Standards and labels
EN 388:2016 is a European standard for measuring the performance of protective gloves against mechanical risks (abrasion, cut, tear, and puncture). The standard includes test methods and performance requirements for gloves to be considered compliant. Test results are reported using a series of four numbers, each representing the performance level achieved in one of the tests.
Test results
Cut Resistance, Coup Test Level 1The EN 388:2016 standard is dedicated to gauging the mechanical risks for hand protection where a Cut Resistance, Coup Test Level 1 indicates minimal resistance to cutting because material achieved between 1.2 and 2.5 cycles before being cut through during the test. It means that the product tested at this level offers basic protection against shallow cuts, suitable for tasks with low risk of cut injuries. The test method used involves a rotating circular blade under a fixed force making contact with the fabric or material being tested. The blade moves back and forth across the material until a cut-through is achieved. The number of cycles required to cut through the sample at a consistent speed determines the cut resistance, with Level 1 being the second lowest rating after level 0. Products at this level are applicable in scenarios where there are minimal hazards from sharp objects, hence ideal for light duties where there is no significant risk of deep cuts.
Abrasion Resistance Level 4EN 388:2016 uses a specific test method to measure abrasion resistance of safety gloves; the gloves’ material is subjected to sandpaper under pressure to observe the number of cycles needed to wear through the material. Level 4 in this standard indicates that the material withstood 8,000 cycles before a hole was made. Practically, this means that gloves rated at Level 4 for abrasion resistance offer very high resilience against wearing through, making them suitable for tasks involving significant contact with rough surfaces .
Tear Resistance Level 1EN 388:2016 is a European standard that outlines the testing requirements for gloves to determine their level of protection against mechanical hazards, including tear resistance. The Tear Resistance Level 1 classification signifies that the gloves offer basic protection against tearing. The test method involves applying a force to a sample of the glove material to tear it, and the force measured reflects the glove's ability to resist tearing. Level 1 tear resistance means the gloves can withstand a force of between 10 to 25 Newtons before tearing. This basic level of protection is suitable for tasks where there is a minimal risk of tearing due to light manual handling or where gloves are used to prevent scratches or minor abrasions. Gloves with Level 1 tear resistance are appropriate for general activities that do not involve handling sharp or jagged materials.
Puncture Resistance Level 0EN 388:2016 specifies safety glove standards, including puncture resistance. The test result Level 0 in puncture resistance indicates that the product does not meet the minimal requirements set by the standard for protecting against punctures. The test method used involves using a standardized stylus with a specified force applied to the glove material. This is measured by the amount of force needed before the stylus punctures through the glove material. A Level 0 result signifies that the glove failed to provide any standardized level of protection during the testing procedure, which means it is not suitable for environments where puncture resistance is required for safety purposes .
Cut Resistance, ISO 13997 Level XThe standard EN 388:2016, specifically its segment referring to ISO 13997 test, is designed to assess the cut resistance of materials used in protective gloves. A result denoted as 'Level X' means that test is not performed and the cut resistance of the product cannot be guaranteed.
EN 61340-5-1:2016 is a European standard that defines the requirements and test methods for measuring the performance of ESD (electrostatic discharge) protective clothing. This standard covers the performance of clothing, including material, design and construction, that is intended to protect the human body against electrostatic discharges, which are a type of electrical shock caused by the build-up of static electricity on the body or clothing. The standard also includes test methods to evaluate the clothing's performance, including tests for electric strength, charge decay, and resistance to penetration of electrostatic charges. Test results must show that the clothing meets or exceeds the required performance levels and other requirements specified in the standard.
Test results
Electrostatic Discharge AntistaticThe standard EN 61340-5-1:2016 specifies requirements and test methods for materials and products that control electrostatic discharge to prevent damage or malfunction of electronic/components in sensitive environments. When a product is labeled as Antistatic under this standard, it signifies that the material or protective equipment has properties that prevent the build-up of static electricity by allowing it to dissipate. This result generally implies a surface resistance in a specific range or contains materials that dissipate electrostatic charges. Testing for antistatic properties typically includes measuring the resistance of the material or product by applying a voltage across it and determining its resistance using tools such as an electrostatic voltmeter or a surface resistance meter. This test is essential in environments such as electronic assembly or explosive atmospheres, where static discharge can be harmful. Properly marked materials under EN 61340-5-1:2016 ensure that the products are safe for use in settings where electrostatic discharge could pose a risk, thereby safeguarding sensitive equipment or environments from electrostatic damage.
EN ISO 21420:2020 is a European standard that sets out the general requirements for hand protection, including comfort, fit, and dexterity.
EN 16350:2014 is a European standard that defines the performance requirements for windows and doors in buildings. It covers testing procedures for measuring the safety and security aspects of these products. Test results should show compliance with the standard's requirements, including the resistance to forced entry, load resistance and the ability to open and close easily.
Test results
Electrostatic Properties TestedEN 16350:2014 specifies the test methods and requirements for the electrostatic properties of protective clothing used to avoid incendiary discharges, particularly in environments where there is a risk of explosion. The 'Tested' designation indicates that the material has undergone evaluation to ensure it dissipates electrostatic charges effectively under specific conditions. The standard testing method involves measuring the electrical resistance of the fabric under controlled humidity and temperature conditions to ensure that the material can safely conduct electrical charges away from the body. Protective clothing meeting this standard is essential in industries like petrochemicals, electronics manufacturing, and pharmaceuticals, where static electricity can pose a significant risk of sparking explosions or fires. This certification assures that the clothing provides a necessary level of protection against electrostatic discharge, contributing to the safety and prevention of accidents in hazardous work environments.
EN 407:2020 is a European standard that specifies the safety requirements for protective gloves for thermal risks. It sets rules for the design, construction, and testing of gloves that protect users from heat and fire. Testing includes measurements of contact heat, convective heat, radiant heat, small splashes of molten metal, and flame resistance. The standard also includes requirements for labeling and instructions for use. This standard is an updated version of EN 407:2004, it includes new requirements, testing methods and performance levels to ensure that the gloves provide better protection against thermal risks such as heat, fire and molten metal splash.
Test results
Molten Metal Resistance Level XEN 407:2020 is a European standard that provides specifications for protective gloves to safeguard against thermal risks, including the exposure to molten metals. The designation Molten Metal Resistance Level X indicates that the gloves have not been tested for this specific risk, or they failed to meet the minimum requirements set out in the standard for protection against molten metal splashes. This means that the gloves are either unsuitable for use in environments where there is a risk of contact with molten metals, or additional testing is required to determine their suitability. Typically, such a classification implies that the gloves should not be used for handling molten metals and should only be considered for other types of thermal risks specified in the standard, where molten metal exposure is not a concern. This classification helps in ensuring that users select the right type of glove based on the specific hazards present in their working environment, thereby preventing inappropriate use and enhancing safety.
Heat Contact Level 1EN 407:2020 sets the standard for evaluating the performance of protective gloves against thermal risks. A result of Level 1 for Heat Contact indicates minimal protection, where the glove material can delay the transfer of heat from a surface at 100°C for at least 15 seconds. This test result is established through method EN ISO 12127-1, where a glove sample is exposed to a hot surface at a specified temperature and the time is measured until the glove's interior temperature rises by a certain degree. For procurement professionals, a Level 1 rating suggests suitability for environments with low heat risks, providing brief contact protection that can be crucial for tasks involving occasional, quick contact with warm objects without continuous exposure to high heat.
Radiant Heat Level XEN 407:2020 is a European standard that sets the requirements for protective gloves to defend against various thermal hazards, including radiant heat. The designation Radiant Heat Level X indicates that the gloves have not been tested for this specific type of protection, or they did not meet the minimum criteria established by the standard for resisting radiant heat. This means that these gloves are not certified for protection against radiant heat, which involves the transmission of heat through infrared rays from a heat source without direct contact. The lack of a specific radiant heat protection level suggests that users should not rely on these gloves for tasks where significant exposure to radiant heat is expected. Instead, these gloves might be suitable for other types of thermal risks for which they are certified, ensuring users select the appropriate type of protective glove based on the specific hazards present in their working environment. This classification assists in preventing inappropriate glove use and enhancing worker safety by clearly indicating the limitations of the glove's protective capabilities.
Heat Convection Level XIn the context of EU standard EN 407:2020, a test result signifying Heat Convection Level X indicates that the protective glove tested either did not meet the minimum requirements or was not tested under this criterion. It's vital to interpret such a label as the absence of certified protection against convection heat, which may involve exposure to energetically transferred heat via fluids or gases. The test method used to determine the Heat Convection Level involves measuring the time it takes for heat to transfer from a heated aluminum cylinder through the glove material to the inner surface where it might contact skin, as specified in the standard. The testing apparatus measures the rise in temperature inside the glove to assess its heat insulating properties. Practical implications of achieving 'Level X' in convection heat test suggest that the product is either unsuitable for environments where convection heat is a risk, or it necessitates further testing to ascertain its protective capabilities in specific conditions, crucial information for procurement decisions in safety-related industries.
Metal Splash Resistance Level XThe EN 407:2020 standard specifies different levels of protection for gloves against thermal risks, including metal splash resistance. A result marked as 'Level X' under this standard symbolizes that the glove material either did not meet the minimum requirements for testing or that no specific test was conducted for this hazard. The test for Metal Splash Resistance in EN 407:2004 involves exposing the glove material to molten metal splashes to determine how much molten metal is required to heat the glove material to a degree that it would cause risks to the wearer. The practical implication of a 'Level X' rating is that gloves marked as such should not be relied upon for protection against risks of molten metal splashes, making them unsuitable for use in environments where exposure to this hazard is likely.
Burning Behaviour Level XThe EN 407:2020 standard's specified test result Level X for Burning Behaviour indicates that either the test was not conducted or the sample was not applicable for testing under this specific parameter. Consequently, no performance level can be assigned according the criteria set in the standard. This finding is part of a broader testing protocol where Thermal Hazards Protection levels are determined for materials, especially used in gloves intended for heat handling. The test method evaluates the material’s ability to resist catching fire and its rate of burning. To assess burning behavior, the sample is exposed to a small flame, and observations are made on whether it ignites, how long it burns after the flame is removed, and how it extinguishes. Practical implications for products that receive a Level X for Burning Behaviour could include uncertainty in performance when faced with thermal hazards, thus impacting their suitability for jobs involving high temperatures or direct contact with flames.
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 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.
