  Molten Metal Resistance Level 4

  Offers the highest level of protection (Level 4) against large splashes of molten metal, like iron. Built for demanding industrial jobs such as foundry work, providing essential safety when exposed to significant molten material splashes.

  Heat Convection Level 2

  Provides moderate protection by delaying heat transfer from an open flame. Ideal for tasks where hands are near, but not touching, a flame, giving you more time to move away safely from the heat source.

  Burning Behaviour Level 4

  Provides the highest level of protection against catching fire when exposed to a naked flame. After the flame is removed, the material will stop burning within 2 seconds and stop glowing within 5 seconds.

  Radiant Heat Level 1

  Provides Level 1 protection against radiant heat, delaying the transfer of heat from a nearby source for a short time. Ideal for tasks where hands are exposed to heat from a distance, not for direct contact with hot items.

  Heat Contact Level 1

  Provides protection when briefly touching hot objects. Certified for contact with surfaces up to 100°C for at least 15 seconds, offering short-term protection against burns from items like hot cookware or machinery parts.

  Molten Metal Resistance Level X

  This product has not been tested for resistance against splashes of molten metal. It provides no claimed protection and should not be used for welding, foundry work, or other tasks with molten metal risks.

• EN 14204:2012

  Chemical disinfectants and antiseptics for veterinary use with the EN 14204:2012 rating are tested for their ability to effectively kill mycobacteria, a group of resilient bacteria. This ensures the products are highly effective against tough-to-kill germs, helping to maintain a healthier and safer environment for animals.

• 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.
