With the continuous expansion of the scope of use of reflective vests, the sales brands of reflective vests are increasing day by day. Faced with a dazzling array of styles, how should we buy reflective vests?
1. To purchase high-visibility reflective materials
When it comes to reflective vests, the most important thing is of course the luminous effect. The reflective part of the reflective vest is made by the advanced technology of focusing and post-processing by using the micro-diamond crystal lattice to produce refraction and high refractive index glass beads retro-reflective principle. It can reflect the distant direct light back to the luminous place, and it has good retroreflective optical performance no matter in day or night. Especially at night, it can display the same high visibility as during the day.
Therefore, when purchasing a reflective vest, it should be made of high-visibility reflective materials. It can be easily spotted by night drivers no matter whether the wearer is in a distant place or under the interference of light or scattered light.
For example, conventional reflective vests are made of high-visibility reflective materials (PVC reflective lattice sheets). The reflective materials on the vest reflect strong reflections under the illumination of external light sources. They are suitable for outdoor engineering construction, road maintenance, safety warnings, etc. Wearing in situations such as dredging traffic, bright and eye-catching colors, good reflective performance, good warning effect, can improve the personal safety of staff.
Second, buy waterproof and breathable fabrics
Since most people wearing reflective vests work outdoors and need to face wind and sun, rain and snow, the material chosen should be waterproof, sun-proof and breathable, and can be suitable for all seasons.
At present, most of the products on the market use all-polyester mesh cloth or 100% all-polyester mesh cloth. Choosing breathable and soft vest fabrics according to actual needs can make us more comfortable when working outdoors.
Having said that, I believe everyone has a new understanding of reflective vests. However, not all manufacturers and brands design and produce strictly in accordance with the national standard. Therefore, although some styles of reflective vests look similar in appearance, the quality, area and sewing requirements of the base materials and reflective materials do not meet the standards. It does not serve as an effective safety warning, so when you buy, you must not buy inferior vests because you are greedy for cheap.
