• EN 13688:2013

  EN 13688:2013 is a European standard that specifies the performance requirements for protective clothing. The standard includes requirements for safety, comfort, and durability, as well as tests for determining these properties. Protective clothing includes items like coveralls, aprons, and gloves that are worn to protect the wearer from hazards. Possible test results include resistance to chemicals, heat, abrasion and tearing, as well as breathability and comfort. The clothing can be tested under different conditions to check if it meets the standard's requirements.

• EN 343:2003

  EN 343:2003 is a European standard that sets out safety requirements for personal protective equipment (PPE) to be used for protection against bad weather. The standard defines the general requirements for PPE, including design and construction, marking, instructions for use, and packaging. Performance requirements include things like waterproofness, breathability, and visibility and test results may include measurements of these properties. The standard also specifies the testing methods that should be used to test PPE, such as measuring the resistance to water penetration, breathability, and visibility of the material.

  Test results

  Waterproofness Class 1

  The EN 343:2003 standard, Waterproofness Class 1 denotes the basic level of waterproof protection deemed compliant under this specification. This result means that the garment or product can resist water penetration to a minimal degree (more than 8000 Pascal Pressure units before pre-treatment), making it suitable for light exposure to rain or damp conditions but not under heavy or pressurized water exposure. The test method to determine this waterproofness involves subjecting the fabric or material to water penetration under controlled conditions, measuring the amount of water that passes through the material over time. This typically involves using a hydrostatic head test where water is pressured against the fabric, ensuring that the product maintains minimal water resistance according to the standards. For business and procurement decisions, understanding that a product meets Class 1 waterproofness according to EN 343:2003 suggests it is suitable for environments with occasional or light contact with water, but not for prolonged or extreme conditions .

• CE Marking

  CE Marking is a label that shows a product meets certain safety and environmental standards set by the European Union. To get the CE Marking, a company must test and certify their product meets these standards. CE Marking is required for many products sold in the EU, including electronics, machinery, toys and medical devices. It helps ensure that products are safe for consumers and the environment, and allows for easy trade within the EU.
