Cooling Vests & Hydration Solutions
Cooling vests and hydration products take summer safety one step further. Cooling vests are designed to regulate body temperature by using lightweight, evaporative technology that provides relief in high-heat environments. Paired with Thorzt hydration solutions — including electrolyte drinks and rehydration products — workers can protect themselves against heat stress while keeping energy levels steady.
These products are ideal for industries where shade is limited and physical effort is constant, such as construction, landscaping and outdoor trades. By combining breathable workwear with smart cooling accessories, workers gain a practical, reliable defence against the challenges of working in the heat.
With the right gear, long summer days become safer, more manageable and less of a strain on workers.

Frequently Asked Questions
What fabrics are best for summer workwear?
Lightweight, breathable fabrics like cotton and polyester blends are the most popular for hot-weather workwear. Cotton is highly breathable and absorbs sweat, while polyester dries faster and resists wear. Many modern summer uniforms combine both, offering comfort and durability in one.
How do evaporative cooling vests work?
Evaporative cooling vests are designed to keep body temperature down in hot conditions. The vest is soaked in water, then gently wrung out before being worn. As the water evaporates from the fabric, it creates a natural cooling effect that helps the wearer stay comfortable and reduce the risk of heat stress. These vests are lightweight, reusable and ideal for outdoor workers who need long-lasting relief from the heat without restricting movement.
What are signs of heat stress on the job?
Early signs of heat stress include dizziness, fatigue, muscle cramps, heavy sweating and nausea. If not addressed, it can escalate into heat stroke, a serious medical emergency. Preventing heat stress starts with wearing the right summer workwear, staying hydrated and taking regular breaks in the shade.
