Standards and labels

• EN ISO 20471:2013

  EN ISO 20471:2013 is a standard for high visibility clothing worn in certain work environments. It sets guidelines for clothing to make sure people can see the person wearing it well in low light conditions. Test results are used to make sure the clothing meets these rules. The tests include checking the amount of reflective material on the clothing and how well it can be seen from different angles.

• EN 343:2019

  EN 343 is a European standard for protective clothing against bad weather. It says clothes must be waterproof, breathable, and not let water in. It's used to protect workers in different industries like construction and transportation. Tests must show the clothing meets these standards.

  Waterproofness Class 4

  EN 343:2019 is a standard that sets forth requirements and test methods for protective clothing, specifically focusing on garments intended to offer protection against precipitation and wet conditions, ensuring waterproofness and breathability. Class 4 signifies the highest level of waterproof performance, indicating that the garment effectively prevents water penetration under high hydrostatic pressure. This classification suggests that the garment offers superior protection against heavy rain and wet conditions, keeping the wearer dry and comfortable. The test method involves subjecting fabric samples to a specified water pressure for a predetermined duration and assessing any water penetration. Garments achieving Class 4 in Waterproofness are highly suitable for use in environments where protection against heavy rain and prolonged exposure to moisture is essential, such as outdoor work and activities in inclement weather conditions, ensuring user safety and comfort.

  Breathability Class 3

  Breathability performance in the category of Class 3 under the standard EN 343:2019 reflects a high level (RET<20) of breathability for protective clothing. This category is designed to provide comfort and prolonged wearability in environments requiring good air permeability through the garment. Specifically, Class 3 is the highest class, indicating excellent breathability properties which are tested and certified to meet stringent regulations for vapor permeability and resistance. The practical implication of a Class 3 breathability result in EN 343:2019 is that the fabric offers superior breathability, making it suitable for use in garments worn in active work or in environments where higher air permeability is necessary to reduce the risk of heat stress and to maintain comfort during extended wear.

  Downpour X

  EN 343:2019 is a standard that delineates requirements and assessment methodologies for protective clothing, specifically tailored to garments intended to offer protection against precipitation and wet conditions.Result X signifies that the garment's performance in resisting water penetration during simulated downpours has not been specified or assessed. The practical implications of this result are notable, as it indicates that the garment may not offer adequate protection against heavy rain and prolonged exposure to wet conditions, potentially compromising wearer comfort and safety, particularly in outdoor work environments where protection from inclement weather is paramount.

• 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.
