• EN 397:2012+A1:2012

  EN 397:2012+A1:2012 is a European standard that defines the requirements and test methods for safety helmets for use in industry. The standard specifies the requirements for the helmet's impact resistance, penetration resistance, and electrical insulation properties, as well as the helmet's ability to fit securely on the head and stay in place during use. Test results for EN 397:2012+A1:2012 include measurements of the helmet's ability to protect against impact, penetration, and electrical hazards and the stability and fit of the helmet on the head. The standard is intended to ensure that safety helmets used in industry provide adequate protection for the user. This version is an amendment to the original standard, adding new test methods and improved safety requirements for the helmets.

• PPE Category 2

  PPE stands for "personal protective equipment." PPE Category 2 refers to equipment that is more complex, and has a higher level of risk. Examples of PPE Category 2 include safety helmets, ear protection, and fall arrest equipment. In Europe, PPE Category 2 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 and have to be audited regularly by a notified body.

• 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.
