  • General Requirements SRC

    This footwear offers the highest-rated slip resistance (SRC). The sole is tested for excellent grip on both soapy ceramic tiles and oily steel surfaces, providing superior protection against slips and falls in wet or greasy conditions.

• EN ISO 374-1:2016

  Protective gloves with the EN 374-1 rating are tested for their ability to resist dangerous chemicals and micro-organisms, including how well they prevent leaks, chemical breakthrough, and material degradation. This rating helps you select gloves that provide certified protection for your hands when working with hazardous substances.

  Test results

  • Specified Requirements Type A

    Provides the highest level of chemical protection for gloves, offering resistance against permeation for at least 30 minutes for a minimum of six specific chemicals. This makes it suitable for handling a variety of chemicals.

• EN 374-5:2016

  Gloves with the EN 374-5 rating are tested for protection against microorganisms like bacteria, fungi, and viruses. This ensures the gloves act as a reliable barrier, helping to keep you safe from harmful germs and reduce the risk of infection.

  Test results

  • Micro-organisms Bacteria & Fungi

    This product protects you from bacteria and fungi. It passed leakage tests, making it a reliable barrier when handling materials where these micro-organisms are a risk, such as in cleaning or laboratory work.

  • Micro-organisms Virus

    This glove is tested to protect you from bacteria, fungi, and viruses. It provides a reliable barrier, having passed specific tests to ensure no leakage when exposed to these micro-organisms, making it suitable for handling contaminated materials.

• EN 388:2016

  Gloves and arm protectors with the EN 388 rating are tested for protection against mechanical risks like abrasion, cuts, tears, punctures, and sometimes impact. This helps you choose protective gear with the right level of durability and safety for tasks that involve these hazards.

  Test results

  • Abrasion Resistance Level 3

    Provides good resistance against scraping, scratching, and rubbing on rough or abrasive surfaces.

  • Cut Resistance, Coup Test Level 1

    Provides minimal protection against cuts from a rotating blade under constant, low force.

  • Cut Resistance, ISO 13997 Level A

    Protects against low cut risks with minimal force, suitable for general purpose handling.

  • Puncture Resistance Level 1

    Provides basic protection against punctures from blunt objects like splinters, not sharp points like needles.

  • Tear Resistance Level 2

    Offers moderate resistance against snagging or catching on rough objects, preventing small rips from growing.

• EN 407:2004

  Gloves and other hand protection with the EN 407 rating are tested for protection against heat and/or fire, including flame, contact heat, and molten metal splashes. This helps you choose products that offer a specific level of defense against various thermal hazards, ensuring your hands stay safe.

  Test results

  • Burning Behaviour Level X

    This product has not been tested for its performance when exposed to an open flame. It is not rated for fire resistance and should not be used for protection against direct contact with flames.

  • 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.

  • Heat Convection Level X

    This product was not tested for protection against convective heat, which is the transfer of heat through moving air, such as from a flame. Therefore, it has no claimed performance level for this specific thermal risk.

  • Metal Splash Resistance Level X

    This product has not been tested for resistance against splashes of molten metal under the EN 407 standard. It does not offer rated protection for tasks where this is a risk, such as welding.

  • 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.

  • Radiant Heat Level X

    This product was not tested for protection against radiant heat, which is intense heat that can be felt from a distance. It does not claim to offer protection for tasks involving prolonged exposure to radiant heat sources.

Labels

• Oeko-Tex Standard 100

  Oeko-Tex Standard 100 is a product certification program for textiles, which is awarded by the Oeko-Tex Association. This program verifies that the textile products are free from harmful chemicals. To be able to use the Oeko-Tex Standard 100 label, a product must meet certain requirements set by the Oeko-Tex Association which include limits on the levels of harmful substances such as pesticides, heavy metals, and formaldehyde. The textile products are inspected and certified by Oeko-Tex, they can use the Oeko-Tex Standard 100 label on their packaging to show that they are free from harmful chemicals. This certification is for all types of textiles, from raw materials to finished products, and it is globally recognized.

• 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.
