« Protective garments – general requirements »

This standard is a reference standard. Indeed, it specifies ergonomics, ageing, size and marking general requirements as well as the information to be provided by the manufacturer. It can only be used in association with a standard dedicated to a given risk.
 

« Category II protective garment against occupational disease risk » (capped knee).

These garments enable to limit the risks of capped knees, red patches or callosities. Indeed, thanks to kneepads, the pressures exerted on knees are divided when kneeling down on uneven and sometimes damp zones.
*
Hygrovet is the name registered by the I.N.R.S. which signed a technological partnership chart with KIPLAY. The Hygrovet label on the protective plate and on the garment certifies compliance with I.N.R.S. specifications.

« Category I protective garment for common works in the building and public works sector »

The protective garments for common works in the in the building and public works sector must comply with the technical regulations approved by the executive board of the O.G.B.T.P.

These regulations apply to garments aiming at protecting users against mechanical attacks with superficial effects, excluding any other risk.

The protective garments benefiting from the O.B.S. label belong to the Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) category mentioned in article R 233-154 of the Labour Legislation, called « category I .»

Kiplay is able to create your personal line of OBS clothing starting with 100 model pieces; This line of clothing is composed of 5 models : windjammer, jacket, trouser, coat, coverall.

« High visibility garments»

Standard EN 471 specifies the characteristics that are indispensable to garments aiming at visually signalling the user’s presence so as to detect him and to see him clearly in dangerous situations, in any luminosity conditions, night and day.

Models and categories :

There are three categories of high visibility garments. Each one must have minimal surfaces of materials constituting the garment in accordance with the table below.

The garments must be composed of the required surfaces of fluorescent base material and retro-reflecting material.

Minimal visible surfaces of material (m²)


X : indicates the PPE category (1 to 3)
Y : indicates the result level of the retro-reflecting material (1 to 2)


  Garment category 3 Garment category 2 Garment category 1
Fluorescent base material 0.80 0.50 0.14
Retro-reflecting material 0.20 0.13 0.10

« Protective garments against bad weather »

This standard concerns the protective garments against rain, wind and cold temperatures over -5°C.

X : waterproofness (0 to 3)
Y : evaporative resistance (0 to 3), i.e. the garment’s breathability level.

If the garment has a thermal lining, a second pictogram is added :

X : evaporative resistance
Y : thermal resistance.

« Protective garments against electrostatic charges »

This standard specifies the electrostatic requirements and the test methods for the protective garments dispersing static electricity in order to avoid sparks that may cause fire.



« Protective garments used during welding and related techniques »

This type of category II garment is designed to protect against any small molten metal splashing, short-time contact with a flame and ultraviolet radiations. They shall be worn continually at ambient temperature during a maximum of 8 hours.

« Protective garments for industry workers exposed to heat (except garments for firemen and welders) »

A : limited resistance to flames.
B : resistance to convective heat (1 to 5)
C : resistance to radiant heat (1 to 4)
D : resistance to molten aluminium splashing (1 to 3)
E : resistance to molten metal splashing (1 to 3)

This category II protective garment aims at protecting industry workers against short-time contacts with a flame and against at least one kind of heat, among the following:

- convective heatve
- radiant heat
- significant molten metal splashing
- association of these risks of heat
