EN 407:2020
Protection against thermal risks
EN 407 is applicable to gloves and hand protective equipment intended to protect the hands or part of the hand against risks such as flames, contact heat, radiant heat or convective heat. The current version of EN 407 was published in April 2020 and the requirements of this recent standard are explained in detail by Hannah Coe, Certification Assessor.
User information & Glove Marking, Series summary
Tara Holly, Certification assessor, hosts this final webinar in the series, covering the mandatory information required for marking on protective gloves and their packaging, and the information required from the manufacturer. The webinar concludes with Martin Heels presenting a short recap summary of the glove webinar series.
Update on Testing Safety Footwear Toecaps and Midsoles
EN 12568 has recently been replaced with EN ISO 22568: 2019 parts 1 to 4. Foot and Leg Protectors. Requirements and test methods for footwear components. Darren Roberts, SATRA’s Footwear Testing Manager, outlines the main changes, particularly with respect to measuring perforation resistance of non-metallic insert materials.
Testing and Certification of Motorcycle Footwear
Simon Courtney and Daniel Cotter discuss the testing and certification requirements for motorcycle footwear, including tests on the integrity of the whole boot, including measurement of the bond strength between the upper and outsole and testing to assess the transverse rigidity of the boot.
Acoustic Testing of PPE Products
Simon Courtney runs through the types of hearing protection PPE products SATRA tests, the legislation required, testing and assessments and the EN 352 series of standards. In addition, he covers ANSI / ASA standards for products going to the USA. There are a number of interesting developments in acoustic testing such as the scanning of subjects’ ear canals for moulded products which are also discussed. Simon also mentions how the new UKCA mark will affect the certification of hearing protection products.
