High Visibility Trousers

High visibility trousers are protective clothing made from fluorescent fabrics and reflective stripes that significantly increase the wearer’s visibility in various lighting conditions. They are vital in work environments such as construction, road maintenance, airports and industries, where the risk of accidents due to lack of visibility is high. According to EN ISO 20471 standards, these garments ensure that workers are easily identifiable, especially in adverse conditions such as fog, rain or at night. At RAG Tailors, we have developed reflective trousers that combine this essential safety function with the comfort required for prolonged use.

At RAG Tailors, our high visibility trousers are made from premium materials that ensure both safety and comfort. We mainly use high-quality polyester blends for durability and fluorescent properties, and cotton for breathability and comfort during prolonged use. The reflective strips are composed of highly refractory glass microspheres that ensure visibility at over 300 meters in low light conditions. For waterproof models, we apply special treatments that repel water while maintaining the breathability of the fabric. In addition, some models feature antibacterial fabrics that are washable at 90°C, suitable for environments that require rigorous hygiene, such as food or pharmaceutical industries.

Choosing the right reflective trousers will depend on the specific conditions of your work environment. For outdoor sectors exposed to the elements, we recommend waterproof models with additional thermal protection. In industrial environments, opt for trousers with reinforced knees and functional tool pockets. Also consider the required visibility class: Class 1 for low risks, Class 2 for medium risks and Class 3 for high risks (usually combining trousers and a jacket). Check that the garment complies with the EN ISO 20471 standard and that the reflective stripes remain effective after multiple washes. At RAG Tailors, we offer expert advice to help you select the high visibility trousers that best suit the specific needs of your professional activity.

High visibility clothing classes are defined by EN ISO 20471 and indicate different levels of protection. Class 1 is the minimum level, with at least 0.14m² of fluorescent material and 0.10m² of retroreflective material, suitable for low-risk environments. Class 2 requires 0.50m² of fluorescent material and 0.13m² of retroreflective material, and is recommended for work on urban roads. Class 3, the maximum level, requires at least 0.80m² of fluorescent material and 0.20m² of retroreflective material, ideal for work on motorways or high-risk environments. At RAG Tailors, our high visibility trousers are classified according to these standards, ensuring that each professional has access to the level of protection appropriate to the specific requirements of their role.

Proper care of reflective trousers is essential to preserve their high visibility properties. We recommend following the specific instructions on the label of each garment. In general, wash the trousers separately on a gentle cycle with warm water (up to 40°C) and neutral detergent, avoiding bleaches and fabric softeners that can damage the reflective stripes. Some RAG Tailors models, made from special fabrics, can be washed at higher temperatures (60°C to 90°C). Avoid drying in direct sunlight or in high-temperature tumble dryers. Regularly check the condition of the reflective stripes - if they are damaged or significantly less reflective, it is time to replace the garment. Proper care ensures that the trousers maintain their safety function for longer.
