Decoding ANSI/ISEA 107-2020:
Class 2 vs. Class 3 Explained
The distinction between Class 2 and Class 3 isn't just about the amount of fabric—it's about the speed of traffic and environmental complexity. Here is the technical breakdown.
Why "Full Sleeves" Define Class 3
You cannot achieve ANSI Class 3 compliance with a vest alone. Why? It's about "Biomotion."
When a driver sees reflective tape on moving limbs (arms), their brain instantly recognizes the object as a "human" rather than a stationary traffic cone. VizGlo's Hi-Vis Hoodies feature 360° reflective bands on the torso and dual bands on the arms, ensuring your team is recognized instantly from any angle.
The Gold Standard: EN ISO 20471
While ANSI governs North America, EN ISO 20471 is the strict international standard followed by Europe and global markets. Unlike older standards, it doesn't just measure the material when it's new—it demands performance after rigorous usage.
The "5-Wash" Failure Risk
Many budget competitors use reflective tapes that pass the initial brightness test but degrade rapidly after just 5 washes. This leaves your workers non-compliant and vulnerable within weeks.
VizGlo Assurance: We certify our hoodies for a minimum of 25 to 50 wash cycles, ensuring luminance stays above 330 cd/lx/m² long-term.
The 3 Levels of Protection (EN ISO 20471):
Mandatory for highways and airports. Requires 0.80m² fluorescent background and 0.20m² reflective material. VizGlo's Full-Zip Hoodies meet this tier.
For standard roadworks and delivery services. Our Hi-Vis Polo shirts and Standard Sweatshirts typically fit here.

Application Scenarios
Which Gear Fits Your Job Site?
Compliance is not one-size-fits-all. A warehouse forklift operator needs flexibility, while a railway engineer needs heavy-duty protection. Here is how VizGlo engineers specific solutions for your industry.
