FAQs

What does EN ISO 20471:2013 Class 3 certification mean?

This certification indicates that the garment meets specific standards for high-visibility clothing. Class 3 is the highest level, signifying the greatest degree of visibility, typically required for workers at high risk or in complex environments.

Does the certification apply to all sizes of the Addvis Long Sleeve T-Shirt?

No, the certification level varies. Sizes S and above are certified to Class 3, while size XS is certified to Class 2. Ensure you select the size appropriate for your required visibility standard.

Can I wear this shirt for general outdoor activities?

While the shirt is comfortable and made of a soft fabric, its primary purpose is workwear with Hi-Vis certification. For general outdoor activities not requiring high visibility, other specialized apparel might be more suitable.

What is the material of the shirt?

The shirt is made of 100% Polyester with a weight of 143 g/m², featuring 4-way stretch fabric.

How should I wash the shirt to maintain its reflective properties?

Wash in lukewarm water at 40°C, do not bleach, tumble dry on low heat, and do not iron or dry clean. Crucially, do not use fabric softener, as it can degrade the reflective elements and material.

Is the fit suitable for layering?

The Addvis Long Sleeve T-Shirt has a regular fit, making it suitable for layering over a base layer or under a heavier work jacket, depending on weather conditions.

What is the weight of the fabric?

The fabric weight is 143 g/m², which is considered a lightweight to mid-weight fabric suitable for comfort and breathability during work.

Troubleshooting

Reduced visibility after washing

Ensure that fabric softener was not used and that the garment was not ironed. Follow all wash care instructions precisely.

Fabric feels stiff or less flexible

Check for improper drying methods (e.g., high heat) or residual detergent. Re-wash following the care instructions carefully.

Seams or stitching coming undone

Inspect the garment for potential wear and tear. Minor issues might be repairable with appropriate sewing, but significant damage may require replacement for safety integrity.
