Class 2 Apparel

Emergency Medical Technicians are a special breed. Whether in full time service or working as volunteers in your community, these highly trained men and women work day and night to provide life saving assistance to those in their care.

 

Often working in environments close to motor vehicle traffic, EMT’s have special needs to keep themselves safe while attending emergency situations. Rankin Textile carries only the best reflective, class two and class three apparel. ANSI/ISEA 107 compliant, these high-visibility vests increase safety through visibility as well as ease of use.

 

Simple to slip over almost any other weather-related apparel, the mesh construction promotes easy movement and includes highly reflective bands to promote high visibly during day or night conditions. Multiple hook and loop adjustments ensure vests will fit almost any size. In addition, these vests include interior pockets for any small tools, lights, etc. and have mic-tabs on both sides of the chest to accommodate the EMT’s needs.

 

For environments where the same high visibility is a safety requirement, Rankin also carries Tingley High Visibility Sweatshirts. Bright orange with reflective tape, these sweatshirts offer all the same features as High visibility vests with the added benefit of warmth. Front pockets for hands, drawstring hood and sturdy zipper make this the apparel of choice for environments where a little extra protection and visibility are needed.

 

When needed, for Emergency Medical situations, full safety equipment and gear can even include EMT pants and Bates Boots.

High Visibility Apparel

According to OSHA, high visibility is highly important.

For companies in construction, directing or interacting with traffic and emergency situations, use of reflective apparel is often more than a good idea. It’s a requirement.

Rankin Textile carries vests and shirts meeting Class 2 and Class 3 guidelines

Where and when?

Class 2 apparel is designed for moderate risk situations including: School walk way crossings; parking lots; directing traffic. Due to lesser risks, these vests and shirts are smaller than Class 3. These are also excellent options for walkers, runners and joggers looking for greater visibility for increased safety on the road they share with motor vehicles.

Class 3 apparel is designed for greater visibility in situations of heavy weather such as blizzard and hurricane. They are also intended for use by traffic and construction workers in high speed areas such as freeways and high ways. Class 3 are also intended for use by emergency personnel such as EMTs, Firefighters and Police.

Both shirts and vests can be branded with company or division logos.
