Most Popular Safety Vest Styles

September 29th, 2011 No comments

There are many different styles of safety vests, making it easy for you to find the one you need.  Here are some of the most popular:

Orange Safety Vest: The most common safety vest colors are lime and orange, because they are highly visible, which makes them perfect for working in hazardous areas.  Many of these vests also feature reflective striping that makes them even more eye-catching, even in dark conditions.

ANSI Safety Vests: Many industries require workers to wear safety vests that meet ANSI requirements.  ANSI stands for the American National Standards Institute, and vests come in Public Service 207-2006, ANSI Class 2, ANSI Class 3, and Non-ANSI.

Mesh Safety Vest: This style is lightweight and breathable, which makes them perfect for working in hot and humid environments.  We have many mesh safety vests, which come in both ANSI and Non-ANSI options at low wholesale prices!

Solid Safety Vests: These are more durable, made of tightly woven polyester.  If you want your safety vest customized with your company name and logo, choose a solid safety vest as your letters and images will come out cleaner and last longer!

There are many more types of safety vests available, so you can find the perfect vest for the industry you work in.  There are options for firemen, police, EMTs, pedestrians, road workers, and more. Everything is available from SafetyVests.com, and at low wholesale prices!

Need Help Choosing a Safety Vest?

July 7th, 2011 No comments

Finding the right safety vest can be an overwhelming task, especially if you’ve never used one before. Safety vests come in different sizes, colors, materials and classes. If you’re unsure which type of safety vest you need, you’ve come to the right place. We here at SafetyVests.com have created a safety vest guide to help walk you through the process of choosing a safety vest that suites your needs.

The safety vest guide works by breaking down the vest into six critical sections. As the user, you select the option or options you want included in your safety vest within each section. Let’s take color for example, which is one of the six sections. There are four options within the color section, including Yellow-Lime Green, Orange, No Preference, or Other. If you are specifically looking for orange safety vests, you would select only the orange option. If, on the other hand, you have no preference, you can simply select the no preference option to keep safety vests of all colors included in your search.

Color is just one of the six sections designed to help break down the safety vests. Let’s take a look at all of the sections:

  • Vest Style – This section breaks down vests based on class, including ANSI Class 3, Class 2, ANSI 207-2006, Non-ANSI, and No Preference. For many construction and highway workers, it is very important that they are wearing the correct class of safety vest required for their line of work. If you are selecting this safety vest for personal use, class may not be as important to you. Class is generally based on the amount of non reflective and reflective material covering the safety vest.
  • Vest Material – This section breaks down the vests based on how the vests are structured. Options included here are mesh, solid, a hybrid of mesh and solid, or no preference.
  • Vest Color – As mentioned earlier, this section breaks down vests based on color. If you choose the other option, only blue, red, green and black safety vests will be shown.
  • Closure Type – This section breaks the safety vests into two categories, either Velcro or Zipper. There are some other closure styles and some vests may have none at all, but the vast majority will fall under one of these two categories.
  • Vest Design – This section breaks the safety vests down by the job the vest is designed for. The options in this section include Breakaway, Flame Resistant, Chevron, Surveyor, and no preference.
  • Brand – This final sections breaks down safety vests by brand. If you’re looking for a specific brand, this section is perfect for you. If this is your first time purchasing a vest and don’t a specific brand in mind, simply choose the no preference option.

Once you have gone through the safety vest guide, the remaining safety vests that fit all of your criteria will be listed below. We hope this guide will be helpful in your quest to find that perfect safety vest.
