ISO 18639 series of standards specify requirements of personal protective equipment (PPE) specifically designed to protect firefighters from injury and/or loss of life while engaged in specific rescue activities. ISO 18639 series provides the principles that govern the development of incident type and/or hazard specific minimum test methods including design and performance requirements for personal protective equipment (PPE) worn by firefighters and other rescue workers to reduce injury and/or t...view more

ISO 21924-1:2017 specifies the general requirements and test methods for innocuousness, ergonomics, restraint, zone of protection, impact performance, as well as provisions for marking and the information supplied by the manufacturer for protective equipment used in martial arts. The protectors covered by this document are mainly designed for use in unarmed martial arts such as taekwondo, karate, kick-boxing and similar disciplines. Additional requirements and test methods for components of prot...view more

This Technical Report sets out guidance for the selection, use, care and maintenance of clothing and related items of personal protective equipment designed to prevent hazards caused by static electricity in hazardous areas.
Static electricity should not be confused with mains supply electricity, or other forms of electric current; the requirements for protection against static electricity are different to the requirements for protection against hazards associated with electric current. Protect...view more

This European Standard provides guidance on the generic ergonomic characteristics related to personal protective equipment (PPE).
It specifies for the writers of PPE product standards, principles relating to:
- anthropometric characteristics related to PPE;
- the biomechanical interaction between PPE and the human body;
- the thermal interaction between PPE and the human body;
- the interaction between PPE and the human senses: vision; hearing; smell and taste; and skin contact.

This European Standard specifies a test method for materials intended to be used in the manufacturing of electrostatic dissipative protective clothing (or gloves) to avoid incendiary discharge. This test method is not applicable for materials to be used in the manufacturing of protection clothing or gloves against mains voltages.

This Technical Report sets out guidance for the selection, use, care and maintenance of clothing designed to provide protection to the wearer. The guidance set out in this Technical Report are intended for all types of protective clothing and may be completed by additional specific guidelines for clothing designed to address specific risks.

This document can be used to compare the performance of different ensembles as part of any PPE selection process.
This document does not replace the product standards for the certification of individual items of PPE. It specifies the testing of individual items of PPE as an ensemble, so that the interaction between the individual items of PPE can be evaluated and any adverse interactions between the individual items of PPE can be identified.
It specifies requirements for testing by either asse...view more
