New GO/RT Clothing coming in September this year

01 August 2015

These details are correct as of 9th July 2014.

The high-visibility clothing standard is presented in the Railway Group Standards document, titled 'High Visibility Clothing'.

The importance of these  standards is to ensure the safety of all workers and maintenance teams  whilst working on railway lines. Regardless of whether the line is live  or not, it is a mandatory requirement that high visibility clothing is  to be worn with track or lineside working.

Typically, such GO/RT clothing  products feature high-visibility vests, overalls, jackets and polo  shirts. These two new products, coming in stock from early September,  revolutionise the current rail industry standard clothing. 


First on the list, we have the  new GO/RT Hooded Sweatshirt. This product conforms to the Level 2 GO/RT  3279:2008 standard, giving you the comfort that these products meet the national Railway Group Standards. 


This product is ideal for the  more modern user, with the attached hood and cords to allow for  adjustment to meet the user's requirements. The inclusion of the front  pocket allows for storage space if required by the user. So, why wait?  This new stock is an opportunity not to be missed!

Both the European Standards and  Railway Group Standard require that all high-visibility clothing  products incorporate both fluorescent and retro-reflective materials.  GO/RT 3279 specifies orange for the fluorescent colour to be used for  the clothing. All of our products that we feature on our website conform  to these standards.


For our final product, we have the new GO/RT Sweatshirt, which also conforms to the Level 2 GO/RT 3279:2008 standard.


With the upcoming Autumn  conditions, these two new products are ideal. The  high quality hem, cuffs and 280gsm fabric give you the protection you  need to suit your requirements. 

Both of these products range in size from Small to XXXXL. Make sure you order early to get your products whilst stocks last. 

Granite Workwear - we only sell the good stuff.


the implementation of these standards has resulted in work to be carried  out and completed in a safe manner. This September, there is a launch of  two new GO/RT standard products to the rail industry range, which offer  the user a different style of clothing than previously seen before.
