</li>
<li data-start="696" data-end="843">
<p data-start="698" data-end="843">Finish: Treated with a <strong data-start="721" data-end="757">C0 Durable Water Repellent (DWR)</strong> finish to add stain or light-rain resistance.</p>
</li>
<li data-start="844" data-end="963">
<p data-start="846" data-end="963">Inner: Brushed inner face (fleece-style) for wearer comfort against the skin.</p>

<li data-start="964" data-end="1115">
<p data-start="966" data-end="1115">Fit/Design: Ribbed, stretchy cuffs for comfort and movement; quarter-zip design gives adjustable ventilation.</p>

<p data-start="1953" data-end="2139"><strong data-start="1953" data-end="1975">Comfort &amp; layering</strong>: As a fleece style quarter zip, it works well as a mid-layer under outer shells (for cold/wet conditions) or on its own when less weather protection is required.</p>
</li>
<li data-start="2140" data-end="2282">
<p data-start="2142" data-end="2282"><strong data-start="2142" data-end="2157">Ventilation</strong>: The quarter-zip allows the wearer to regulate temperature when active or when moving between indoor/outdoor environments.</p>
</li>
<li data-start="2283" data-end="2414">
<p data-start="2285" data-end="2414"><strong data-start="2285" data-end="2314">Fabric Stretch &amp; Movement</strong>: The ribbed cuffs and flexible design support mobility, which is important for active work roles.</p>
</li>
<li data-start="2415" data-end="2559">
<p data-start="2417" data-end="2559"><strong data-start="2417" data-end="2441">High Visibility Role</strong>: Designed for workers on road maintenance, rail (Orange Only), highways or general construction where Hi-Vis Class 3 is required.</p>
</li>
<li data-start="2560" data-end="2758">
<p data-start="2562" data-end="2758"><strong data-start="2562" data-end="2580">Sustainability</strong>: The use of 100% recycled polyester and attention to environmentally safer finishes (C0 DWR rather than PFAS heavy) suggests PULSAR’s intent to reduce environmental footprint.</p>
</li>
</ul>

<p data-start="2798" data-end="2814"><strong data-start="2798" data-end="2812">Strengths:</strong></p>
<ul data-start="2815" data-end="3194">
<li data-start="2815" data-end="2916">
<p data-start="2817" data-end="2916">High-visibility Class 3 certification means it meets strict safety standards in visibility zones.</p>
</li>
<li data-start="2917" data-end="3019">
<p data-start="2919" data-end="3019">Quarter-zip design offers more flexibility than a full zip or pullover, good for layering systems.</p>
</li>
<li data-start="3020" data-end="3097">
<p data-start="3022" data-end="3097">Comfortable fleece-style inner means good wearability over longer shifts.</p>
</li>
<li data-start="3098" data-end="3194">
<p data-start="3100" data-end="3194">Sustainable materials give a plus for corporate responsibility and eco-conscious purchasing.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p data-start="3196" data-end="3217"><strong data-start="3196" data-end="3215">Considerations:</strong></p>
<ul data-start="3218" data-end="3729">
<li data-start="3218" data-end="3343">
<p data-start="3220" data-end="3343">It is <strong data-start="3226" data-end="3233">not</strong> a waterproof outer shell — it’s a mid-layer. So in heavy rain you’ll still need an outer waterproof jacket.</p>
</li>
<li data-start="3344" data-end="3506">
<p data-start="3346" data-end="3506">Hi-Vis orange variant may be required for certain environments (rail, highways) rather than yellow—so ensure you pick the correct variant for your regulation.</p>
</li>
<li data-start="3507" data-end="3729">
<p data-start="3509" data-end="3729">Because it&#8217;s designed as a mid-layer, features like taped seams, high hydrostatic head, etc (which you’d see in outer shells) are not included here—it focuses on visibility and comfort rather than full weatherproofing.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<hr data-start="3731" data-end="3734" />
<h3 data-start="3736" data-end="3749">Summary</h3>
<p data-start="3750" data-end="4239">If you’re looking for a functional, high-visibility mid-layer that balances safety certification, comfort and sustainability, the PULSAR REACT RCT805 &amp; 804 is a strong choice. Particularly suited for active roles in outdoor or semi-outdoor environments (rail (Orange), highways, utilities) where you’re visible and mobile, but not necessarily exposed to heavy rain all the time. If you anticipate needing full waterproof protection, you’d pair it with a waterproof shell (such as RCT800/RCT801) on top.</p>
<hr data-start="4241" data-end="4244" />
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>A stylish and warm mid-layer, crafted from 100% recycled polyester. This versatile, eco-conscious essential offers extra-soft comfort for when the temperature drops.</p>

It is the orange version of the sweatshirt (the yellow version being RCT806) and is targeted at sectors such as rail and highways where Hi-Vis Orange is mandated.</p>
<h3 data-start="445" data-end="475">Materials &amp; Construction</h3>
<ul data-start="476" data-end="1137">
<li data-start="476" data-end="582">
<p data-start="478" data-end="582">Fabric: Made from <strong data-start="496" data-end="523">100% recycled polyester</strong> for the main body.</p>
</li>
<li data-start="583" data-end="744">
<p data-start="585" data-end="744">Outer face: Smooth, clean‐faced fabric for a smart aesthetic; inner lining: soft brushed fleece for comfort and warmth.</p>
</li>
<li data-start="745" data-end="914">
<p data-start="747" data-end="914">Finish: Treated with a <strong data-start="770" data-end="806">C0 durable water-repellent (DWR)</strong> finish to offer light protection against stains and light moisture.</p>
</li>
<li data-start="915" data-end="1137">
<p data-start="917" data-end="1137">Fit &amp; detailing: Ribbed collar, cuffs and hem ensure fit retention and warmth. Segmented reflective tape typically at shoulders/front &amp; back forming shoulder braces for visibility.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<h3 data-start="1139" data-end="1171">Visibility &amp; Certification</h3>
<ul data-start="1172" data-end="1672">
<li data-start="1172" data-end="1343">
<p data-start="1174" data-end="1343">As the RCT807 is the orange sweatshirt variant, it meets <strong data-start="1231" data-end="1270">EN ISO 20471:2013 + A1:2016 Class 3</strong> for high-visibility performance.</p>
</li>
<li data-start="1344" data-end="1515">
<p data-start="1346" data-end="1515">Additionally, for the orange version in the rail industry, it conforms to <strong data-start="1420" data-end="1449">RIS-3279-TOM Issue 2:2019</strong> (Orange, rail industry standard).</p>
</li>
<li data-start="1516" data-end="1672">
<p data-start="1518" data-end="1672">The gear is certified to maintain its performance for <strong data-start="1572" data-end="1596">25 industrial washes</strong> (maintaining Hi-Vis functionality).</p>
</li>
</ul>
<h3 data-start="1674" data-end="1703">Key Features &amp; Benefits</h3>
<ul data-start="1704" data-end="2639">
<li data-start="1704" data-end="1885">
<p data-start="1706" data-end="1885"><strong data-start="1706" data-end="1726">Comfort &amp; warmth</strong>: The brushed fleece inner provides good insulation for mid-layer usage—ideal when working outdoors in cooler conditions or when layering under outer shells.</p>
</li>
<li data-start="1886" data-end="2056">
<p data-start="1888" data-end="2056"><strong data-start="1888" data-end="1907">High visibility</strong>: The segmented reflective tape with shoulder braces enhances visibility from multiple angles—important for safety in busy or low-light work zones.</p>
</li>
<li data-start="2057" data-end="2225">
<p data-start="2059" data-end="2225"><strong data-start="2059" data-end="2079">Smart appearance</strong>: The smooth outer face gives a more tailored look compared to bulky outer shells—useful when transitioning between site and office or meetings.</p>
</li>
<li data-start="2226" data-end="2395">
<p data-start="2228" data-end="2395"><strong data-start="2228" data-end="2255">Sustainable credentials</strong>: Use of 100% recycled polyester and C0 DWR indicates a reduced environmental footprint—an important consideration for many organisations.</p>
</li>
<li data-start="2396" data-end="2639">
<p data-start="2398" data-end="2639"><strong data-start="2398" data-end="2422">Layering versatility</strong>: As a mid‐layer, it can be worn alone in milder conditions or under a waterproof shell when rain or wind is present—this flexibility is highlighted in the REACT range launch.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<h3 data-start="2641" data-end="2677">Use Case &amp; Target Applications</h3>
<ul data-start="2678" data-end="3163">
<li data-start="2678" data-end="2841">
<p data-start="2680" data-end="2841">For personnel working on rail, highway, utilities or transport infrastructure where <strong data-start="2764" data-end="2789">Hi-Vis Orange Class 3</strong> is required and compliance to RIS-3279 is needed.</p>
</li>
<li data-start="2842" data-end="3042">
<p data-start="2844" data-end="3042">Ideal as a comfortable mid-layer for active roles (e.g., engineers, inspectors, site supervisors) where mobility, warmth and visibility matter—but full waterproof outerwear might not be essential.</p>
</li>
<li data-start="3043" data-end="3163">
<p data-start="3045" data-end="3163">Suitable for transitional weather when a full shell isn’t needed but additional insulation and visibility is required.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<h3 data-start="3165" data-end="3197">Strengths &amp; Considerations</h3>
<p data-start="3198" data-end="3214"><strong data-start="3198" data-end="3212">Strengths:</strong></p>
<ul data-start="3215" data-end="3482">
<li data-start="3215" data-end="3357">
<p data-start="3217" data-end="3357">Excellent specification for a sweatshirt-type garment: high visibility certification, durable fabric, comfort features and sustainability.</p>
</li>
<li data-start="3358" data-end="3429">
<p data-start="3360" data-end="3429">Offers great value when used correctly as part of a layered system.</p>
</li>
<li data-start="3430" data-end="3482">
<p data-start="3432" data-end="3482">Good fit and finish for professional presentation.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p data-start="3484" data-end="3505"><strong data-start="3484" data-end="3503">Considerations:</strong></p>
<ul data-start="3506" data-end="3914">
<li data-start="3506" data-end="3643">
<p data-start="3508" data-end="3643">Not a waterproof or windproof outer shell—if working in heavy rain or extreme conditions, you’ll still need a dedicated outer jacket like our <a href="https://ppestore.co.uk/product/pulsar-react-grs-shell-jacket-various-colours/">RCT800 Or 801</a></p>
</li>
<li data-start="3644" data-end="3755">
<p data-start="3646" data-end="3755">As a mid-layer, layering strategy is important: ensure that you have adequate outer protection if required.</p>
</li>
<li data-start="3756" data-end="3914">
<p data-start="3758" data-end="3914">Colour choice is vital: Orange is mandated in certain sectors (rail) and might not be required or appropriate in others—check your site/site-requirements.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<h3 data-start="3916" data-end="3929">Summary</h3>
<p data-start="3930" data-end="4532">The PULSAR REACT RCT807 &amp; 806 sweatshirt offers a highly capable, comfortable and compliant high-visibility mid-layer solution. It is particularly suited for the rail, highway or utility sectors where Hi­Vis Orange, Class 3 visibility and RIS-3279 compliance are required. With its recycled fabric construction, comfort‐oriented fleece interior, and smart outer appearance, it makes for a strong choice when you need both performance and professional presentation—but keep in mind that it’s intended as a mid-layer, so pairing with appropriate outerwear for cold, wet or extreme conditions remains important.</p>

<p data-start="5461" data-end="5638"><strong data-start="5461" data-end="5487">Sector / Certification</strong>: RCT801 includes RIS 3279-TOM certification for rail – if you’re working in rail/track environments, that may make the RCT801 the compliance-choice.</p>
