Portwest CV02 Hi-Vis Cooling Vest Orange

The Portwest CV02 Hi-Vis Cooling Vest in Orange is a lightweight, breathable solution designed to help mitigate heat stress while maintaining mobility on the job. Built with cooling mesh fabric, this vest facilitates moisture wicking and rapid drying, while offering up to eight hours of cooling when activated. To initiate cooling, the vest is soaked in water, which allows the fabric to absorb moisture and provide a cooling effect during wear. The vest’s design clears the waist, aiding ease of movement whether you’re seated or standing throughout a shift.

Construction emphasizes visibility and practicality for outdoor and industrial settings. The vest features reflective tape to enhance visibility in low light and three pockets for secure storage of small tools or essentials. A dedicated pen pocket adds function for on-site tasks. Made from polyester in hi-vis orange, the garment is tailored as a vest to layer over other PPE ensembles and to accommodate urban or outdoor conditions requiring both cooling and high visibility.

These characteristics support use in environments where heat stress is a concern, including construction, maintenance, or outdoor work in hot conditions. Practically, operators should ensure the vest is fully soaked to activate cooling and re-wet as needed to sustain the effect. The packaging specifies a per-piece purchase with multiple units available (case quantity of 48), and the product is categorized under PPE. When selecting sizes and ensuring compatibility with an overall PPE outfit, consider the vest’s loose fit and arm-free design to avoid restricting movement while still maintaining correct visibility and storage capability.
