Occunomix Highway Safety Vest

Occunomix Highway Safety Vests: Engineered Tough Visibility for the Road

When workers are positioned alongside active roadways, being seen isn't optional — it's survival. Occunomix has spent over 35 years engineering high-visibility safety apparel that earns the trust of road crews, utility workers, survey teams, and first responders. Their highway safety vests sit at the core of that expertise, blending rigorous compliance standards with practical, job-site-ready design features that go well beyond the bare minimum.

A Legacy Built on High-Visibility Standards

Occunomix is a leading global manufacturer of personal safety equipment, with deep specialization in High Visibility Safety Apparel. Their highway vests are part of the brand's Engineered Tough® philosophy — gear built to meet current ANSI/ISEA standards while helping employers maintain OSHA compliance in even the most demanding environments. The ANSI/ISEA 107 standard outlines strict performance requirements for high-visibility safety apparel to ensure workers are easily seen in all lighting conditions — day, night, and low light — and Occunomix designs its entire vest lineup to satisfy or exceed those benchmarks.

Diverse Styles for Every Highway Work Scenario

One of Occunomix's strongest suits in this category is sheer variety. Road workers and site supervisors can choose from an extensive range of styles to match the specific demands of their job:

• ANSI Class 2 and Class 3 Vests — covering standard to maximum-risk traffic exposure scenarios
• Surveyor Vests — such as the LUX-ATRNSM Solid/Mesh Two-Tone Surveyor Vest, loaded with pockets including a divided chest pocket with ID badge holder, mic tab, and hook-and-loop lower pockets — purpose-built for professionals who need to carry tools and documentation on the job
• Mesh Vests — lightweight, breathable options like the ECO-GCZ and ECO-IM2TZ for hot-weather highway work
• Flame-Resistant (FR) Vests — including the FR-VM2112Z mesh zip vest and the LUX-SSCGFR solid vest for environments with arc flash or ignition risks; Occunomix is notably recognized for producing America's first ANSI-compliant cotton flame-resistant safety vest
• 5-Point Breakaway Vests — such as the LUX-SSBRP and LUX-GCB32T, featuring a breakaway design that reduces entanglement hazards in high-traffic situations
• Public Safety Vests — like the LUX-PSF, which meets both ANSI/ISEA 207 and NFPA 1901 standards and uses 3M™ Scotchlite™ reflective tape for premium visibility
• Sustainable Options — such as the ECO-RYIMZ and ECO-RYIMZW, extending the lineup to eco-conscious buyers without compromising safety ratings

Built Tough, Designed Thoughtfully

Occunomix highway vests are constructed with colorfast dyes, tear-resistant fabrics, and reinforced stitching, ensuring that visibility and structural integrity hold up through long shifts and repeated washing. Hi-vis yellow/lime and orange are the primary color options, but additional colors like black, blue, pink, and red are available to support role differentiation across a work crew. Sizing typically runs from S through 5XL, making it easier for employers to outfit every member of a diverse team. Women's-specific cuts are also available in select styles.
