  Low-voltage Circuit Arc APC 2

  This garment provides the highest level of protection against the thermal hazards of an electric arc flash. It is tested to shield you from a 7kA electric arc, offering crucial protection when working with low-voltage electrical systems.

• EN 13034:2005

  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.

  Liquid Chemical Protection Type 6

  Provides protection against light sprays, liquid aerosols, and low-pressure, low-volume splashes of liquid chemicals. It is intended for use in low-risk situations where a full chemical barrier is not required, such as industrial cleaning or maintenance.

• EN 1149-5

  Protective clothing with the EN 1149-5 rating is tested for its ability to dissipate electrostatic charges, preventing sparks. This protects you by reducing the risk of explosions in hazardous environments where flammable substances or gases are present.

  Reflective Strip Area Grade 2

  This garment provides an intermediate level of visibility for use in moderate-risk environments. It is suitable for work near traffic with speeds up to 60 km/hour, featuring a specified area of fluorescent material and reflective strips.

• EN 343:2019

  Protective clothing with the EN 343:2019 rating is tested for resistance to water penetration and water vapor, meaning how well it keeps you dry from external wetness and allows sweat to escape. This ensures you stay comfortable and protected in rain, snow, fog, and humid conditions.

  Waterproofness Class 3

  Provides the highest level of protection against rain, snow, and fog for extended periods. This garment is ideal for working in heavy rain and other harsh weather conditions, keeping you dry and comfortable.

  Downpour X

  Provides certified protection against rain, fog, and ground moisture for everyday use. This garment is tested for waterproofness and breathability but has not undergone the optional, final simulated downpour test for a finished garment.

  Breathability Class 1

  This garment protects against rain and foul weather. It has the lowest level of breathability in its class, making it suitable for short-duration tasks or work with low physical activity to help keep you dry.

• EN 11611:2015

  Protective clothing with the EN 11611:2015 rating is tested for protection against molten metal splashes, limited flame spread, radiant heat from welding, and reduced electrical shock risk. This ensures professionals in welding and allied processes are protected from common hazards, helping to minimize injuries.

  Test results

  Welding Protection Class 2

  This garment offers a high level of protection for more hazardous welding jobs. It is designed for manual welding techniques with significant spatter and droplet formation, providing superior defense against molten metal splashes and radiant heat from the arc.

• EN 61482-2

  Protective clothing with the EN 61482-2 rating is tested for protection against the thermal hazards of an electric arc, such as intense heat and flames. This means the clothing helps prevent severe burns by limiting heat transfer during an arc flash incident, enhancing user safety.

• 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.

• 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.
