Collection: Head lamps

A head (- and helmet) lamp is a particularly useful tool for performing work in a dark working environment. You can easily fit the head lamp around your head, allowing you to illuminate your surroundings and also continue to use your hands freely while working. Because the strap to which the lamp is attached is elastic and adjustable, it can often also be placed on a helmet, so that not only light is guaranteed, but also protection of your head. If you want to provide lighting at work in an easy and practical way, a head lamp is an excellent option. You can choose from a selection of good quality head lamps via the Unishore Workwear webshop. This not only makes it easier to do your work, but it also ensures extra high visibility. Ideal if you work in traffic, for example.

Differences in headlamps

In our webshop you can buy, among others, the Petzl Pixa 1 and the Petzl Pixa 2. Both head lamps are very suitable for doing your work at night outdoors or in an unlit indoor space. The main difference is that the Pixa 1 only has one mode, while the Pixa 2 has two: one for close-range work and one for work that requires movement. In terms of functionalities, these head lamps can be compared with each other. They have an easily adjustable headband, which makes the lamps comfortable to wear, a rotating switch to turn the light on and off and a housing that can be adjusted up to 45 degrees. The battery can last at least six hours and both models have a backup light, so the head lamp can provide light for about 10 hours after the battery is empty.

In addition, both Pixa headlamps are waterproof to a limited extent. They cannot be used to illuminate long-term underwater work, but they can easily handle 30 minutes at a depth of one meter. If the lamp is submerged under water for half an hour or less, no maintenance is required on the lamp when you emerge. The resistance to shocks is also excellent with Petzl head lamps. They will survive a fall of two meters without any damage. Due to this strong character and the rotatability of the lamp housing, the lamp can also be placed on the ground. Sometimes a head lamp does not shine at the right angle on a material on the ground. In that case, the Petzl Pixa is more helpful than some other head lamps.

Headlamp: increased visibility

A head lamp is one of the most important personal protective equipment to increase your visibility. This means that it is not only pleasant for you, but also for those around you, if you wear a head lamp. This is one of the many resources in our webshop that can be used for increased visibility. In addition to the Petzl head lamps, we have various Portwest LED lights that can be attached to your clothing in different ways. There are flashing lights that can be clicked around the upper arm, but also special clips that you can attach to your shoes or another piece of clothing, for example. There is even an LED light that can be attached to the zipper of your jacket or backpack. These lamps all have a flashing function, which allows you to stand out if desired.

However, lights are not the only way to ensure that you are seen in the dark. We also have various Hi-Vis work jackets, safety vests and work trousers in our range. “Hi-Vis” stands for “high visibility”. All these items of work clothing are designed with the idea that someone who works in the dark should be able to be seen clearly, for example by nearby traffic. When light shines on this clothing, you will immediately be seen by the reflective stripes on the clothing. This work clothing also stands out during the day or in a lit work environment. That is why they have been given their striking yellow or orange color: there is no circumstance in which these colors stand out against the background.
