Hi Visibility Material Bisley Safetywear High Visibility garments are developed to be seen in high-risk environments and protect you from work place hazards. AS/NZS 1906.4:2010	Hi Vis Day Only Class D. Day only garments are developed to be worn during the day time only and never at night. Hi Vis colours are used to ensure you're seen in high-risk environments. AS/NZS 4602.1:2011	Hi Vis Day or Night Class D/N. Day/Night garments are developed to be worn both during the day and also at night. Hi Vis colours accompanied with retroreflective taping offer maximum reflection. AS/NZS 4602.1:2011	Hi Vis Night Only Night (N) Only garments are developed to be worn during the night time only as the retroreflective taping offers visibility from vehicle headlights. AS/NZS 4602.1:2011
Sun Protection The ultraviolet radiation trasmitted through a fabric to the skin is measured and given a rating of 15 (min protection), 30 (good protection), 40, 50, 50+ (excellent protection). AS/NZS 4399:2017	Industrial Reinforced stitching, bartacks, rivets and heavy duty fabrics mean Bisley Workwear products with this symbol have been developed for industrial environments or work places.	Static Control Certain natural fibres do not attract static electricity (static neutral) and therefore reduce the risk of an electric shock to the body. 100% Cotton is the most common static control in garments. AS/NZS 1020:1995	Cool Lightweight We recognise the need for developing lightweight, breathable garments and have added mesh ventilation to key perspiration points on some garments.
X Airflow™ Bisley's X Airflow™ Technology is based on a 3D cooling system, where the air flows through multiple ventilation points on the garment at key heat stress areas.	Cold Weather Garments designed to keep you warm in cold weather.	Showerproof Resistant to light rain. Fabric is either treated with an outer coat finish or a waterproof membrane is added to the reverse side of rainwear fabrics. Generally if a garment repels liquid on the outside and is not fully seam sealed on the inside, it is also categorised as showerproof.	Water Resistant Water resistantmembranes are often added to the reverse side of rainwear fabrics to ensure that no water can penetrate from the outside, water resistant garments are fully seam sealed on the inside keeping you dry in wet weather. AS 2001.2.18-1987
Breathable Fabric is breathable or the garment is designed with ventilation	Stretch Built in stretch that allows greater ease of movement when working.	Industrial Wash Bisley premium Industrial range is designed to withstand industrial washes at 75°C. Using superior imported German dyes for greater colourfastness and super industrial strength 3M 9920 reflective tape.	Bioscience Fresche Fresche microbial treatment is a highly effective approach to long term control and protection against the growth of bacteria and fungus which causes stubborn odours and stains. Fresche is invisible when applied, it will not impact or change the colour or feel of the garment. Fresche is derived from coconut oil - a safe, sustainable and renewable resource.
Easy-Fit Whether you're an 'in-between' size or you prefer a comfortable stretch for freedom of movement, garments developed with an easy-fit can provide an ergonomic adjustment with no change to look or feel.	Moisture Control Hydrophilic garments pull perspiration away from your skin to the outer layer of the fabric where it is able to evaporate faster, leaving your skin fresh and without excessive perspiration.	Stain ReGuard DuPont, the world leader in fibre and fibre treatment technology use their ingenious stain release technology to provide garments with an easy cleaning solution.	Flame Resistant Garments made with fabrics that self-extinguish when the source of ignition is removed. The most commonly used test method is ASTM D6413
PPE 1 PERSONAL PROTECTIVE CLOTHING (PPE) - NFPA 70E GUIDELINES The categories in which ATPV ratings are classified. Each classification represents a level of protection. PPE 1: 4 cal/cm² minimum PPE 2: 8 cal/cm² minimum PPE 3: 25 cal/cm² minimum	ATPV Rating The minimum incident energy (in Calories per cubic centimetre) that protective equipment can be exposed to, to prevent the onset of a second-degree burn. NFPA 70E	TTMC-W Bisley Safetywear garments comply with NZTA (New Zealand Transport Agency) code of practice (CoPTTM) Temporary Traffic Management Control - Wet (TTMC-W). This code of practice specifies the standard of safety garments that a worker must wear while working in or close to hazardous traffic areas.	Invista™ Cordura® Some Bisley Workwear garments have Cordura® incorporated into them to enhance tear and abrasion resistance, due to the high quality, resilient nylon yarns used to create it.
3M Reflective Tape Bisley Safetywear utilises 3M retroreflective tape with patented retroreflection technology in 99% of the Hi Vis range. 8910 tape is for general domestic wash, 9920 is for industrial wash and 8935 is for flame resistant garments. AS/NZS 1906.4:2010	Tencate Tecasafe® Plus Engineered as a more comfortable and durable alternative to existing industrial FR fabrics, Tecasafe® Plus provides superior arc flash and flash fire protection. Featuring the enhanced comfort of Coolderm Technology, Tecasafe® Plus offers a proprietary fibre blend to keep you cooler when it's hot and drier when it's cool. With active moisture wicking and excellent breathability, Coolderm Technology keeps the wearer worry-free and very comfortable.	Westex Ultrasoft® UltraSoft® was created with a unique blend of 88% cotton and 12% high-tenacity nylon to provide a soft feel for greater comfort, enhanced wear life and protective performance. UltraSoft® is guaranteed flame resistant for the life of the garment in either high-temperature industrial or home washing procedures. That makes it ideal for enhanced protection from electric arc and flash fire exposures. as well as multipurpose protection from electric arc flash, flash fire, molten ferrous metal and welding exposures.
