Standards and labels

• EN 374-5:2016

  EN 374-5:2016 is a European standard for gloves that protect against microorganisms, specifically gloves that are used for medical and dental procedures. It sets rules for how the gloves should protect against microorganisms and how to test if they meet the standards. Gloves that pass the tests can have a label that says they meet the standard. The test results can be pass or fail for each test that checks the gloves resistance to microorganisms.

  Micro-organisms Virus

• EN ISO 374-1:2016

  EN ISO 374-1:2016 is a standard that defines the performance requirements for gloves that protect against chemicals and microorganisms. The standard specifies the design, materials, and testing requirements for gloves to protect against chemicals and microorganisms. Possible test results include measurements of the gloves' permeation resistance, degradation, and penetration. It also includes the safety and functionality requirements for gloves.

  Specified Requirements Type B

• EN ISO 374-2:2019

  EN ISO 374-2:2019 is a standard that tells how gloves should be made to protect hands from dangerous chemicals and microorganisms. It sets rules for design, materials, and testing of gloves. Possible test results include how well the gloves keep out chemicals, how long they last and how well they protect the hands. This standard specify the test methods and the performance requirements for gloves protecting against specific microorganisms and chemicals.

• EN ISO 374-4:2019

  EN ISO 374-4:2019 is a standard that sets the rules for gloves that protect against dangerous chemicals and microorganisms. It tells how gloves should be made, what materials should be used, and how they should be tested. Possible test results include how well the gloves keep out chemicals, how long they last and how well they protect the hands. This standard focus on the use of gloves against specific microorganisms and chemicals, and specifies the performance requirements and test methods for gloves protecting against viral penetration.

• EN 1186-9:2002

  EN 1186 is a European standard that specifies requirements and test methods for the safety of materials and articles that come into contact with food. The standard provides a framework for evaluating the safety of food contact materials by establishing guidelines for testing their chemical compatibility with food and determining the potential for migration of harmful substances into food. EN 1186 is divided into several parts, each of which addresses a different aspect of food contact materials. EN 1186-9: Test Methods for Overall Migration at Room Temperature - This part specifies test methods for determining the overall migration of substances from food contact materials into food at room temperature.

• 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.

• Food Safe

  Food safe refers to the safety of food products that are used or consumed by people. In Europe, food safety is regulated by the European Union (EU) and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). These organizations set standards and requirements for food products to ensure they are safe to eat. To be considered "food safe" in Europe, a product must meet these standards and be free of harmful substances. This includes being free of harmful bacteria, pesticides, and other contaminants. Food products that do not meet these standards cannot be sold or used in the EU.

• PPE Category 3

  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.
