FAQs
What does EN ISO 20471:2013 Class 2/3 certification mean?
This certification indicates the garment meets specific standards for high-visibility clothing. Class 2 signifies a moderate level of visibility, typically for sizes XS, while Class 3 offers the highest level of visibility and is required for sizes S and larger, ensuring you are clearly seen in various work conditions.
Is this garment suitable for cold weather?
The Addvis Longsleeve is primarily designed for visibility and comfort. While it can be layered for warmth, it does not offer significant insulation on its own. For very cold conditions, consider layering it over thermal base layers or under insulated outerwear.
How does the 4-way stretch fabric benefit me?
The 4-way stretch fabric allows the material to stretch in all four directions (lengthwise and widthwise). This provides exceptional flexibility and freedom of movement, making it easier to perform tasks that require bending, reaching, or stretching without the garment restricting your motion.
What is the recommended washing temperature?
The garment is machine washable at 40°C (104°F). Using this temperature helps to effectively clean the fabric while preserving its color, reflective properties, and overall integrity.
Can I use bleach on this garment?
No, you should not use bleach on the Helly Hansen Workwear Addvis Longsleeve. Bleach can damage the fabric fibers and significantly reduce the garment's high-visibility properties.
What sizes are available?
This specific product listing is for size XL. The Addvis Longsleeve is available in a range of sizes, including XS, S, M, L, XL, XXL, XXXL, and XXXXL, catering to various adult body types.
What is the material composition?
The garment is made from 100% Polyester.
Troubleshooting
Garment feels too tight or restrictive
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Check the size chart provided by Helly Hansen. If the issue persists, consider if a larger size would be more appropriate for your intended use and layering.
Reduced visibility after washing
Verify that the washing instructions (40°C, mild detergent) have been followed. Avoid harsh detergents or bleach, which can degrade the fabric and color, impacting visibility. Ensure the garment is dried correctly and not over-ironed.
Fabric feels less soft over time
Use fabric softener sparingly during washes. Ensure the garment is not washed at excessively high temperatures. Air drying can sometimes help maintain fabric softness better than high-heat tumble drying.
