Whether you work outside where you’re regularly exposed to the elements or inside in a cold storage facility with forklifts and other moving machinery, with the selection of high-visibility jackets from Construction Fasteners and Tools, you won't need to sacrifice comfort and warmth for visibility and safety. From 100% waterproof 6-in-1 parkas to quilted freezer jackets, we offer quality-constructed, high-visibility winter jackets that can protect you from cold temperatures while also maximizing your visibility at work.
When your job takes you near car and truck traffic, heavy equipment and other hazards that can pose a risk to your safety if you’re not fully visible, only high-visibility safety apparel — or HVSA — that meets the requirements of safety clothing in CSA Standard Z96-15 for Canadian workers has the approved coloring and reflective brightness to make you visible in all working environments.
It’s important to note that there’s no substitute for hi-viz jackets since the human eye notices bright and contrasting colors. By wearing high-visibility clothing, you give drivers, equipment operators and other members of your work crew the maximum amount of time possible to see you and take the necessary precautions to avoid potential accidents. In addition, in the case of a worksite emergency, a hi-viz jacket also allows you to be spotted in the shortest amount of time possible.
High-visibility jackets that are specifically designed for workers fall under three classes according to the amount of protection and coverage provided by the hi-viz components of the garments. The three classes are as follows:
For everyone from construction and utility crews to railway workers and airport baggage handlers, hi-viz jackets and apparel are recommended. When you're working near vehicles with speeds of 40 km/h or greater and/or when a task diverts your attention from nearby traffic, you need to be seen at all times.
At Construction Fasteners and Tools, we offer the Pioneer 100% waterproof 6-in-1 parka in either bright orange or yellow in sizes ranging from extra small to 5XL. These jackets are rated according to CSA Z96-15 as Class 2 — as long as the sleeves aren’t zipped off — and they become Class 3 when worn with hi-viz pants. In addition, they feature StarTechTM double-stitched reflective tape, a detachable hood and both an inner and outer jacket for maximum warmth and mobility.
We also carry Class 1 and 2 quilted freezer jackets from Pioneer that feature rib knit cuffs and a gusseted action back for warmth and maximum comfort, as well as StarTechTM double-stitched reflective tape for enhanced visibility.
We take jobsite safety seriously. That’s why we offer one of the widest selections of hi-viz apparel in the industry — from belts and vests to pants and jackets.
