Safety Garment

What is Safety Garment

Safety clothing regards items of personal protective equipment (PPE) that are intended to keep the wearer safe from needless risk and danger. Individuals exposed to fire, extreme heat or chill, hostile weather, toxic chemicals, puncture or ballistic risks, contaminants, electrical charge, or low visibility should be outfitted with appropriate attire to minimize risks. Safety workwear is a lineup of workplace garments used to improve the safety of the wearer. It's a common fact that the work environment carries hazards that may not be apparent at the surface, but they are lurking in the background. Wearing safety garments is a habit workers should all get accustomed to.

Advantages of Safety Garment

High visibility
The most obvious benefit of wearing workplace safety clothing is the increased visibility it gives employees. Each piece of clothing is made of bright colors and has added reflective accents that help employees be seen from long distances. Bright colors of safety vests are easily identifiable, making every employee safer when they wear them.

Easily identifiable to everyone
It's not often that you see someone wearing a safety vest out and about in their leisure time. They have a reputation of being used by professionals who are on the job and are, therefore, taken very seriously. A safety vest acts as a kind of badge to show professionalism and easily identify who is working on the site.

Promotes safe practice mindset
There is something to be said for getting your whole company into a mindset of safety and following the correct protocols to avoid problems and accidents. When everyone is wearing these extra clothing pieces, it helps to create a safe work environment.

Helps extend workable hours
High visibility clothing can extend your work hours since employees can be seen in the darker conditions. Simply turn on lights to illuminate the work area and the reflective accents on the safety vests will do the rest!

Adds comfort
It can easily fit over any coats or jackets an employee needs to wear to keep warm. But in the summer months, it's not enough to add a lot of heat onto the employee as well. It can also be a good waterproof choice to keep the employee dry as well!

The Best Materials for the Manufacture of Safety Clothing for Work

The choice of the best fabrics for the manufacture of clothing for work uniforms will depend on the climatic conditions, the requirements of comfort, durability, impermeability, etc. Among the most recommended materials, we select the following:
Cotton is a soft and comfortable fabric that adjusts well to the skin, making it suitable for office uniforms or clothing used in customer service.
Polyester is a durable and wear-resistant fabric, making it suitable for work with a high level of activity.
The nylon is a waterproof and windproof fabric, thus it is a recommended fabric for outdoor activities.
Flannel refers to a soft, warm fabric that retains heat, making it suitable for work uniforms in cold environments.
Lyocell is a type of fabric that is soft, breathable and wrinkle resistant, making it suitable for work uniforms in hot and humid environments.
Spandex is a stretchy, comfortable fabric that fits well against the skin, making it suitable for workwear that allows for high mobility.

Selecting the Right Protective Garment

The first step is to conduct a detailed assessment of the working environment(s) concerned and the nature of the hazard(s) that are, or maybe, present.
Coating type: The coatings used on our fabrics have different properties and weights, which ensure each material is suitable for its end application. For example, we have a range of garments made from EPVC which provides stretch within the coating, allowing for a more comfortable garment. In another range, we have focused on adding additional lacquers to increase the protection provided against animal fats which historically cause traditional PVC to break down faster.
Material weight: Weight is another key focus, the heavier the fabric, the longer the breakthrough protection time is provided. However, a fabric that is too heavy can cause heat stress within a workforce where the job is more active or in a heated environment. Our range includes fabrics at all weights to ensure that there is something suitable for every application.
Garment design: Our garments are designed to allow as much freedom of movement as possible, as well as being compatible with other PPE. We understand the wearer is likely to be wearing gloves, so we offer multiple cuff styles to ensure each user can find a compatible system for their task. We also ensure all hoods have a shock cord drawstring which allows the hood to be pulled in around a full-face respiratory system.
Garment construction: Our seams are fully sealed with high-frequency welding to prevent any leaks. Our garments have a double storm facing covering the zips to ensure that there is protection at the weakest areas.

General Materials and Designs of Safety Garment

PPE function	Common materials	Design specifications
Improved visibility	Polyester, cotton, acrylic, or fluoropolymer fabrics with reflective markings.	These items are colored in fluorescent yellow or orange to help distinguish human figures in many applications. These come in variety of articles, but outerwear is most common.
Chemical resistance	Inert or chemically resistant materials: Butyl, cotton, polyester, neoprene, nitrile, fluorelastimer, rubber, latex, PVA, PVC, vinyl, and viton.	Extended cuffs and a tight-fit provide wearers with flexible, unencumbered movement.
Fire resistance	Leather, treated cotton, aramids, carbon fiber, and fluorpolymers with fleece or aluminized linings.	Items are not fireproof, but fire retardant.
Static control	Nitrile, nylon, carbon fiber, and rubber, perhaps with acrylic fibers of a polyurethane coating.	Attire is meant to prevent static discharge to sensitive electrical components.
Anti-contamination	Dense, ESD controlled, and antimicrobial fabrics like nitrile, neoprene, latex, tri-polymer, and synthetic nitrile polymer.	These items are typically in ensemble to provide complete coverage.
Puncture resistance	Chainmail, leather, spandex, nylon, aramids, fiberglass, nitrile, and polycotton blends.	These items will have polymer, rubber, or PVC reinforcement in material joints.
Ballistic resistance	Almost exclusively tight woven, synthetic fibers. Aramids like Kevlar® and Twaron® as well as thermoplastic polyethelenes and laminated fibers. Fabrics with inserts for metal or ceramic plates/scales provide the best protection.	Usually only required in law enforcement and security industries.
Heat resistance	Leather, treated cotton and denim, carbon fiber, acrylics, polyester, sateen, and para-aramids. May be lined with fleece or polyester.	Items are heat resistant, but not necessarily fire retardant.
Cryogenic resistance	Aluminized shell and fabric lining, as well as nylon taslan, PTFE, and silicone fabrics.	Prevent frostbite when handling cryogenic liquids or exposed to cryogenic temperatures. They are never designed for liquid immersion.
Cold weather protection	Cotton, polycotton, polyester, fleece, wool, and acrylic blends often with a polymer or rubberized shell.	General-use, cold weather PPE.
Rainwear	Sometimes with natural rubber for arc flash protection; PVC, polyurethane, nylon, and polyester.	Rain can pose a serious risk in some applications, and rain suits or full coverage is encouraged.
Sun protection	Polyester, nylon, wool, and silk reflect UV radiation well. Fabric color makes a significant difference as to the amount of light reflected.	Primarily hats and shirts for hot or tropical climates.
Arc flash protection	Modacrylic-cotton blends are best. Also, carbon fibers, flame-resistant cottons, polyurethanes, and para-aramids.	Highly regulated by government/standards bodies. See standards section below.
Biohazard	Latex, nitrile, rubber, vynil, neoprene, PVC, butyl, cottons, polyester, and acrylic fibers.	PPE coverage varies according to environment, from medical examination scrubs to hazmat, pressure-controlled suits.
Radiation protection	Listed by degree of increasing protection: Cotton & synthetic fibers; plastic bibs/aprons, PVC, latex; rubber, plastic-coasted non-woven fabrics; lead and lead lined garments.	The intensity of the radiation determines the level of protection required. Pressurized, lead-lined suits are reserved for extreme radiation exposure.
Ergonomic support	Virtually any conforming fabric, but especially leather and polyester. Foam, gel, and rubber provide comfortable support against skin, while polymers provide a durable skeleton.	Items vary based upon the relief of uncomfortable pressure on human anatomy. Knee, elbow, and ankle pads, as well as back supports.

Why Do You Wear Reflective Clothing

Reflective uniforms and vests come in a variety of reflective and fluorescent bright colors and can be used both day and night. Choosing high visibility clothing that is best suited to the working environment and conditions is crucial.
Reflective vests and uniforms are suitable for low light and night working environments. For example, road construction workers who work at night should wear reflective clothing. The vests reflect the light that falls on them, so the workers are easier to see.
Fluorescent vests and uniforms are more suitable for bright daytime work environments. The bright colors make it easy to see the workers because they stand out. They are not suitable for low light or night work. There are some vests and uniforms that offer both materials, so they can be used in both work environments. However, not all reflective vests and uniforms are fluorescent, and not all fluorescent vests and uniforms are reflective. Keep this in mind when choosing the right high-visibility safety vest and uniform for your work environment.

How to Wash Your Workwear

Follow the washing instructions on the garment care label, be particularly carefully when washing rainwear
When washing garments especially with reﬂective details always wash the garments inside out to avoid damage to the reﬂective properties
Make sure to close all zippers, hook and loop fastenings and buttons before washing
Wash dark colours separately
To reduce the number of cycles ﬁll the washing machine

Temperature
We always label our garments with the highest temperature allowed. But you can select a lower washing temperature to save energy and help the environment. Washing at 40 degrees instead of 60 degrees saves almost 50 per cent energy.

Detergents
Use eco friendly detergent that is kind to the environment and your skin to prevent skin irritation
Do not use softener, as it may reduce the performance of the fabric
Avoid softener and soap-based detergents when washing PPE garments as chemicals from the soap could counteract the properties of the fabric

Drying
Where possible, dry outside in the air. However, read the label carefully. Certain garments must be tumble dried at a high temperature to retain the fabrics properties
To avoid shrinkage and protect the fabrics avoid using a dryer on a higher temperature than necessary

Caring for your garment
You should never mix certiﬁed garments with non-certiﬁed garments in the same wash
Failure to launder properly could adversely affect the properties of the fabric
You must carefully examine your garment on a regular basis, to make sure that the fabric is undamaged and keeps you safe

How to Take Care of Your Hi-Vis Clothing

Follow the Washing Instructions on the Label
If you are ever unsure about taking care of a new piece of hi-viz safety wear, the first step you should take is to read the label. Generally, this will include washing instructions that will help guide you in your attempt to take care of your workwear properly. High-visibility clothing suppliers work to include proper washing instructions on every piece of clothing so that you can maintain them in the best possible way. As pieces age, sometimes the text on the labels can fade, so it is crucial to have a good idea of how to take care of them properly, even if you do not have a tag handy.

Remove Stains Quickly
One of the most challenging parts of protecting high-visibility products is preventing staining. Stains can ruin the high-visibility surface and make it difficult for you to be seen. The more quickly you treat them, the more effective the stain removal. So if you spill or get something on your hi-viz safety wear, you want to address the stain as quickly as possible. When stains are allowed to sit on your high-visibility items, they can prevent the brightness from showing through and make you less visible.

Avoid Harsh Detergents and Bleach
When you want to keep clothing clean and bright, your first thought is often to use bleach or another harsh detergent. This is not good for your high-visibility clothing since it can damage the hi-vis finish. By simply avoiding harsh detergents for your custom hi-vis clothing, you can help to extend their life while still keeping them as clean and bright as possible.

Wash Hi-Viz Clothing Alone or With Soft Fabrics Only
The things you wash with your hi-vis clothing can be equally as crucial as your soap. If you wash your high-visibility items with rough or abrasive fabrics, it can cause severe damage and prevent your clothing items from meeting hi-vis clothing standards. The abrasive texture sometimes can remove the high-visibility layer of your clothing and make it more difficult to see. Try to wash your high-visibility clothing separately or with only soft materials so you can maintain the integrity of your hi-vis products.

Air Dry or Use Your Dryer's Lowest Heat Setting
Heat can also damage some hi-vis safety apparel, so you need to be mindful when drying your high-visibility clothing. Air drying is generally the best option and will let your clothing last much longer. But if you need to use the dryer, using the lowest heat setting can also help extend the life of your hi-vis safety wear. Most dryers even include a tumble setting that does not use heat. If you decide to air dry, it is vital to keep your hi-vis gear out of direct sunlight since that can cause issues with fading.

Don't Wring it Out!
Wringing out items can feel like a quick way to get things dry, but it is potentially damaging to many kinds of fabric. This is especially true with hi-vis products. Wringing out your vests and other items can lead to structural problems with the material, eventually destroying your things. It is better to avoid ringing them out generally to keep them in good condition over the years you use them.
