Single-use medical gloves with the EN 455-3 rating are tested for biological safety, including potential chemical residues, latex proteins, and powder content. This ensures the gloves are safe for skin contact, minimizing the risk of irritation or allergic reactions for users and patients.

Medical gloves with the EN 455-4 rating are tested for their shelf life, ensuring they maintain critical properties like strength and barrier integrity over time. This means you can trust that the gloves will remain effective and safe to use until their expiration date, providing reliable protection when needed.

Medical devices with the ISO 13485 rating are tested for their manufacturer's quality management system, ensuring consistent safety and effectiveness. This means you can trust that these products are made with strict quality controls to help ensure they are safe and reliable for their intended use.

Protective gloves with the EN 420:2003+A1:2009 rating are tested for general design, safe materials (innocuousness), water penetration, comfort, and dexterity. This ensures the gloves are safe, fit correctly, and allow you to perform tasks effectively without discomfort.

Gloves with the EN 374-2 rating are tested for resistance to penetration by liquids and microorganisms. This means the glove material is checked for physical defects like pinholes or leaks, ensuring it forms a barrier against harmful substances. You can trust these gloves to be waterproof and block microorganisms.

Gloves with the EN 374-3 rating are tested for their resistance to permeation by hazardous chemicals. This measures how long it takes for dangerous liquids to break through the glove material, helping you select the right protection for working with chemicals.

Products and services from companies with the EN ISO 9001 rating are tested for consistent quality through a robust management system. This means you can expect reliable products and services, fewer issues, and a commitment to meeting your needs.

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 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.

REACH stands for "Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals" it is a regulation of the European Union that governs the registration, evaluation, authorization, and restriction of chemicals. The REACH regulation aims to ensure that the chemicals used in Europe are safe for human health and the environment. The regulation applies to all chemical substances, whether they are used in industrial processes or in everyday products such as cleaning products, paints, and cosmetics. Companies that manufacture, import or use chemicals in the EU must register the chemicals they produce or import, provide safety information and communicate the risks associated with the chemicals. This information will be used to assess the risks and determine if any further action is needed to protect human health and the environment.
