Complaint against advert for Equisafety Polite range


  • The Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) has upheld a complaint against an advert by Equisafety that said its Polite range of high-visibility riding wear had been “police consulted”.

    Equisafety told the ASA that the words “police consulted” were not meant to imply that the police had approved the product for use.

    However, the company agreed to take the wording off
    future adverts
    .

    “We have been reported to the ASA by just one person but have changed the advert,” said Nicky Fletcher of Equisafety.
