According to statistics from the Road Safety Information Platform of the Ministry of Transport, in the past five years (106-110), more than 40,000 children were killed or injured in traffic accidents, of which more than 12,000 occurred in the early morning or at dusk when the visibility was low. Therefore, in the traffic environment, How to clearly let children "see" and "be seen" is more important. The National Children's Hospital in Washington's "7 Tips for Teaching Children How to Walk Safely" also mentions that if children walk in the dark, ask them to be extra vigilant, make sure they can be seen by drivers, and let them wear light colors Or bright clothes and reflective equipment, Zhuo sees that it is the basic concept of safety for passersby, so this time Jingjuan Foundation cooperated with the Textile Industry Research Institute of the Foundation for the first time to produce 5,000 MIT fluorescent warning vests for children. "Bright Color" vest to improve children's visibility in the traffic environment and reduce the accident rate.

Borrowing from foreign experience, children's fluorescent warning vests are mostly used when walking through school in the early morning or at dusk, when going out in groups, when conducting traffic safety studies, etc. Even the concept of being actively seen is also implemented in families. Many parents take their children with them. It will also be worn when going out to ride a bicycle. Therefore, by letting the child wear a bright fluorescent vest, it will not only make it easier for the caregiver or teacher to identify the child's location and direction, but also increase the awareness of the child from drivers and passers-by. The recognition and visibility of the children are synchronously led by the caregivers to gradually lead the children to experience walking on the real road, so as to cultivate their ability to walk independently in the future.

Qiu Qiuhui, director of the Technology Office of the Ministry of Economic Affairs, said that the Technology Office not only provides R&D resources to textile institutes to develop innovative and forward-looking textile technologies to help improve domestic industrial technology and competitiveness, but also adheres to the principle of “take from society and use it in society” for technological research and development. ”, extending technology to social welfare and enhancing social well-being. We look forward to developing people-oriented technologies and products through caring for the society, so as to create a higher quality and better life for people. This time, the "High Fastness Dope Dyeing Fluorescent Fiber" developed by the Technology Project Project Institute of the Textile Institute is used in the children's fluorescent warning vest, and combined with Taiwan Chemical, Xiangding Xingye, Dongzhou Chemical, Taiwan Microparticles, Lelin Enterprises and other textile upstream and midstream The industry and Gaomeifen designers have produced high-quality fluorescent warning vests for children. We hope that they can be widely used in kindergartens in Taiwan in the future to improve the safety of children walking on the road. We also hope that this technology can be gradually extended to various industries in the future. among. Through this donation of children's fluorescent vests, we will join hands with Jingjuan to protect the future of Taiwan.

The vest donated this time is specially designed according to the child's body shape, mobility and safety. The high-fastness dope dyed fluorescent fiber used has fluorescent color at the front end of the fiber, so it does not need to be dyed. It can greatly reduce the discharge of carbon dioxide and waste water, and reduce the pollution to the environment. The fabric developed using this fiber has the characteristics of sunlight resistance, washing resistance, sweat resistance, and color fastness up to 4.5 (up to 5), so it is not easy to fade, and meets the international standard ISO EN 20471 warning fluorescent specification, Therefore, children wearing this fluorescent warning vest can make parents and teachers feel at ease and at ease! In order to enhance the warning of the vest, Taiwan's local-made reflective strips are added to illuminate children and protect their safety in traffic.
