    • Class D: a garment designed for outdoor daytime use only, comprising fluorescent
    or other non-retroreflective high visibility material.
    • Class N: a garment designed for night-time use only, comprising retroreflective
    elements on an unspecified background.
    • Class D/N: a garment designed for both and night use, comprising retroreflective
    elements on a fluorescent or other non-retroreflective high visibility background
    material.

    Class D Garments
    These garments are intended to provide the wearer with high visibility under daylight
    viewing conditions in outdoor situations.
    • Fluorescent materials shall be made from materials that meet the requirements of
    Class F in AS/NZS 1906.4-1997. Colours are normally red-orange or lime yellow.
    • Non-fluorescent materials. Where safety requirements require a garment to be
    made from a material which is not capable of taking a fluorescent pigment e.g.
    certain natural fibres, a non-fluorescent colour as specified in AS/NZS 1906.4:1997
    may be used in lieu.
    • Garment design – Class D garments shall comprise a garment or combination of
    garments of any desired type or style which as a minimum encircles the upper

    Class N Garments
    These garments are intended to provide the wearer with high visibility at night when
    viewed under retroreflected light, such as by drivers of vehicles using headlight
    illumination. The colour of the background is not specified.
    • Retroreflective materials used on Class N garments shall meet the requirements for
    Class R material specified in AS/NZS 1906.4:1997. Material strips must not be less
    than 50mm wide to at least the minimum patterns specified. See diagrams below.
    Retroreflective patches, words, symbols and the like shall be regarded as additional
    to, and not replacing, the specified patterns of retroreflective strips.
    • Garment design – Class N garments shall comprise a garment or combination of
    garments of any desired type or style which as a minimum encircles the upper torso
    down to the waist level. Strips of retroreflective material shall be applied as
    specified below.
