Syzmik High Visibility Standard Workwear Range

Hi-vis Workwear is a crucial requirement in industries where a significant proportion of the work occurs near traffic, cranes, machinery, or other moving vehicles in Australia and throughout most of the world. It is also essential for staff undertaking night-time operations or working in other poor light conditions. The main role of hi-vis clothing is to make the Wearer stand out from the dark background so she/he can be clearly visible from all angles. This significant reduces the risk of accidents occurring in potentially dangerous situations.

As Hi-Vis plays such a vital role in the safety of workers, it is important to understand the standard requirements to ensure your staff are wearing high visibility cloth that is compliant with the Australian High Visibility Standard, for more information please Visit AS/NZS 4602.1-2011 – Standards Australia.

Syzmik Brands compliant with High Visibility Standards as below

AS/NZS 1906.4: 2010 Retroreflective materials and devices for road traffic control purposes – High visibility materials for safety garments

This standard explains the use of hi-visibility fabrics and retroreflective materials. It specifies the chromaticity levels to which fabrics need to be dyed in terms of performance and atmospheric pressures in order to comply safety standards. Natural fibre garments have a lower chromaticity level due to the nature of the fabric. However, only when a polyester garment is deemed a risk to the wearer in certain applications, should cotton or wool be worn in its place.

Class F = Daytime fluorescent

Class R = Retroreflective material

Class RF = Retroreflective and fluorescent

Class NF = High daytime visibility NON Fluorescent

AS/NZS 4602.1: 2011 High visibility safety garments

This standard refers to how a garment is constructed using fabrics compliant to 1906.4 above. There has to be over 0.2m2 of unbroken fluoro fabric on both the front and back of a garment in the upper torso (not including the sleeves). The fluoro must not be broken with non fluoro fabric within the 0.2m2 area on both the front and back from the top of the shoulders to the waist and MUST encircle the body up to that measurement, so no full side panels up to armpit level are permitted. This standard also explains the position of the retroreflective tapes on the garment and the width and quantity used. These tapes should not detract from the 0.2m2 measurement required.

Class D = Daytime use

Class N = Night time use using retroreflective material

Class D/N = Day/night use

AS 4399:2020 Sun Protective Clothing (UV Protection)

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.
