Standards and labels
EN 343 is a European standard for protective clothing against bad weather. It says clothes must be waterproof, breathable, and not let water in. It's used to protect workers in different industries like construction and transportation. Tests must show the clothing meets these standards.
Test results
Waterproofness Class 3EN 343:2019 is designed to ensure that protective clothing provides specific levels of protection against rain, considering its waterproof capabilities. Class 3 in this standard represents the highest level of waterproofness, indicating that the garment successfully resists a high volume of water penetration (more than 13000 Pascal Pressure units after pre-treatment). The test method used involves simulating wet weather conditions, where the fabric is exposed to varying degrees of water projections and pressures to evaluate its resistance. Fabrics that achieve Class 3 certification tend to have undergone rigorous testing such as high-pressure spray tests or being subject to a controlled volume of water for a defined period. These are particularly relevant for professional use in extremely wet environments where the highest level of water resistance is necessary, providing critical protection in conditions from heavy rain to immersion scenarios. This high classification impacts the practical usability of such clothing in industries such as outdoor work, marine activities, or emergency services where maximum protection from water exposure is critical for safety and performance.
Breathability Class 2In the EN 343:2019 standard, a breathability rating of Class 2 indicates moderate (20<RET<40) breathability suitable for protective clothing intended for use in adverse weather conditions. This class signifies that the fabric used in the garment allows a certain amount of water vapor to pass through, thereby reducing condensation and enhancing wearer comfort. The testing method employs specific conditions under which the material is tested for water vapor transmission.
Downpour XEN 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.
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.
