Shop All - Flame Resistant, Hi-Vis & PPE Safety Products

These address two entirely different hazards and are governed by different standards. Flame resistant (FR) clothing is certified to standards like NFPA 70E (arc flash) and NFPA 2112 (flash fire), designed to self-extinguish and resist igniting when exposed to electrical arcs or flash fire — required for workers around energized electrical equipment, oil and gas, and petrochemical environments. High visibility (hi-vis) clothing is certified to ANSI/ISEA 107, designed to make workers visible to drivers and equipment operators through fluorescent color and retroreflective tape — required for workers exposed to vehicle or equipment traffic. Some workers need both — for example, utility workers near both energized equipment and roadway traffic — and our catalog includes dual-hazard garments certified to both FR and hi-vis standards simultaneously for exactly this situation.

The applicable standard depends on your specific hazard exposure, and the right starting point is your employer's written PPE program or a site-specific hazard assessment — OSHA requires employers to assess workplace hazards and determine necessary PPE as part of the broader hierarchy of controls (elimination, substitution, engineering controls, administrative controls, and PPE as the last line of defense). As general guidance: ANSI Class 2 applies to workers exposed to traffic at roughly 25-50 mph, Class 3 to traffic above 50 mph or night/low-visibility work, NFPA 70E applies to arc flash risk around energized electrical equipment, and NFPA 2112 applies to flash fire risk in oil, gas, and petrochemical settings. Each category page in our catalog includes detailed guidance on the specific standard it addresses — when in doubt, consult your safety officer or the specific category page for your industry.

Yes — most apparel categories in our catalog are available across a full size range (commonly small through 5XL), and many categories offer department logo printing and embroidery for bulk orders. As of January 2025, OSHA's updated construction PPE standard requires that PPE properly fit each individual worker, so for crews with daily-assigned gear, plan to order across the actual size distribution of your team rather than defaulting to a single size. Contact us directly for help structuring a multi-size, multi-category bulk order or to discuss volume pricing for outfitting a full crew or department.

PPE should be the last line of defense in OSHA's hierarchy of controls — after elimination, substitution, and engineering or administrative controls have been considered. Once PPE is determined to be necessary, start with a hazard assessment specific to your worksite and tasks: identify exposure to traffic (hi-vis), arc flash or flash fire (FR clothing), specific chemical exposure (chemical splash gear), and physical hazards to the head, hands, eyes, and feet (general PPE). Many workers need apparel from more than one department simultaneously — a utility worker, for example, commonly needs FR clothing, hi-vis accessories, and hand protection together. If you're unsure which categories apply to your specific industry or task, contact us directly — we can help match your hazard profile to the right combination of certified gear across departments.

Every genuinely certified garment carries a sewn-in label confirming the specific standard, type, and class (for hi-vis: ANSI/ISEA 107 with Class and Type; for FR: NFPA 70E/2112 with arc rating where applicable). Product listings in our catalog specify the relevant certification in the product description and specification sheet, but always verify the physical label on the garment once it arrives rather than relying on marketing language or color alone — a bright fluorescent color or flame-resistant-sounding fabric name doesn't guarantee formal certification unless the specific standard and class are documented. If you have questions about a specific product's certification, contact us directly before relying on it for a compliance-critical application.
