Juba. Glove and workwear specialist

In the most demanding work environments, being seen is not just an advantage, it's a necessity. Juba's high-visibility clothing line is designed to provide effective protection in low-light conditions, meeting the highest regulatory standards. However, it's not just about meeting the standard: it's about going above and beyond. Technology that marks a difference: now with segmented bands As part of this evolution, Juba incorporates the segmented band in its high visibility collection. This technology, substituting traditional reflective bands, is an innovation that improves comfort without compromising safety. Unlike traditional reflective bands, which are continuous and more rigid, the segmented band is composed of small sections that are strategically integrated into the garment, bringing great benefits to the wearer. Why choose segmented banded garments? Greater freedom of movement: thanks to their flexible design, these bands allow a more natural fit to the body, ideal for jobs that require constant mobility. Greater breathability: thanks to its segmented band, the garment breathes better and reduces heat and moisture, an important point in warm climates or physically demanding jobs. Certified high reflectivity: the interrupted segment design meets reflectivity standards. Long-lasting durability: materials are uniformly integrated into the fabric, increasing resistance to wear and abrasion and maintaining their properties even after multiple washings. Easy care. Friction resistance. Juba references with segmented bands The segmented band is already a reality within Juba's catalog preview. Among the references that include this innovation, the following stand out: The ‘Belfast’ technical polo shirt made with ‘eye bird’ sports fabric, which combines a cotton inner layer (55% in its composition) for greater comfort with polyester outer layer (45% of 150g/m²), which enhances the fixation of the fluorine color. This fabric is characterized for being: Breathable Pleasant to touch (due to the cotton) Somewhat resistant thanks to the polyester Ideal for warm weather or indoor activities Now Juba has this reference in two color combinations:  Yellow and blue (HVS740DYN)  Orange and blue (HVS740ORDN) On the other hand, the new reference with segmented band ‘London’ made of breathable sports fabric (100% polyester), which makes it: Very lightweight and quick drying Resistant to wear and frequent washing Less moisture absorption (hardly recommended in extreme heat) Ideal for warm weather or physically demanding work activities In the case of the short-sleeve shirt the availability of colors is:  Orange (HVS621OR) Yellow (HVS621Y) Orange and blue (HVS621ORDN)  Yellow and blue (HVS621YDN) While, in the polo shirt, the color options are as follows: Orange (HVS620OR) Yellow (HVS620Y) Orange and blue (HVS620ORDN)  Yellow and blue (HVS620YDN) Yellow and green (HVS620YMG) Yellow and grey (HVS620YGY) The ‘Fragata’ windbreaker jacket also has a segmented reflective band. The jacket is certified against cold and breathable, available in two possible color combinations: Yellow and black (HVS9910B) Yellow and blue (HVS9910DN) All these new references by Juba are EN ISO 20471-certified for hi-visibility clothing and all of them are Class 1, which includes clothing required when risks are minimal. Their design allows professionals to be detected from vehicles traveling at speeds of less than 40 km/h (25 mph). Some examples of professionals wearing Class 1 garments are: Parking staff. Staff removing shopping carts in shopping mall parking lots. Workers exposed to traffic in warehouses. Pavement maintenance workers. Safety and comfort, without compromising anything Juba's high-visibility clothing with segmented bands sets a new standard in work protection. Each garment is designed to adapt to the pace of daily work, offering a solution that combines visibility, comfort, strength and style. Because when it comes to protecting yourself, it's not enough to look good, you must feel good.

Safety is always the priority in any workwear equipment. However, this premise should not be at odds with style, comfort and visual coherence. Aware of this evolution, Juba has taken a step forward and presented their first Lookbook, a visual tool designed to inspire, guide and facilitate the choice of workwear with a modern, functional proposal. A visual guide for demanding professionals The Lookbook was created with a clear purpose: to show, in a clear and attractive way, real combinations of clothes from Juba's hi-visibility catalogue. Each outfit has been designed not only to comply with safety at work standards but also to convey a coherent professional image, carefully designed and representative of each sector. Through different proposals, the user can visualize how to combine jackets, trousers, technical shirts, polo shirts and accessories, in a range of colours and designs that adapt to different work environments: from logistics and construction to urban maintenance or services. Safety with style: a possible combination This approach not only improves the functionality of workwear, but also reinforces corporate image and the professional perception of teams. Visual coherence among clothes, colours and styles contributes to generate confidence, order and belonging in any organization. The new Juba Lookbook is much more than a product guide: it's a practical source of inspiration that combines textile innovation, work standards and visual design, providing real solutions for those looking to stand out at work without compromising safety. Discover it, get inspired and transform the way you dress in your professional environment.

High visibility clothing is a signalling clothing that follows an official standard to regulate its characteristics and requirements, as well as the working conditions in which each available class must be used. Importance of high visibility clothing High-visibility clothing is designed to provide safety and protection for professionals in work situations where there is a risk due to low light and/or where professionals cannot be detected from certain angles, when using machinery or when driving vehicles. In addition, high-visibility clothing is also recommended for some recreational or sporting activities in low-light areas (running, riding an electric scooter, cycling or walking, among others). High visibility clothing regulations and certifications High visibility clothing is regulated by specific standards and may also have different quality and safety certificates associated with it. This information can be consulted in the descriptive sheet of each reference available at Juba. Legal requirements in Spain The standard governing high-visibility clothing in Europe is EN ISO 20471. This regulation identifies standards in terms of design, materials and performance of hi-visibility clothing and makes a classification, to specify the most suitable according to certain characteristics. Quality and safety certificates In addition to EN ISO 20471 standards, hi-visibility workwear must also have some relevant and other complementary certifications, depending on the risks inherent to each type of work. Classification of high visibility clothing The EN ISO 20471 standard for high visibility clothing distinguishes between three classes, each with specifications related to the working environment and the characteristics of the components that provide increased visibility, such as retro-reflective and fluorescent materials. Each class must have minimum surfaces of visible materials. The garments must consist of the required areas of background material and retro-reflective material. In addition to EN ISO 13688, the pictogram must be indicated, and if the manufacturer indicates a maximum number of cleaning cycles, the number must be added to the marking. The surface area should be measured on the smallest size available for the garment and with the garment closed. EN ISO 20471:2013 X: The number next to the pictogram indicates the class of the garment according to table 1 (class 1 to 3).   Class 1: minimum level Class 1 high visibility clothing includes those garments required when risks are minimal. It is designed to enable professionals to be detected from vehicles travelling at speeds of less than 40 km/h. Examples of workers wearing Class 1 garments are: Car park attendants. Staff removing shopping trolleys from shopping centre car parks. Workers exposed to traffic in warehouses. Pavement maintenance workers. The regulations establish that the garments must include the following: 0.10 m2 of retro-reflective tape (reflective bands). 0.14 m2 of fluorescent background material. 0.20 m2 of combined material (fluorescent and reflective strips). Class 2: intermediate level Class 2 of high visibility clothing includes garments that offer intermediate visibility, so that professionals can be seen in adverse weather conditions and by vehicles or machinery travelling at a speed of no more than 80 km/h. Examples of workers wearing Class 2 garments are: Forestry operations. Ship loading operations. Railway workers. School crossing guards. Delivery vehicle drivers. High volume car park staff. Toll plaza staff. Airport baggage handlers and tarmac crew. Refuse collectors and recycling operations. Accident investigators. The characteristics of the high visibility material in these garments are as follows: 0.13 m2 of retroreflective tape (reflective bands). 0.50 m2 of fluorescent background material. Class 3: high level Class 3 high-visibility clothing has the highest concentration of these materials. It is used by emergency service professionals, as well as in places with road traffic travelling at over 80 km/h. Examples of workers wearing Class 3 garments: Road construction and signalling personnel. Road inspection and maintenance personnel. Emergency and police personnel. The material to be included is as follows: 0.20 m2 of retro-reflective tape (reflective strips). 0.80 m2 of fluorescent background material. Requirements for high visibility clothing Ergonomics and comfort for the professional: Ergonomic factors, fit, size, comfort and degree of movement of the wearer must be correct. Class with ensembles: The protection class of a garment may be determined by a single piece or by the combination of several, such as a jacket and trousers. The highest class must be specified in the information leaflet and on the laundry label of both garments. For a garment to be classified as Class 3 - the highest in visibility - it must cover the torso and have long sleeves or long trousers. Logos: The presence of logos, lettering or labels may not interfere with or reduce the minimum area of visible material required. Retro-reflective stripes must be 5 cm wide and at least 5 cm apart, also maintaining a 5 cm separation from the bottom edge of the garment. Avoid diagonal stripes: It is recommended to avoid diagonal stripes, opting instead for horizontal and vertical stripe designs that offer greater visibility. Colour coordinates and luminance factors should comply with regulatory requirements to ensure proper visibility under different light conditions. Retroreflective stripe: If the sleeve impedes vision it should be surrounded by a retroreflective stripe.
