Standards and labels

• EN 14605:2005+A1:2009

  EN 14605:2005+A1:2009 is a European standard that sets rules for how certain types of protective clothing should be tested and what requirements they must meet in order to be considered safe and effective against chemical hazards. The standard covers the test methods and performance requirements for chemical protective clothing such as coveralls, gloves, boots and overalls. The standard also sets requirement for labeling, packaging and storage of these clothing. The "A1" in the standard name refers to the fact that it's an amendment or update to the original 2005 version of the standard. Tests must be done to make sure the protective clothing meets the standard. If the protective clothing pass the tests, they are considered good to use.

• EN 14325:2004

  EN 14325:2004 is a European standard for particle filter respirator mask. It defines the minimum requirements for filter efficiency, filter penetration, and breathing resistance, as well as the test methods used to determine compliance with these requirements. The standard also specifies the types of particle filters that can be used in respirator masks and the information that must be provided by manufacturers. Possible test results include filter efficiency, filter penetration, breathing resistance, which must meet the minimum standards set by the standard.

• EN 14126:1999

  EN 14126:1999 is a European standard that sets guidelines for the protection of medical clothing against infective agents. It specifies the minimum requirements for the protection of medical clothing, including the material properties, design, and construction of the clothing. Testing includes things like barrier resistance, penetration resistance and filtration efficiency. Possible test results would include pass or fail based on whether the clothing meets the safety and performance requirements outlined in the standard.

• EN 1149-5:2008

  EN 1149-5:2008 is a European standard that specifies the requirements for electrostatic dissipative (ESD) gloves. The standard defines performance requirements for material, design, and testing of ESD gloves. The gloves must be able to effectively discharge static electricity and protect the wearer from ESD. Testing includes measuring the surface resistance of the glove material. Pass/fail results are based on the gloves meeting or not meeting the specified requirements.

  Test results

  Material Performance Tested

  The EN 1149-5:2008 standard specifies the performance requirements for material used in protective clothing designed to avoid incendiary discharges. The test result Tested means that the material has undergone relevant evaluation procedures to confirm its static dissipative properties. These tests generally involve measuring the electrical resistance of the material in ohms (Ω) to determine its capability to dissipate electrostatic charges and prevent sparking that could ignite flammable substances. The practical implications of this result for the respective product category (like protective workwear for use in explosive atmospheres) are significant, as it ensures that the clothing provides a level of protection against electrostatic discharges, potentially reducing the risk of fire or explosion in environments with flammable gases, vapors, or dusts.

• EN 13688:2013

  EN 13688:2013 is a European standard that specifies the performance requirements for protective clothing. The standard includes requirements for safety, comfort, and durability, as well as tests for determining these properties. Protective clothing includes items like coveralls, aprons, and gloves that are worn to protect the wearer from hazards. Possible test results include resistance to chemicals, heat, abrasion and tearing, as well as breathability and comfort. The clothing can be tested under different conditions to check if it meets the standard's requirements.

• 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.
