What is a reflective insulated jacket?

A reflective insulated jacket is reflective effect clothing; it not only has warm function but also has high visibility function.

Generally, waterproof fabrics such as Oxford cloth are used outside, and inner liners such as silk wool or down are added inside, and high-light reflective strips are sewn on the clothes.

This reflective insulated jacket is designed to keep outdoor workers safe and warm at night or in bad weather. In the dark or night environment, as long as there is weak external light, the reflective strip can help the wearer easily be found at a distance, thus ensuring their safety.

What are the characteristics of reflective insulated jacket ?

Windproof, waterproof, and warm functions:

The outer layer is usually made of a windproof, waterproof Oxford cloth material to prevent cold wind or moisture from entering while keeping the interior dry and comfortable.
The interior is made of thermal materials such as polyester, cotton, down, or synthetic fibers to keep the body warm in cold environments.

Reflective performance:

High-visibility reflective strips: A reflective insulated jacket is embedded in multiple parts of the garment (such as the chest, back, sleeves, etc.). Common reflective materials such as 3M™ Scotchlite™ reflect light at night or in low light conditions, making the wearer more visible to vehicles or other workers, thereby increasing safety.
Fluorescent color: The outer layer of reflective cotton clothing is usually bright (such as fluorescent yellow or fluorescent orange), which can also improve visibility during the day.

Comfort and Functionality：

Lightweight design: Reflective quilts are usually designed to be lightweight and warm.
Breathability: The breathable design prevents the wearer from sweating excessively during strenuous activities while maintaining warmth.
Multi-functional design: reflective cotton clothing is usually equipped with multiple pockets to facilitate the placement of tools, mobile phones, and other items. Some models also come with a detachable cap and lining for different weather conditions.

What are the application areas of reflective insulated jacket ?

Construction site personnel: It is very cold outdoors in winter, and reflective insulated jackets can not only provide enough warmth for workers but also ensure that they are found by vehicles or other machinery operators in time when the light is insufficient.
Traffic management and highway workers: Traffic management and highway workers work at night or in bad weather conditions, and reflective cotton clothing can improve their visibility and ensure safety in passing traffic.
Logistics and transportation personnel:winter logistics or freight personnel need to carry out handling work in cold weather; reflective insulated jackets can provide warmth and improve visibility when working at night or in the early morning to prevent accidents.
Emergency rescue workers: In emergency rescue situations, such as night rescue or inclement weather, reflective insulated jackets can ensure that rescuers stay warm while improving their visibility in complex environments.
Road sanitation personnel: Winter sanitation personnel in the road cleaning suitable reflective cotton clothing can provide warmth and can protect their safety in low-visibility environments.

What are the advantages of reflective insulated jacket compared with ordinary insulated jacket ?

Improve security

High visibility: reflective insulated jacketis usually accompanied by reflective strips or other high-visibility materials, such as fluorescent yellow, fluorescent orange, and other colors, which can effectively reflect light at night or in low-light environments, making the wearer easier to find. This greatly reduces the risk of accidents in construction sites, traffic management, logistics, and other industries.

Reduce the risk of accidents: In vehicles, machinery, and human-intensive work environments, reflective insulated jacket can help workers quickly be seen by vehicle drivers or other workers, reducing the possibility of collision or accidental injury.

Multifunctional design

Adapt to a variety of working environments: reflective insulated jacket is not only provide basic thermal functions but are also suitable for harsh weather conditions, with wind, waterproof, breathable, and other characteristics. Compared with ordinary cotton clothes, it is more suitable for long-term use in outdoor and harsh environments.
Extra protection: Reflectiveinsulated jacket often has additional protective functions, such as wear resistance, tear resistance, anti-fouling, etc., which helps to extend the service life and adapt to harsh workplaces.

Meet safety standards

Many reflective jacket comply with international high visibility standards, such as EN ISO 20471 or ANSI/ISEA 107, which ensure the visibility and performance of reflective materials. And ordinary insulated jacket usually does not have such a safety certification and cannot provide similar security.

Wind and water resistance

Windproof and waterproof materials: reflective insulated jacket usually uses waterproof and windproof fabrics so that the wearer can keep dry and warm in bad weather (such as rain and snow, strong winds).

Ordinary insulated jacket is often more limited in terms of waterproof and windproof performance, especially in long-term outdoor work, which cannot provide adequate protection.

Custom features and designs

Multi-pocket design:reflective insulated jacket usually has multiple large-capacity pockets, which is convenient to carry work tools or personal items and enhance the convenience of work. The design of ordinary insulated jacket is relatively simple and usually does not have practical functions designed for the working environment.

Removable lining and cap: Many reflective jackets are equipped with removable lining and cap, which can adjust the thickness and warmth of the clothing according to different weather conditions and adapt to a variety of climatic conditions.

Wear resistance and durability: reflective insulated jacketusually uses wear-resistant materials, can cope with harsh working environments, such as construction sites, warehouses, etc., tear resistance is strong, longer service life. Ordinary insulated jacket is usually designed for daily use and is difficult to withstand frequent friction and wear in the working environment.
