Chemical protection clothing
Chemical protective clothing plays a crucial role in working environments where people are exposed to potential hazards from chemical substances. If these substances get on the skin, they can cause severe chemical burns or chemical burns.
The appropriate protective clothing must be able to withstand the chemicals over a certain period of time. In this way, they can prevent penetration of undergarments and skin. It is therefore important to choose the type of chemical protective clothing based on the working environment. It is helpful to look at the labelled standards for the product in our online shop or on the clothing itself. This will tell you whether the protective performance of the garment in question is sufficient for the potential hazards. The European standards ensure that protective clothing such as chemical protective clothing meets clearly defined safety standards and offers effective protection.
Effective barrier against chemicals
Chemical protective clothing provides effective protection against the potentially harmful effects of chemicals on the skin and other parts of the body. To ensure this protection, this special clothing is made from materials that are highly resistant to various chemicals. They thus form an effective barrier against the penetration of hazardous substances. The seams are also carefully sealed to prevent the permeation of chemicals.
Standards for chemical protective clothing
The selection of the required chemical protective clothing depends on the type of chemicals, the concentration, the duration of contact and other existing risks. The designated standards are an important point of reference for making a responsible choice. The EN 13034, EN 14325 and EN 1149 standards, for example, ensure that the relevant chemical protective clothing meets the highest safety requirements.
EN 13034 - Protective clothing against liquid chemicals
Workwear that fulfils the EN 13034 standard is particularly suitable for protection against liquid chemicals. Various test methods measure the degree of resistance to splashes, mists and other forms of liquid contact. Chemical protective clothing that complies with this standard offers reliable protection against a wide range of chemical substances. All clothing fabrics that you can find in our chemical protective clothing product category comply with this standard.
EN 14325 - Protective clothing against chemicals
The EN 14325 standard specifies requirements and test methods for protective clothing designed to protect the wearer against chemical hazards. This includes both liquid and gaseous chemicals. The standard describes in detail the tests for the materials and seams of protective clothing against liquid chemicals. They are tested for abrasion resistance, tensile strength, tear resistance and puncture resistance. At least the lowest performance level must be achieved for the chemical protective clothing to comply with this standard.
EN 1149 - Protective clothing with electrostatic properties
Some models in our shop not only fulfil the requirements of EN 13034 and EN 14325, they also prevent electrostatic charging in accordance with the EN 1149-5 standard, which is particularly important in environments where flammable hazardous substances such as chemicals are present. Compliance with this standard ensures that the clothing has antistatic properties. This minimises the possibility of sparks and therefore the risk of fires or explosions.
Correct handling of chemical protective clothing is crucial
The effectiveness of chemical protective clothing does not only depend on the quality of the protective equipment. Proper use is also important in order to avoid accidents. It is crucial that employees are trained on how to put on, check and remove the clothing correctly to minimise the risk of contamination.
Regular maintenance and inspection of chemical protective clothing is essential to maintain the protective effect. Damaged or worn parts should be replaced immediately to ensure the safety of employees.
The correct selection, use and maintenance of protective equipment can minimise potentially serious health risks and ensure a safe workplace.
