day.
Models and categories :
There are three categories of high visibility garments. Each one
must have minimal surfaces of materials constituting the garment
in accordance with the table below.
The garments must be composed of the required surfaces of fluorescent
base material and retro-reflecting material.

: waterproofness (0 to 3)
Y : evaporative resistance (0
to 3), i.e. the garment’s breathability level. |

If the garment has a thermal
lining, a second pictogram is added :
X
: evaporative resistance
Y : thermal resistance. |

« Protective
garments against electrostatic charges »
This standard specifies the electrostatic requirements and the test
methods for the protective garments dispersing static electricity
in order to avoid sparks that may cause fire.

«
Protective garments for industry workers exposed to heat (except
garments for firemen and welders) »
A : limited resistance to flames.
B : resistance to convective heat (1 to 5)
C : resistance to radiant heat (1 to 4)
D : resistance to molten aluminium splashing (1 to 3)
E : resistance to molten metal splashing (1 to 3)
This category II protective garment aims at protecting industry
workers against short-time contacts with a flame and against at
least one kind of heat, among the following:
- convective heatve
- radiant heat
