, or in environments where visibility is important for safety, hi-vis jackets may be required. A formal risk assessment should always be used to determine whether hi-vis garments are appropriate, and if so, which type and classification are needed.
The primary standard for high-visibility garments is:
- EN ISO 20471 – Specifies requirements for fluorescent material, retroreflective tape, and overall visibility.
For the rail sector in the UK, garments may also need to meet:
- RIS-3279-TOM – A rail-specific standard for high-visibility clothing.
Other standards may apply depending on combined protection (e.g. anti-static or flame-retardant functionality), so always check the garment certification to ensure suitability.
Hi-vis garments should be regularly inspected for signs of wear, such as fading, damage to reflective tape, or deterioration of fabric. If visibility or protective performance is compromised, the garment should be replaced. The replacement schedule will vary based on use, environment, and company policy, so always follow your organisation’s PPE guideline
Yes—this is an area where Alsico excels. We specialise in designing and manufacturing custom-made hi-vis garments for some of the UK’s largest organisations. Our in-house teams can adapt everything from fit, sizing, and pocket configurations to fabric combinations and brand-specific colourways—always with wearer comfort and functionality in mind.
