Glozone reflective road safety and lifestyle accessories

Safety Standard CE EN 13356 compliance :

There are safety standard ce en 13356 compliant reflective accessories and then there are non-compliant reflective accessories - both for personal road safety use.

The former is manufactured to strict specifications compliant with governing standards, and the other is not.

The non-compliant variety are cheap replicas ideal for "cheap-scates". They look passable, and for those who neither comprehend the workings of promotional activity, nor care for a responsible approach to life saving personal road safety reflective wear, they are quite the bargain.

The latter often dismiss this by claiming they are not going to use them for road safety, they are just for a promotional gimmick. After the event, what will the recipients make of these cheap gimmicks that look like reflective wear for personal road safety? We shudder to think, and we do not condone any involvement in these cheap replicas.

Responsible organisations and campaigners would simply not associate their name and reputation with anything less than the quality end, and nor would we.

Some manufacturers and resellers refer to the standard in their publications, but display wrong certification when very slow images finally load or links that are broken - We wonder why!

Some refer to the standard but do not display certification. For the considerable cost of attaining certification, do you think those who have taken the trouble and paid for such certification would omit to show their potential customers that they have done so? We think not.

Others claim to make reflectors according to CE EN 13356, but without any attempt to offer proof of any kind. We wonder why.

It comes as no surprise that non-compliant reflectors cost a fraction of the real thing, but fun as they are, they're of little use for personal road safety.

Let's keep them safe this winter!
Sorry to shatter your illusions!

But this is important. So if on the other hand you want your gift recipients to enjoy road safety, compliments of your organisation, then insist on the real thing.

No certification = No road safety! Simple. Insist on seeing CE EN 13356 certification! Here is ours!

We were the first in all of europe to attain certification for our reflective accessories. We lead, we don't copy. We specialise in relective promotional gifts and remain at the forefront of this industry with product innovation and good service. We've built our reputation on it!

The safety standards and what they mean:

CE on its own without reference to which category of safety standard, means nothing. A CE mark should always be linked with the number of the Standard it relates to.

EN on its own doesn't actually mean anything.

EN 71 is a Standard for toys and has no bearing on reflectivity or road safety at all.

EN 1150 is a Standard for reflective vests for personal use. (See below)

CE EN 13356 is a Standard for loose, reflective accessories for personal use. (See below)

EN 471 refers to larger areas of reflectivity (vests, jackets) with added resistance to chemical spills, fire, heat and, through classification I, II, and III respectively, EN 471 also refers to different numbers of washes the garment can endure without impairing the reflective qualities. This Standard is for professional use, and we offer a roadside breakdown vest that complies with this Standard. (The same Standard as for reflective garments worn by the police, ambulance personnel, Fire and rescue personnel, motorway maintenance personnel etc.)
