Enhanced Visibility Work Trousers PPE

Certified high visibility work trousers must comply with EN ISO 20471. This European standard specifies the performance requirements for high visibility clothing worn by workers in hazardous environments, ensuring their visibility in low light conditions or against complex backgrounds. Safety trousers certified to EN ISO 20471 use fluorescent materials and reflective tapes with high reflectivity, and are tested for durability after washing and resistance to abrasion. At RAG Tailors, we ensure that our models meet these rigorous requirements, offering effective and reliable PPE trousers for professional use.

The choice of safety trousers should take into account the work environment, the level of visibility required, the weather conditions and the comfort of the user. For night workers or those in high-traffic areas, we recommend PPE trousers with 360º reflective tapes and fluorescent fabric, ideally in yellow or orange. For those who work in environments where they are in direct contact with machinery or exposed to mechanical risks, it is important to choose work trousers with reinforced knees and functional pockets. RAG Tailors offers a versatile range of high-visibility work trousers adapted to various professional sectors, always with a focus on performance and protection.

Reflective work trousers bring several important benefits to the safety and efficiency of workers. The main ones include: significantly increased worker visibility, especially in poorly lit or foggy environments; greater protection against accidents, especially in areas where vehicles or machinery circulate; compliance with legal PPE standards; and greater credibility for the company in the eyes of inspections. By choosing EN ISO 20471 certified high visibility trousers from RAG Tailors, workers also benefit from ergonomic comfort, functional design and durable materials, ensuring protection without compromising mobility.

Proper maintenance of high visibility trousers is essential to preserve the properties of the reflective and fluorescent materials. These garments should be washed inside out, using neutral detergent and avoiding the use of bleach or fabric softeners, which can compromise reflectivity. Air drying is recommended rather than machine drying, especially for models with heat-applied reflective strips. Washing frequency should also respect the limits indicated by the manufacturer. At RAG Tailors we provide clear instructions for each model of high visibility protective clothing, ensuring that its effectiveness remains for longer.

No, the mandatory use of high-visibility trousers depends on the risk assessment of each professional activity. However, they are highly recommended — and often required — in sectors such as construction, road safety, infrastructure maintenance, heavy industry and logistics, where visibility is critical. Even when not legally required, the use of this type of protective clothing with reflective tapes contributes to reducing accidents and improving working conditions. RAG Tailors offers options suitable for different risk levels, helping companies comply with regulations and protect their teams.

The EN ISO 20471 standard classifies high visibility clothing into 3 classes, based on the amount of visible material (fluorescent and reflective) present in the garment. Class 1 is the lowest visibility, suitable for environments with moderate risk, while Class 3 is the highest and suitable for work in places with heavy traffic or extremely reduced visibility. Class 2 safety trousers or those combined with Class 3 jackets are the most common in demanding professional contexts. At RAG Tailors, we clearly identify the classes of our products, helping customers to choose the right level of protection.
