  Reflective Strip Area Grade 3

  The EN ISO 20471:2013 standard specifies the requirements for high-visibility clothing, with a specific focus on the reflective strip area, a crucial element for ensuring visibility in low-light conditions. A test result achieving Grade 3 indicates the highest level of reflectivity performance in this standard, ensuring optimal visibility and safety for the wearer in various lighting conditions. In grade 3 products reflective tape is 0.20 m2 and fluorescent material is 0.8 m2.The test methodology involves assessing the amount and quality of retroreflective material on garments. This is quantified under precise conditions to ensure that the reflective strips meet stringent visibility requirements even from significant distances or in poor lighting conditions. Garments that meet Grade 3 requirements are suitable for use in high-risk environments where being seen by others is crucial for safety, such as road construction sites, airport ground operations, and other scenarios with high vehicular traffic or complex visual backgrounds.

• EN 13688:2013/A1:2021

  EN 13688:2013/A1:2021 is an amendment to the European standard EN 13688:2013 that specifies the performance requirements for protective clothing. The standard includes requirements for safety, comfort, and durability, as well as tests for determining these properties. Protective clothing includes items like coveralls, aprons, and gloves that are worn to protect the wearer from hazards. The amendment updates the standard to include new test methods and performance requirements. Possible test results include resistance to chemicals, heat, abrasion and tearing, as well as breathability and comfort. The clothing can be tested under different conditions to check if it meets the standard's requirements.

• EN 342:2017

  EN 342:2017 is a European standard that sets out safety requirements for personal protective equipment (PPE) to be used for protection against cold. It is an updated version of the original standard EN 342:2004 and it includes new and improved requirements for the PPE. The standard defines the general requirements for PPE, including design and construction, marking, instructions for use, and packaging. Performance requirements include things like thermal insulation and protection against water penetration, breathability, and test results may include measurements of these properties. The standard also specifies the testing methods that should be used to test PPE, such as measuring the thermal resistance of the materials and the resistance of the garment to water penetration and breathability.

• Oeko-Tex Standard 100

  Oeko-Tex Standard 100 is a product certification program for textiles, which is awarded by the Oeko-Tex Association. This program verifies that the textile products are free from harmful chemicals. To be able to use the Oeko-Tex Standard 100 label, a product must meet certain requirements set by the Oeko-Tex Association which include limits on the levels of harmful substances such as pesticides, heavy metals, and formaldehyde. The textile products are inspected and certified by Oeko-Tex, they can use the Oeko-Tex Standard 100 label on their packaging to show that they are free from harmful chemicals. This certification is for all types of textiles, from raw materials to finished products, and it is globally recognized.
