What are the characteristics of safety vests?

These high visibility safety vests consist of the typical components that make up the entire garment. The first component is a fluorescent fabric, which contains unique pigments that are brighter than other colors and improves visibility during the day, especially in low light conditions such as darkness, cloud cover, and dawn. The three approved background color options for safety vests are fluorescent orange, red, and green. The second component is the reflective tape, which greatly reflects light in the direction of the light source like a car headlight, thereby illuminating people when there is insufficient light or at night. The third component is a combination of materials with excellent performance: retroreflective and fluorescent tape.
