SuperS Safety Vest 80GSM

FAQ

FAQ — Safety Vest 80GSM

1. What does “80GSM” mean?

“80GSM” stands for “80 grams per square metre” — a measure of fabric weight. A safety vest rated 80 GSM is relatively lightweight, balancing breathability, comfort, and durability.

2. What material is used in an 80GSM safety vest?

Typically 100% polyester (mesh or plain weave) is used. Reflective tapes are added for visibility. The lightweight polyester helps in breathability and reduces worker fatigue. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}

3. Where is an 80GSM vest most useful?

It’s useful in warm or humid climates, for tasks with moderate exposure (e.g. warehouses, traffic control during day, light outdoor work) where heavy vests would overheat the user. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}

4. What safety or visibility standards should it meet?

Should include high-visibility (fluorescent) colours, reflective strips (front/back), and meet regional standards (e.g. EN ISO 20471, ANSI/ISEA). Even lightweight vests must make the wearer clearly visible.

5. How should the vest be cleaned and maintained?

Wash gently (cold or mild cycle), avoid bleach or harsh detergents. Air-dry; keep away from direct heat or ironing over reflective stripes. Check for damage like torn fabric or reflective tape peeling.

6. When should the vest be replaced?

When the reflective tape loses reflectivity, colours fade or become dull, fabric rips or becomes worn such that visibility is reduced, or closures (Velcro/zipper) fail. Regular inspection is important.

7. What closures and extra features are common with 80GSM vests?

Common closures are Velcro or zipper. Some have pockets (chest, lower) for IDs or small tools. Sleeveless design is typical. Reflective tape placements usually include two horizontal strips (torso) and sometimes vertical strips. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
