Chemical protective clothing, such as coveralls and suits, with the EN ISO 13982-1:2004/A1:2010 rating are tested for resistance to penetration by airborne solid particles and inward leakage. This ensures the clothing provides full-body protection against hazardous dusts and dry particulates, keeping you safe in environments where such particles are present.

Test results

Protective clothing with the EN 13034:2005+A1:2009 rating is tested for limited protection against liquid chemicals, such as light spray or splashes. This ensures the garment resists chemical penetration and repellency, allowing you to work safely with low-risk chemical exposure and remove it quickly if contaminated.

Test results

Protective clothing and gloves with the EN 1149-2:1997 rating are tested for the electrical vertical resistance of their material. This ensures the fabric can safely dissipate static electricity through its thickness, reducing the risk of sparks in flammable environments or damage to sensitive electronic components.

Test results

Protective clothing with the EN 1073-2 rating is tested for protection against particulate radioactive contamination, including the material's resistance to particle penetration and inward leakage. This ensures the clothing forms a reliable barrier, helping to prevent radioactive particles from contacting your skin or clothes.

PPE stands for "personal protective equipment." PPE Category 3 refers to equipment that is complex and provide the highest level of protection such as powered respirators, SCBA, and full body suits. In Europe, PPE Category 3 must meet certain safety standards set by the European Union, which means that it must be designed and manufactured to protect the user without causing harm. Companies that make or sell PPE must prove that it meets these standards. They also must have a quality management system in place, have to be audited regularly by a notified body and have to have a technical documentation.
