Comfort at work
The use of ergonomically designed work clothes that facilitate movement can significantly improve the performance of any task. Not only because the fabric or design fits the body optimally and comfortably, but also because the fabric and material from which a garment is made can also guarantee safety and protection for the worker.
Different types of fabric
Cotton
100% cotton shirts are common in jobs where fire, chips or electricity are used because it is not highly flammable. Moreover, thanks to its breathability, it is a very comfortable fabric to perform any task of effort or work in environments with high temperature.
Polyester
Synthetic fabric made from elastomers that come from oil. Very versatile due to its great capacity to be moulded very well and adaptable to different uses.
A great quality of the polyester is that it has a great waterproof capacity. Ideal for work in contact with humidity or water.
Piqué knitwear
It is a fabric composed of 50% polyester and 50% cotton with a relief finish in the form of cords or spikes. Commonly used in polo shirts due to its qualities in durability, flexibility and transpiration.
High visibility
In high-risk situations, it is necessary to use clothing that facilitates visibility and allows the worker wearing it to be located quickly.
Garments of this type are made of two types of materials: one fluorescent (background) and one retroreflective. One for visibility during the day and another for visibility at night or in low light conditions.
Fluorescent material
Fluorescent materials are characterised by converting invisible ultraviolet light into visible light. This property makes the garments look brighter and more colourful. In addition, they offer a good contrast to the colours of the urban or natural environment. There are three possible colours: yellow, red-orange and red.
Retroreflective material
This material helps the eye to perceive light in low light conditions. When the light rays return to the direction from which they came, this is when the effect of retroreflection occurs. An example of this effect is car headlights illuminating such a material.
Retroreflective materials appear brighter to the observer as long as he is located near the source of light.
The UNE EN 471 standard includes all the requirements that this type of high-visibility clothing must meet. In the section of high visibility garments of Reysan you can find a wide selection of this type of protective clothing.
