ANSI Type P Class 2 Safety Vests
Match Garment Type, Class, and Identification to the Public-Safety Assignment
Compare public-safety identification and high-visibility vests for police, fire, EMS, incident response, traffic control, and emergency operations. Review role markings, breakaway construction, closure, pockets, reflective layout, color, sizing, and bulk quantities before ordering.
ANSI/ISEA Type P apparel is intended for first responders and emergency personnel. Type identifies the expected use setting, while Performance Class addresses visible material and garment design. Confirm the exact Type P Class 2 designation on the garment label and current manufacturer documentation.
The words public safety, police, fire, sheriff, reflective, or Class 2 do not by themselves establish Type P compliance. Select apparel using the agency or employer hazard assessment, assignment, traffic exposure, lighting, weather, identification needs, fit, and the verified label. Do not treat standard high-visibility apparel as flame resistant or arc rated unless that protection is specifically documented.
