With winter fast approaching safety specialists Arco have launched their ‘Be Safe, Be Seen’ campaign in a bid to reduce risk of injury to workers. The campaign draws attention to Arco’s range of Hi-Vis Hazardwear
which assists employers in improving the visibility of their employees.
Wearing the correct hi-vis hazardwear is integral to worker safety when working in adverse weather conditions and reduced daylight hours.
The fluorescent material that Arco’s Hi-Vis garments are made from provide day time visibility, whilst the reflective bands around the chest, arms or legs provide night time reflectivity, resulting in all day visibility. Arco offers a comprehensive range of Hi-Vis Hazardwear to suit all budgets from Arco Essentials through to GORE- TEX® Garments, which have all been tested to meet relevant EN Standards.
Richard Sansom, Product and Procurement Manager at Arco, said: “Arco is the first safety distributor to have its own in-house Product Assurance Laboratory which offers customers the reassurance that our HiVis garments meet or exceed the current EN standards and offer high quality protection. There

are a number of fake and substandard hi-vis garments on the market which are putting workers lives at risk. Our core purpose is to help people stay safe at work and we are committed to ensuring that only high quality, safe and reliable products are available to our customers.”
Figures released by the Health and Safety Executive for 2013/14 report over 1,545 major injuries in workplaces across the UK as a result of individuals being struck by moving vehicles. These findings are a stark reminder of the dangers of working alongside moving vehicles and machinery, and the need to be visible in order to stay safe.
As part of its commitment to safety, Arco has produced a dedicated Expert Guide to Hi-Vis Hazardwear which provides guidance on identifying and selecting the most appropriate workwear to keep the customer safe. As well as featuring a dedicated range of Hi-Vis garments available from Arco, The Expert Guide also provides an overview of EN standards and guidance on combining Hi-Vis protection that also feature flame resistant (FR) and rain protection properties.
