High Visibility Safety Clothing

What Is High Visibility Safety Clothing?

High Visibility Safety ClothingHigh visibility safety clothing is a type of work clothing that improves the visual recognition of the wearer’s presence by the surrounding environment and allows the wearer to work safely.

The purpose is to make the wearer’s presence conspicuous to vehicle drivers and machine operators in any light under the front lights of vehicles, heavy machinery, construction equipment, etc., in dangerous places and situations where the wearer is likely to be overlooked by others, such as in bright or dark places, thereby enabling safe work at construction sites and work sites.

Uses of High Visibility Safety Clothing

High visibility safety clothing is used in a variety of workplaces where recognition from the surrounding environment is required.

Principle of High Visibility Safety Clothing

The most important element of high visibility safety clothing is high visibility materials (fluorescent fabrics and retroreflective materials) that can be seen from all directions in 360 degrees.

Fluorescent fabrics used in this safety clothing are mainly limited to fluorescent red, yellow, and orange colors that are highly effective in alerting people to their surroundings, such as red and yellow.

Fluorescent colors are colors that emit wavelengths longer than those absorbed by the color, making them appear more vivid than ordinary colors.

Retro-reflective materials are materials that have the property that light incident from one direction is reflected in the same direction after being irradiated on the surface.

Retro-reflective materials are mainly made of micro glass bead coated or prismatic materials.

Both of these materials utilize the refractive properties of light, and the principle is that incoming light is refracted repeatedly within the processed material and reflected in the same direction from which the light has traveled.

In addition, the design of the safety clothing itself is an extremely important factor in promoting work safety, rather than simply using these materials in a haphazard manner.
