              SAFETY STANDARDS: PROTECTION AGAINST LIQUID CHEMICALS

              EN 13034: PROTECTIVE CLOTHING AGAINST LIQUID CHEMICALS - LIMITED PROTECTIVE PERFORMANCE
              The guide describes the classification of different properties which must be tested. EN 13034 covers the lowest level of chemical protection
              intendant to protect from a potential exposure to small quantities of spray or accidental low volume splashes of less hazardous chemicals against
              which a complete liquid permeation barrier (at a molecular level) is not required.
               EN13034      1: TYPE 6
                            Suits protect at least the trunk and limbs (e.g. one-piece coveralls or two piece suits)
                            2: TYPE PB(6)
                            Partial body protection Type PB[6] cover and protect only speciic parts of the body (e.g. Jackets, aprons,...)

              SAFETY STANDARDS: EXPOSURE TO INDUSTRIAL HEAT


              EN ISO 14116: PROTECTIVE CLOTHING AGAINST LIMITED FLAME SPREAD MATERIALS
              The standard is not applicable for ire ighters (EN 469) and welders (EN 470 - EN ISO 11611). The aim is to reduce the possibility of the
              clothing burning and thereby itself constituting a hazard: the wearer should not get extra injuries due to the burning of his clothing.
