Portwest PW360 PW3 Hi-Vis Extreme Rain Jacket Yellow/Black: Premium Visibility and Weather Protection

When safety and visibility are paramount, the Portwest PW360 PW3 Hi-Vis Extreme Rain Jacket in Yellow/Black stands as the industry’s premier choice for extreme weather protection. This high-visibility rain jacket combines advanced waterproof technology with striking yellow coloration for maximum visibility in the most challenging work environments. As your trusted authorized Portwest distributor, TECHACS Safety Solutions delivers professional-grade protective workwear that keeps your team safe, dry, and compliant.

The Yellow/Black Advantage: Enhanced Visibility That Saves Lives

The yellow/black color combination of the Portwest PW360 provides exceptional visibility in diverse lighting conditions and environments. Yellow hi-vis coloring offers superior contrast against:

• Urban backgrounds and concrete structures
• Overcast and foggy weather conditions
• Dawn and dusk lighting scenarios
• Industrial and warehouse environments
• Roadway and construction sites

Combined with heat-applied segmented reflective tape, this yellow hi-vis rain jacket ensures workers remain visible from all angles, day or night.

Uncompromising Waterproof Performance

The Portwest PW360 Yellow/Black Hi-Vis Extreme Rain Jacket delivers industry-leading weather protection with an EN 343 Class 4:3 X rating. This certification guarantees:

• 11,000mm waterproof protection – shields against torrential rain and wet conditions
• 50,000g/m²/24hrs breathability – prevents internal moisture buildup during physical activity
• Fully sealed seams – eliminates water penetration at critical junction points
• Waterproof zippers – maintains protection at entry points and pockets

Constructed from durable 300D Stretch Oxford polyester with PU membrane coating, this yellow hi-vis jacket utilizes PFAS-free Texpel™ Splash Eco fabric finish. Water beads instantly away from the surface, while the premium stain-resistant technology repels oil, dirt, and grime—essential for maintaining high-visibility effectiveness throughout demanding workdays.

Class 3 High-Visibility Certification

Safety compliance isn’t optional in high-risk environments. The Portwest PW360 Yellow/Black rain jacket exceeds multiple international safety standards:

• ANSI/ISEA 107 Type R Class 3 – meets American high-visibility requirements
• ANSI/ISEA 107 Type P Class 3 – certified for public safety applications
• EN ISO 20471 Class 3 – complies with European visibility standards
• GO/RT 3279 compliant – approved for rail industry operations

The jacket features lightweight HiVisTex Pro segmented reflective tape strategically positioned for 360-degree visibility. Additionally, 40 UPF rated fabric blocks 98% of harmful UV rays, protecting workers during extended outdoor exposure.

Combined with exceptional moisture vapor transmission, workers stay comfortable and focused regardless of activity level.
