Protective clothing, such as medical gowns and coveralls, with the EN 14126:1999/AC:2002 rating are tested for resistance to penetration by infective agents, including microorganisms, viruses, blood, and body fluids. This ensures the clothing provides a reliable barrier against biological hazards, offering peace of mind for the wearer.

Protective clothing with the EN 369:1993/AC:1993 rating is tested for its resistance to liquid chemical permeation. This ensures the material creates a barrier, helping to prevent hazardous liquids from soaking through and reaching your skin.

Chemical protective clothing and partial body garments with the EN 14605:2005 rating are tested for their resistance to liquid chemicals, ensuring liquid-tight (Type 3) or spray-tight (Type 4) connections. This means you can choose clothing that offers certified protection against specific chemical splashes or sprays, giving you confidence in hazardous environments.

Protective clothing with the EN 1073-2:2002 rating are tested for protection against particulate radioactive contamination. This ensures the clothing effectively minimizes the inward leakage of hazardous radioactive particles to keep you safe.

Protective clothing with the EN 1149-1:1995 rating is tested for its ability to dissipate static electricity from its surface. This means the clothing helps prevent hazardous sparks, improving safety in environments where flammable materials are present.

Protective clothing, such as coveralls and aprons, with the EN 13034:2005 rating are tested for limited protection against light spray, liquid aerosols, or low-volume splashes of liquid chemicals. This means the clothing provides a barrier against minor chemical exposure, allowing you time to safely remove it before chemicals penetrate.

Test results

Chemical protective clothing, like coveralls and suits, with the EN ISO 13982-1:2004 rating are tested for resistance against penetration by airborne solid particles and for robust seam integrity. This ensures the clothing provides reliable full-body protection from hazardous dusts and fine dry chemicals.

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.
