About Hi-Vis Safety Vest
Hi-Vis Safety Vest is the visual language of EN ISO 20471 workwear seen on dark roadwork-night asphalt: fluorescent electric-lime mesh fabric that absorbs UV and re-emits it as visible light, banded with retroreflective silver stripes. The aesthetic is bold, condensed, industrial — safety lettering glowing over blacktop.
This system translates that PPE intensity to screen: an electric-lime primary blazing against near-black ground, silver-gray reflective bands as signature structure, and condensed grotesque type built for legibility at speed and distance.
