This recently released standard details minimum garment design requirements for high visibility safety garments for high-risk applications, (firefighting ensemble design specification requirements are found in AS 4602.2). Included in the updated standard are additional classification levels within each category designed to assist consumers with garment selection. Conspicuity increases through each level with the requirement for placement of additional retroreflective tapes loops.
AWTA Product Testing is NATA accredited to perform the full range of tests required for all fabric and retroreflective tape classes of AS/NZS 1906.4-2023.
