Retro reflective materials and devices for road traffic control purposes - High-visibility materials for safety garments
This standard specifies the chromaticity levels to which fabrics need to be dyed in terms of performance and atmospheric pressures in order to comply to the standard. Natural fibre garments have a lower chromaticity level due to the nature of the fabric.Class F Daytime fluorescent Class R Retroreflective materialClass RF Retroreflective and fluorescent Class NF High daytime visibility NON Fluorescent

High visibility safety garments – Garments for high risk applications
There should be no less then 0.2m2 of unbroken hi visibility fabric on both the front and back of any garment that covers the upper torso. High visibility fabric must not be broken with non compliant fabric within the 0.2m2 area from the top of the shoulders to the waist, so no full side panels at armpit level are permitted.This standard also explains the position of the retroreflective tapes on the garment, the width and quantity used. These tapes should not detract from the 0.2m2 measurement required.Class D Daytime useClass N Night time use using retroreflective materialClass D/N Day/night use

Sun protective clothing — Evaluation and classification
This standard refers to the capability of a fabric to protect skin against solar ultra violet radiation (known as UPF = ultra violet protection factor). This standard is an additional bonus to the garment rather than an essential requirement for hi-visibility standards but often specified from specific industry users.
Please note: Excessively large embroidery may jeopardise the classification of the hi-visibility safety garment. Embroidery on wet weather jackets may also impair the waterproofing properties of the garment. Please seek professional advice.
