High-Visibility Jackets

Functional and Certified High-Visibility Jackets for Every Industry

Our high-visibility jackets provide reliable protection against wind and weather – whether on construction sites, in road traffic, or during rescue operations. The highly visible materials with certified reflective strips ensure optimal visibility in low light and challenging conditions.

When choosing a high-visibility jacket, the intended area of use and the prevailing weather conditions are particularly important. A lightweight softshell jacket may be suitable for transitional weather and active work, while a weatherproof rain jacket provides additional protection during wet conditions. For colder temperatures, insulated winter jackets can be combined with suitable base layers to provide additional warmth.

High-Quality Materials and Tested Safety

Every high-visibility jacket at Korntex complies with applicable standards such as EN ISO 20471 and is designed for daily use under demanding conditions. Whether softshell jackets, rain jackets, or winter jackets – our products impress with durability, comfort, and resilience.

EN ISO 20471 specifies requirements for high-visibility clothing used to make the wearer clearly visible in different lighting conditions. The combination of fluorescent background material and retroreflective material helps other people identify the wearer more easily, for example when working near moving vehicles or in areas with limited visibility.

Depending on the model, high-visibility jackets can provide additional practical features for everyday work. These may include adjustable cuffs, practical pockets, breathable materials, weather-resistant outer fabrics, or additional areas suitable for company identification. This makes it easier to choose a jacket according to the actual requirements of the workplace rather than focusing solely on appearance.

Which High-Visibility Jacket Is Right for You?

The right jacket depends on where and when it is used. For work involving a lot of movement, a lightweight and breathable jacket can provide greater comfort. If protection against rain is the priority, a water-repellent or waterproof model with a suitable water column can be a better choice. During colder months, an insulated winter jacket can provide additional warmth.

It is also worth considering how the jacket will be worn. If it is used over workwear or several layers of clothing, sufficient freedom of movement and the appropriate size are important. For longer periods outdoors, features such as adjustable cuffs, practical pockets and breathable materials can make everyday work more comfortable.

For companies, it can also be useful to consider whether the clothing needs to be individually customized. High-visibility jackets can be supplemented with company logos or name tags to help create a consistent appearance for employees and teams.

What Should You Consider When Choosing a High-Visibility Jacket?

• Area of use: Consider whether the jacket will mainly be used on construction sites, in road traffic, logistics, rescue services, security, or another working environment.
• Weather conditions: Choose the material and construction according to whether protection from rain, wind, cold, or changing weather is required.
• Temperature: Lightweight jackets are useful for warmer conditions, while insulated models are more suitable for colder temperatures.
• Mobility: For physically demanding work, a comfortable fit and sufficient freedom of movement are particularly important.
• Visibility: Fluorescent materials and reflective elements are especially important when working in low-light conditions or near traffic.
• Practical details: Depending on the application, pockets, adjustable cuffs and other functional details can make a noticeable difference during everyday work.
• Fit and layering: If the jacket is worn over additional workwear, make sure there is enough room for comfortable movement without restricting the reflective areas.
• Customization: Companies can consider adding logos or name tags where a consistent team appearance is required.

Which Professional Groups Are High-Visibility Jackets Suitable For?

High-visibility jackets are indispensable in many industries to ensure visibility, safety, and a professional appearance. The key professional groups include:

• Construction workers – for building sites, civil engineering, and infrastructure projects
• Road and traffic workers – for optimal visibility in road traffic
• Emergency medical personnel – during emergency and medical services
• Firefighters and police – during operations in hazardous or unclear environments
• Logistics and warehouse staff – for loading/unloading, in warehouses, or on company premises
• Security and guard services – for patrols, events, or site security
• Gardening and landscaping – for work in public spaces
• Utility services – for electricity, water, gas, and telecommunications
• Event staff – at major events, concerts, or sports events

High-Visibility Jackets for Changing Working Conditions

Many professional activities take place outdoors and under changing conditions. A jacket that works well in mild weather may not be the best choice during prolonged rain or low temperatures. For this reason, it can be useful to consider high-visibility clothing as part of a flexible workwear system and select the jacket according to the season and working environment.

Softshell jackets can be a practical option for active work and changing weather, while rain jackets are particularly useful when protection against precipitation is required. Winter jackets are designed for colder conditions and can provide additional insulation. The right combination depends on the individual working environment, the amount of physical activity, and the weather conditions.

Visibility, Comfort and Everyday Use

High-visibility clothing is only useful in everyday work if it can be worn comfortably for extended periods. Therefore, visibility and comfort should not be considered separately. Breathable materials, a suitable fit, practical pockets and adjustable details can help make a jacket easier to wear throughout the working day.

For professional users, it is also important to follow the manufacturer's care instructions. Correct washing and care can help maintain the properties of the materials and reflective elements over time. Before each use, the jacket should also be checked for visible damage, excessive wear, or contamination that could affect its visibility.
