- Agriculture
- Construction
- Mining

Stay Cool and Comfortable
Working in hot environments can be dangerous if the correct precautions are not taken. Frustration, exhaustion and heat stroke are all commonly caused by overexposure to heat, and sometimes the consequences can be deadly. Made with materials that are designed to prevent heat stress, the Portwest Hi-Vis Cooling Work Vest keeps the body at an ideal temperature, allowing the wearer to work in comfort, even in the hottest and most humid of conditions.
How to Use the Portwest Cooling Vest
Portwest evaporative cooling products are constructed from an innovative PVA multi-layered fabric that uses a unique polymer chemistry. Simply activate by soaking in water, engendering a chemical reaction within the fabric that enables the garments to act like a sponge, retaining water and keeping the body cool in hot weather conditions.
Instructions
Simply saturate the vest in water for one to two minutes and squeeze to remove any excess. The vest can then be worn and will not dampen any clothes underneath. When the vest becomes dry, simply repeat for a further eight hours of cool comfort.

The Portwest Hi-Vis Cooling Work Vest features an adjustable hook and loop fastening for flexible sizing, and its fit is deliberately designed to clear your waist, improving comfort when sitting or standing. Its 50+ UPF-rated fabric is even able to block out 98% of UV light, helping to protect workers from the effects of the sun's rays.
