High-visibility garments are certified according to EN ISO 20471 and make the user visible to the environment in daylight, darkness and in bad weather.

The certified class can be achieved with a single garment or a garment combination. A class 3 garment shall cover the torso and shall have either sleeves with reflectors or full-length trouser legs with reflectors.

For whom?

Protects against:
Accidents in areas often involving vehicles, such as roads and railways. Class 1 or 2 garments can be combined in different ways in order to achieve a higher level of safety classification.  See our co-certification table here .
