Energy absorbers and lanyards for fall arrest systems with the EN 355:2002 rating are tested for their ability to limit impact forces during a fall. This ensures the product effectively reduces the risk of severe injury by absorbing the shock, providing enhanced safety for those working at height.

Fall arresters with the EN 353-2:2002 rating are tested for their ability to reliably stop a fall, including strength, dynamic performance after drops, and resistance to environmental conditions like extreme temperatures and corrosion. This means you can trust the device to properly arrest a fall and keep you safe while working at height, even in challenging environments.

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.
