  Breathability Class 4

  EN 343:2019 is a standard that specifies requirements and test methods for protective clothing, including garments designed to provide protection against precipitation and wet conditions, with the aim of ensuring both waterproofness and breathability. Class 4 in Breathability meabs the highest level of breathability, indicating that the garment allows significant moisture vapor transmission while maintaining its waterproofness. This classification suggests that the garment provides excellent comfort for the wearer by allowing sweat and moisture to escape, thereby reducing the risk of overheating and discomfort during prolonged wear. The test method involves placing a fabric sample over a permeable plate in a controlled environment, applying a specific water pressure to simulate rain, and measuring the fabric's resistance to water penetration and its ability to transmit water vapor. Garments achieving Class 4 in Breathability offer practical advantages, as they are suitable for use in demanding outdoor activities and occupations where both waterproofness and breathability are essential, such as outdoor work in variable weather conditions.

  Downpour X

  EN 343:2019 is a standard that delineates requirements and assessment methodologies for protective clothing, specifically tailored to garments intended to offer protection against precipitation and wet conditions.Result X signifies that the garment's performance in resisting water penetration during simulated downpours has not been specified or assessed. The practical implications of this result are notable, as it indicates that the garment may not offer adequate protection against heavy rain and prolonged exposure to wet conditions, potentially compromising wearer comfort and safety, particularly in outdoor work environments where protection from inclement weather is paramount.

  Waterproofness Class 4

  EN 343:2019 is a standard that sets forth requirements and test methods for protective clothing, specifically focusing on garments intended to offer protection against precipitation and wet conditions, ensuring waterproofness and breathability. Class 4 signifies the highest level of waterproof performance, indicating that the garment effectively prevents water penetration under high hydrostatic pressure. This classification suggests that the garment offers superior protection against heavy rain and wet conditions, keeping the wearer dry and comfortable. The test method involves subjecting fabric samples to a specified water pressure for a predetermined duration and assessing any water penetration. Garments achieving Class 4 in Waterproofness are highly suitable for use in environments where protection against heavy rain and prolonged exposure to moisture is essential, such as outdoor work and activities in inclement weather conditions, ensuring user safety and comfort.

• EN 14058:2017

  EN 14058:2017 is a European standard that defines the requirements for the design, testing and performance of portable fire extinguishers. It sets requirements for the extinguisher's ability to extinguish fires, its durability, ease of use and safety, and the accuracy of its labeling and instructions. Test results may include measures such as the extinguisher's fire-extinguishing capability, its ability to withstand impact and vibration, and its pressure-retention and leakage performance. This standard is still in use and it's important to check the product label and documentation to see if the extinguisher meet the requirements of this standard.

• Oeko-Tex Standard 100

  Oeko-Tex Standard 100 is a product certification program for textiles, which is awarded by the Oeko-Tex Association. This program verifies that the textile products are free from harmful chemicals. To be able to use the Oeko-Tex Standard 100 label, a product must meet certain requirements set by the Oeko-Tex Association which include limits on the levels of harmful substances such as pesticides, heavy metals, and formaldehyde. The textile products are inspected and certified by Oeko-Tex, they can use the Oeko-Tex Standard 100 label on their packaging to show that they are free from harmful chemicals. This certification is for all types of textiles, from raw materials to finished products, and it is globally recognized.
