Visibility
Walking, running or on your daily commute, the importance of visibility cannot be underestimated. Huntoffice.co.uk have a full range of Health & safety products to keep you protected.

The range of high visibility clothing on huntoffice.co.uk includes various type of work wear such as vests, jackets and trousers that come in a selection of visibility classes. The brands that we source our high visibility clothing from include Portwest and Dealer Workwear.

• High visibility clothing is a type of personal protective equipment which is used for both indoor and outdoor purposes. The main purpose of high visibility clothing is to make people wearing it more visible which especially important for environments where there are poor lighting conditions or places such as warehouse or factories where a lot of industrial machinery is used. As with most of protective work wear, high visibility clothing has to meet certain requirements and safety standards such as EN 471:2003 which is the European standard for high visibility clothing.

• The EN471 standard describes 2 main characteristics in high visibility clothing which are the minimum area of conspicuous materials and the retro reflection level. There are 3 levels that describe how much is the material conspicuous. Class 1 is the lowest level of visibility, class 2 provides an intermediate level of visual protection and class 3 is the highest level of visibility available in high visibility clothing.

• The quality of light reflection is described as 1 for clothing that is less visible and 2 is applied to high visibility clothing that is more visible. This metric applies to light reflection in dark/night condition when headlights are pointed towards high visibility clothing.

• When shopping for high visibility clothing you will see both of these properties included in products specifications in format EN471 x : y, where x stands for conspicuous and y for light reflection of the materials.

• It is extremely important for the safety and comfort of use to choose the correct type of high visibility clothing which is suitable for particular type of work. Like any professional work wear, high visibility clothing should be comfortable and allow easy movement for the user. Workplace temperature should also be considered when deciding on high visibility clothing as some environments are great to wear lightweight vests or overalls whereas places like food warehouses or outdoor locations require high visibility jackets and trousers.

Now more than ever, the people of Ireland realise the necessity of protecting their homes and offices from intruders or from unscrupulous staff members who steal huge quantities of cash and/or products on a weekly basis. To help you counteract these serious threats, we have listed on our site a number of CCTV camera options which may help deter or detect malicious activity. It is regrettable to report that domestic and business burglaries are on the rise. Many customers are turning to security technologies such as CCTV cameras to give them peace of mind.

For home users, CCTV cameras will detect suspicious activity around the perimeter of your residence. When used inside the home, CCTV’s can help you monitor the activities of your child minder or housekeeper. CCTV Cameras may also be used as a method of keeping track of an unruly teenager or troublesome neighbour.

For business users, the temptation to steal can often be too much of a lure for some staff members who unfortunately may end up pocketing products from shop shelves or storeroom. Similarly, when it comes to cash, the temptation can be even greater when money is left unattended.  While most business owners would like to give their employees the benefit of the doubt, the financial implication of leaving staff unmonitored is often too big a risk, so business owners are left with little choice but to install CCTV cameras in the hope that they may deter any would-be thief’s. Another reason businesses choose to install CCTV Camera’s on their premises is to counteract would-be fraudsters who may claim to have been injured or assaulted while on the company’s property.
