R479X Executive Cool Mesh Safety Vest | Result Safeguard

Stay Visible. Stay Comfortable. Stay Ready.

The Result Safeguard R479X Executive Cool Mesh Safety Vest is designed for professionals who need reliable high-visibility protection without the heat and discomfort associated with heavier safety garments.

Its practical design combines high visibility with useful storage and identification features, making it an excellent choice for construction, logistics, transport, site work, events and other professional environments where visibility and functionality matter.

With its smart executive styling, the R479X is also an ideal choice for businesses looking to create a consistent, professional team uniform while maintaining the required level of visibility.

Designed for Professional Teamwear

Unlike a basic hi-vis vest, the R479X combines the visibility required for professional working environments with a more practical executive-style design.

The zipped front, ID pocket, radio loop and multiple storage pockets make it particularly useful for supervisors, site personnel and workers who need to carry essential items while remaining clearly visible.

Its lightweight mesh construction also makes it a strong option for summer workwear or environments where traditional solid-fabric hi-vis garments can become uncomfortable.

Custom Branding

The R479X can be professionally customised with your company logo through embroidery or print.

Embroidery is particularly well suited to smaller chest logos, providing a durable, professional finish that complements the executive styling of the vest.

Print can be used where larger graphics or more detailed artwork are required, such as larger back branding.

Every logo is checked by the ColorCoded team before production to ensure the artwork is suitable for the chosen branding method and garment.

Safety & Certification

The R479X is certified to EN ISO 20471:2013 Class 2, providing certified high-visibility protection for suitable professional working environments.

The Fluorescent Orange version is also listed as compliant with RIS-3279-TOM, making it a particularly relevant option for businesses working within the UK rail industry.

If rail compliance is important for your team, always ensure the correct Fluorescent Orange version is selected rather than assuming that both colourways carry the same rail-specific certification.
