FAQs

What does EN ISO 20471 Class 1 certification mean?

Class 1 is the lowest class of high-visibility clothing under the EN ISO 20471 standard. It indicates a minimum area of fluorescent and retroreflective material, suitable for environments where background visibility is high and risks are lower, and typically used for less demanding tasks or when combined with higher-class garments.

Is this t-shirt suitable for all types of work?

This t-shirt is certified to Class 1, which may not be sufficient for all high-risk work environments. Always consult your workplace safety regulations to ensure Class 1 certification meets the required visibility standards for your specific job.

Can I wear this t-shirt in cold weather?

Yes, the long sleeves provide additional coverage. For colder conditions, it can be effectively layered under a hi-vis jacket or sweatshirt to increase both warmth and overall visibility class.

How do I ensure the reflective tape lasts?

To maintain the reflective properties, avoid harsh chemicals, bleach, and high heat when washing and drying. Gentle washing and air drying are recommended. Avoid ironing directly on the reflective tape.

What is the main material of the t-shirt?

The t-shirt is made from 100% cotton, single jersey, weighing 180 g/m².

Does the t-shirt have a specific fit?

The product description indicates a standard fit suitable for adult males, with a crew neck and reinforced seams for durability. Specific fit details can vary slightly between sizes.

What colors are available?

This specific product is blue with orange accents and reflective stripes. Other color variations, such as black/yellow, are available in the Blaklader 3510 range.

Troubleshooting

Reflective tape peeling or cracking

Ensure washing instructions are followed, specifically avoiding high heat drying and harsh detergents. Consider air drying. If the issue persists after proper care, the reflective tape may be nearing the end of its lifespan.

Color fading significantly

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when not in use. Wash with like colors and use a mild detergent. High heat washing or drying can accelerate fading.

Shrinking after washing

Use the recommended low heat setting for tumble drying. Air drying is the best method to prevent shrinkage. Ensure the garment is not over-dried in the dryer.

Reduced visibility in low light

Ensure the reflective tape is clean. Dirt and grime can obscure its reflectivity. Follow the care instructions to maintain the integrity of the reflective material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This t-shirt requires no setup, as it is ready to wear upon purchase. It is compatible with standard laundry procedures. To maintain its high-visibility properties and fabric integrity:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at a maximum of 60°C (140°F).
  2. Bleaching: Do not bleach.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting.
  4. Ironing: Iron at a medium temperature (max 150°C/300°F).

Follow these care instructions to preserve the reflective tape and fabric quality over time. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade the reflective material.
