Standards and labels

• EN ISO 13982-1:2004

  EN ISO 13982-1:2004 is a European standard that specifies the requirements and test methods for Type 5 protective clothing designed to protect against airborne solid particles. It sets criteria for material resistance and construction to prevent penetration of hazardous particles such as dust, fibers, and powders. The standard ensures that the garments provide effective protection in industries where workers may be exposed to such particles, but it should not be relied upon for protection against liquid chemicals or vapors.

• EN 13034:2005+A1:2009

  EN 13034:2005 is a European standard that outlines the requirements and test methods for Type 6 protective clothing designed to provide protection against liquid chemical hazards. It specifies criteria for the fabric's resistance to penetration by liquid chemicals and establishes guidelines for the overall design and construction of the garments. The amendment A1:2009 introduces updates and refinements to enhance the performance and reliability of Type 6 protective clothing, ensuring improved protection for workers exposed to liquid chemical splashes and sprays. These standards are essential in industries where workers are at risk of encountering liquid chemical hazards, ensuring their safety and well-being.

  Liquid Chemical Protection Type 6 PB

  EN 13034:2005+A1:2009 specifies the performance requirements for protective clothing that offers limited protection against liquid chemicals, identified specifically as Type 6 PB (partial body protection). The 'Type 6 PB' designation implies that the protective garment has been tested and confirmed to provide effective defense against light spray and minor splashes of liquid chemicals, but only for parts of the body such as aprons, sleeves, or boots rather than full body suits. This standard tests the fabric's barrier effectiveness by applying a defined volume of liquid to the garment and assessing any penetration or repellence under controlled laboratory conditions. Garments achieving Type 6 PB classification are crucial for tasks in industries like chemical processing or handling where full body coverage is unnecessary, thereby offering flexibility and targeted protection, reducing the risk of chemical exposure to critical areas of the body.

• EN 1149-1:1995

  EN 1149-1:1995 is a European standard that defines the performance requirements for protective clothing with electrostatic properties. The standard specifies that the clothing must have a surface resistance of at least 1x10^5 ohms and a charge decay rate of less than 2 seconds. Test results can include the measurement of surface resistance and charge decay rate.

  Surface Resistance Tested

  The EN 1149-1:1995 standard is concerned primarily with determining the surface resistance of materials used to protect against the build-up of static electricity, which could result in sparking and potential fire hazards. A test result indicating Surface Resistance Tested affirms that the fabric or surface has been evaluated for its ability to dissipate electrical charges, suggesting a level of resistance quality that makes it suitable for environments where static control is crucial. The testing method involves applying a voltage to two electrodes placed on the material surface and measuring the resistance to the flow of current. High resistance indicates that the material holds charges, while low resistance indicates good charge dissipation capabilities. This characteristic is significant in industries like electronics or petrochemicals, where preventing electrostatic discharges is vital to safety and operational reliability.

• EN 14126:2003/AC:2004

  EN 14126:2003, along with the amendment AC:2004, is a European standard that specifically addresses protective clothing designed to provide protection against infectious agents, including viruses and bacteria. The standard outlines the requirements and test methods for evaluating the material's resistance to penetration by microorganisms. The amendment AC:2004 introduces updates and refinements to enhance the performance and reliability of the protective clothing, ensuring improved protection for individuals exposed to biological hazards. Compliance with EN 14126:2003 and its amendment ensures that the protective clothing meets the necessary standards for barrier protection against infectious agents.

• EN 1073-2:2002

  EN 1073-2:2002 is a European standard that defines the requirements for measuring and evaluating the resistance of textiles to penetration of airborne radioactive particles. The standard includes procedures for measuring the ability of textile materials to prevent the penetration of radioactive particles through the fabric. The performance requirements specify the conditions for testing, as well as the evaluation criteria for determining resistance. Possible test results include a rating on a scale of 1-5, with 5 indicating the highest level of resistance to particle penetration.

• 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.
