What types of reflective vests are there?

As we all know, reflective vests belong to labor insurance work clothes and are necessary protective equipment for sanitation workers and traffic police, because reflective vests can warn surrounding vehicles and pedestrians. So as to protect the personal safety and life safety of users.

Today, Shanghai Chengge will share with you two knowledge points about the material and classification of reflective vests.

First, the material of the reflective vest:

There are two main materials for reflective vests: mesh and plain weave. The quality of these two materials will directly affect the price of the reflective vest. Generally speaking, good fabrics are full of fluorescent colors, breathable, and don’t feel uncomfortable or stuffy. There are two kinds of reflective materials we usually see, one is reflective lattice, and the other is reflective cloth. The reflective cloth is divided into three levels: normal, bright silver and highlight. The production material can be divided into chemical fiber and T/C. Which one to choose depends on the needs of the working environment.

Second, the classification of reflective vests.

1. The safety reflective vest for children is simply a reflective vest specially designed for children. This vest is made of 120g low-elastic silk fabric, which is light to wear, and the pullover design is easy to put on and take off. At the same time, a 360° surrounding reflective strip will be added to the front and rear of the vest, which can remind vehicles from many parties. It is relatively safer for children to commute to school or travel.

2. The reflective vests for sanitation workers are generally fluorescent red or fluorescent yellow. Common styles include reflective vests with zippers and Velcro reflective vests, which are convenient and breathable to wear, and will not increase the burden on users.

3. Traffic police reflective vest, compared with other reflective vests, this reflective vest has more pockets, mainly to facilitate traffic police to put the required equipment in law enforcement. In addition, this reflective vest also has silver-gray reflective cloth, blue and white small square reflective strips or reflective lattice strips that are more beautiful and have a high reflective coefficient. 

In fact, in addition to the three common reflective vests mentioned above, there are also some other types, which will be shared with you next time when the editor organizes them.
