BS +AU 145E:2018

BS AU 145E:2018 specifies requirements for retroreflecting number plates for vehicles, including requirements for:

• a) colorimetric and photometric properties;
• b) adequate contrast between background and characters in NIR wavelengths to demonstrate compatibility with automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) systems; and
• c) resistance to bending, impact, abrasion, corrosion, solvents, weathering and extremes of temperature.

The British Standard does not specify requirements for number plates fitting, which is prescribed by statutory regulations.
