Engineered for Performance

The Portwest S460 Hi-Vis Traffic Jacket is a cornerstone of industrial safety, engineered to withstand the rigours of outdoor work in the UK's unpredictable climate. Constructed from a robust 190gsm 100% Polyester fabric with a polyurethane coating, this garment provides an impenetrable barrier against wind and rain, certified to EN343 Class 3:1 standards. The inclusion of taped seams ensures that water ingress is eliminated even during prolonged exposure to torrential downpours, making it an essential asset for teams in construction, traffic management, and utilities. Beyond weatherproofing, the jacket is designed for high-risk environments, meeting EN ISO 20471 Class 3 requirements to guarantee maximum visibility in low-light and hazardous conditions. The fabric is also extremely durable, resisting abrasion and tearing, which significantly extends the lifecycle of the uniform. For procurement managers looking to equip staff with reliable Hi-Vis Jackets that balance technical specification with operational longevity, this traffic jacket delivers exceptional ROI.

Comfort & Workforce Utility

While safety is paramount, workforce compliance relies heavily on comfort. The S460 is designed with a generous cut that allows for layering without restricting movement, a critical factor for operatives handling machinery or performing manual handling tasks. The EN342 certification indicates superior thermal properties, ensuring wearers remain warm during sub-zero shifts without the bulk often associated with thermal workwear. Practical features such as the two-way zip allow for easy adjustments when sitting or driving, preventing the jacket from bunching up. The knitted storm cuffs provide a snug seal around the wrists, preventing cold draughts and water from running down the sleeves, while the pack-away hood offers instant protection when conditions deteriorate. With multiple storage options including a dedicated mobile phone pocket and deep hip pockets, this jacket ensures that essential tools and devices are always within reach, streamlining daily operations.
