Critical: Hi-Vis MUST match AS/NZS 4602 for the specific class (Day / Night / Day/Night). Colour MATTERS — yellow + orange compliant; navy or black = non-compliant for hi-vis (even with reflective tape). FR garments degrade over time — replace per manufacturer guidance. Brands: Frontier, Bisley, WS Workwear. Companion: safety equipment, hi-vis vests, hi-vis vest guide.
Industrial Workwear: Hi-Vis Shirts, FR Denim, Waterproof Jackets and Safety Vests
The right workwear keeps your workers visible, protected, and compliant without sacrificing comfort on the job. AIMS Industrial offers a wide range of industrial workwear garments from WS Workwear, Boomerang, Frontier, and Mack — covering hi-vis shirts and pants, flame-resistant (FR) denim, waterproof jackets, cargo pants, and high-visibility safety vests for industrial, construction, and outdoor work environments.
The AIMS Workwear Range
Our workwear range covers the most in-demand garment categories for Australian industrial workers.
- Hi-Vis Shirts & Pants: WS Workwear hi-visibility long-sleeve and short-sleeve shirts in ANSI/AS 4602-compliant colourways (orange/yellow with reflective tape) for workers in traffic-management, road construction, mining, and site environments. Available in a full size range for men and women.
- Flame-Resistant (FR) Denim: Boomerang FR denim jeans provide arc flash and flame resistance for workers in electrical, gas, and mining environments where ignition hazards exist. Designed to look like regular denim while meeting the AS/NZS 4602 requirements for flame-resistant workwear.
- Cargo & Work Pants: WS Workwear cargo pants feature reinforced knees, multiple tool pockets, and hi-vis tape options for tradespeople requiring a practical, hardwearing work pant for daily site use.
- Waterproof Jackets: WS Workwear waterproof hi-vis jackets provide wind and water resistance for outdoor workers on exposed sites, with taped seams and reflective tape for all-weather visibility. Essential for workers in variable Australian weather conditions.
- Safety Vests: Frontier hi-vis safety vests provide a cost-effective high-visibility solution for workers, visitors, and contractors who require compliance without a full hi-vis garment. Day/night rated options with reflective tape.
- Mack T-Shirts: Mack branded workwear t-shirts provide a comfortable, branded option for workshop and indoor industrial workers who don’t require full hi-vis compliance.
Workwear Compliance in Australian Workplaces
- Hi-Vis Standards: High-visibility garments for road workers and traffic controllers must meet AS/NZS 4602:2011. Garments are rated for day-only (D), night-only (N), or day/night (D/N) use. Confirm the correct rating for your workers’ exposure to traffic and low-light conditions.
- FR Workwear: Flame-resistant clothing must meet AS/NZS 4602 and relevant arc flash standards. FR garments must be worn as the outermost layer — wearing non-FR garments over FR base layers defeats the protection.
- Complete Safety Kit: Pair workwear with compliant safety footwear and PPE including steel-cap boots, safety glasses, and harnesses for full site compliance.
- Expert Support: Need help with workwear compliance for your site or a bulk order? Contact our team or request a quote for sizing, compliance advice, and volume pricing.
- Australian Business, Local Supply: As a proudly Australian business since 1988, we stock locally and work with trusted local Australian manufacturers and distributors to ensure fast, reliable supply.

People Also Ask — Workwear
Q: What's the difference between Day, Night, and Day/Night hi-vis ratings?
Class D is daylight-only visibility, Class N is night-only, and Class D/N combines both with reflective tape for 24-hour visibility — all rated under AS/NZS 4602.1. Confirming the correct class for a worker's actual exposure to traffic and low-light conditions matters, since a daylight-only garment doesn't provide the reflective element a night shift needs.
Q: Can I wear a regular jacket over FR denim and still be protected?
No — FR (flame-resistant) garments must be worn as the outermost layer. Wearing a non-FR garment over an FR base layer defeats the protection, since the outer layer is what's exposed to the ignition hazard in the first place.
Q: Why is colour so strict for hi-vis workwear compliance?
Hi-vis colour is specifically regulated under AS/NZS 1906 — yellow and orange are compliant, but navy or black are non-compliant for hi-vis purposes even with reflective tape added. The garment has to meet the colour requirement in its own right, not just add reflective strips to an otherwise non-compliant colour.
Q: What's the difference between a Frontier safety vest and a full hi-vis garment in the AIMS range?
A Frontier hi-vis safety vest is a cost-effective option for workers, visitors and contractors who need compliance without a full hi-vis garment — available in day/night rated options with reflective tape, rather than the full shirt, pant or jacket ranges stocked for workers in permanent hi-vis roles.
Q: When would FR (flame-resistant) denim be needed instead of standard work pants?
FR denim is specified for electrical, gas and mining environments where ignition hazards exist — Boomerang's FR denim provides arc flash and flame resistance while being designed to look like regular denim, meeting AS/NZS 4602 flame-resistant requirements rather than the durability-only focus of standard cotton-blend work pants.
