Dust extraction systems
Hazardous area installations
Hi-Vis Hose
A high-visibility fluorescent hose designed for environments where hose location and safety awareness are essential. Durable, reinforced and easy to identify in low-light or high-traffic areas.
Key Features
Bright fluorescent outer cover for maximum visibility
Reinforced construction for industrial use
Excellent abrasion and UV resistance
Flexible and easy to handle
Applications
Public or pedestrian-accessible zones
Wash-down and cleaning areas
Events, hire industry and temporary installations
Areas requiring clear safety demarcation
How to Select the Right Hose For Your Requirement
Check media compatibility - what material is being transferred (chemical, water, air, powder)? Choose liner materials accordingly
Verify pressure and temperature ratings - know your operating pressure, burst margin, and ambient or fluid temperature range
Assess environmental demands - abrasion, UV exposure, site handling, chemical spray, static risk, or public area visibility
Understand compliance and safety features - for anti-static hoses, ensure proper grounding and standards compliance
End-fittings and assembly - specialist hoses often require matching fittings, clamps or crimping; consider full assembly if needed
Future proofing & maintenance - choose hoses that are resilient, easy to replace, and supported commercially to minimise downtime
