Total solution for Chromaticity of Neon Colors, Hunter Orange and Retro-reflective Materials
High-visibility Textiles are fabrics with a color that is easily discernible in any environment or has highly reflective properties. High-visibility clothing can serve as a distinctive sign to indicate the presence of the wearer, and are widely used for the purposes of public safety, emergency services, personal safety applications, and other professional uses. Intertek provides a total solution for various visibility-related tests to assure your product quality and safety.
High-visibility colors refer to fluorescent colors or neon colors that can be easily detected, even in low-light conditions. By measuring the chromaticity coordinates, brightness and color difference, the test verifies whether the claimed color complies with the fluorescent color requirements.
