About this category
High-visibility performance depends on two layers: fluorescent fabric that absorbs UV and re-emits visible light by day (making it appear brighter), and reflective tape that returns headlight light to the driver by night. EN ISO 20471 background colours are fluorescent yellow, fluorescent orange-red and fluorescent red; colour alone does not prove compliance without documented background and tape performance. EN ISO 20471 classes: Class 1 (0.14 m² fluorescent + 0.10 m² reflective) for low-risk sites, Class 2 (0.50 + 0.13) for medium safety, Class 3 (0.80 + 0.20) for the highest protection on highways and night work. Models include high-visibility vests, rain jackets, long-sleeve shirts, and integrated hi-vis shirts and trousers. Fabrics are treated polyester or polyester-cotton blends with retroreflective tape at the arms and body. A technical note: effectiveness drops with time and laundering; the manufacturer states the maximum number of wash cycles on the garment label. Scheduled inspection and replacement are needed when colors fade or reflective tape is damaged. Applications: construction sites, roadworks and maintenance, truck drivers, airport apron staff, cleaning crews, and emergency teams. Specifications follow EN ISO 20471 (Europe) and ANSI/ISEA 107 (US).
