Portwest PW311 High-Visibility T-Shirt: HiVisTex Pro™ Technology and UV Protection

The PW311 is a high-visibility t-shirt designed to offer a superior balance of comfort, safety, and style in demanding work environments. Made from a technical fabric composed of 55% cotton and 45% polyester, this garment ensures breathability and efficient moisture management, keeping the wearer cool and comfortable during long workdays.

Technical Features and Operational Capabilities

• HiVisTex Pro™ Reflective Tape: Incorporates high-quality, segmented, heat-sealed reflective tape technology, providing excellent freedom of movement without the stiffness of traditional tapes.
• Advanced Sun Protection: The garment's material blocks 98% of UV rays, offering an additional layer of protection against solar radiation for personnel exposed to the elements.
• International Safety Standards: Strictly complies with EN ISO 20471 Class 1 and ANSI/ISEA 107 Type O Class 1 standards, certifying its effectiveness in improving visibility in high-risk areas or low-light conditions.
• Ergonomic Design: This is a lightweight, stylish, and ventilated garment, ideal for professionals in sectors such as construction, logistics, maintenance, and road work.

Safety Warning and Limitations of Use

IMPORTANT: This garment is designed to improve the wearer's visual detection. It is NOT a protective garment against thermal risks (flame-retardant), it is not anti-static, and it does not offer protection against chemical or mechanical risks. It should not replace specialized protective equipment in environments with a risk of exposure to flames, sparks, or explosive atmospheres. Always verify that the visibility of the reflective tape is not obstructed by other safety elements or additional layers of clothing.

Maintenance and Care Instructions

• Washing: Machine wash with lukewarm water and neutral detergent. DO NOT use fabric softeners, as they can obstruct the fabric's absorption properties and degrade the adhesion of the heat-sealed tapes.
• Drying: Air dry or tumble dry on low heat. Avoid industrial drying at high temperatures to prevent fiber deformation and reflective tape detachment.
• Ironing: Iron at a moderate temperature. DO NOT iron over the HiVisTex Pro™ reflective tape; direct heat from the iron will destroy the retroreflection capability required to meet safety standards.
• Inspection: Before each use, check the condition of the segmented tape. If it shows cracks, detachment, or loss of brightness, the garment no longer complies with current regulations and must be replaced immediately to ensure your safety.
