- High-Vis: Premium sew-on reflective tape helps the jacket meet the highest visibility certification under the EN 20471 standard
- Flame-Resistant: The jacket offers protection from occasional and brief contact with small igniting flames
- Anti-Static: A carbon fibre component in the material means that the jacket is inherently anti-static
- Metal-Free: Conductive metal is completely absent from the makeup of the jacket

Yes, the jacket is also available in Orange. The orange version is suitable for railway work.
