What AS/NZS standard applies to hi-vis clothing in NZ?

Hi-vis workwear must meet AS/NZS 4602.1. Class D is for daytime use; Class N for night; Class D/N for both. Traffic management workers typically require Class D/N garments with retroreflective tape.

What is the difference between Class D and Class D/N hi-vis?

Class D garments use fluorescent fabric for daytime visibility. Class D/N adds retroreflective tape for night-time visibility under headlights. Most NZ roading and traffic management roles require Class D/N.

Can hi-vis clothing be machine washed?

Yes. Use mild detergent, avoid bleach and fabric softener (which degrade fluorescent fabric and reflective tape), and wash on a gentle cycle. Air dry or tumble dry low.

Does KiwiWorkGear ship hi-vis clothing NZ-wide?

Yes — we ship from our Masterton base across all of New Zealand. Most orders arrive within 2–5 working days. Free shipping on orders over $250.
