EN standards
EN standards for workwear and protective clothing
Who or what sets the guidelines for workwear, and which standards are required? Believe us: one inherent or finished fabric is not the same as another. By asking the right questions and clarifying your specific requirements, we create a personalized solution together that gives your workwear both protection and a strong visual impact.
So if these are your ambitions, you need a partner who can advise you on the most high-quality and cost-efficient solution.
EN ISO 11612
Protection against high temperatures and fire: clothing that protects against flames, convective heat (conduction), radiant heat, molten metal splashes, direct heat, and moisture.
EN 13034
Protection against liquid chemicals: clothing that is liquid-repellent and provides protection against small splashes and light mists of chemical liquids.
EN 61482
Protection against electric arc: clothing that protects when working under voltage where there is a risk of exposure to an electric arc.
EN 1149
Protection against electrostatic discharge (fire and explosion): antistatic clothing prevents the generation of sparks caused by electrostatic charge, which can help prevent fires or explosions.
HACCP & DIN 10524
DIN 10524 consolidates requirements from food safety standards and provides guidelines for workwear to prevent contamination. HACCP emphasizes the importance of appropriate clothing, but does not set requirements for appearance or quality.
EN ISO 20471
Protection through high visibility during the day, at dusk, and at night: clothing that complies with the EN ISO 20471 standard, designed to make the wearer highly visible in all lighting conditions.
EN 14404
Protection for work in a kneeling position: specially designed clothing equipped with certified knee protection according to the EN 14404 standard.
EN 343
Protection against rain and harsh weather conditions: clothing that complies with the EN 343 standard provides essential protection against precipitation such as rain and snow, as well as ground moisture.
EN 14058
Protection against cold conditions: clothing designed to provide protection in environments where temperatures can drop to just above −5 °C.
EN 17353
Enhanced visibility (medium risk): Type A: fluorescent; daylight. Type B: retro-reflective (Cat. 3); dusk and night. Type AB: fluorescent + retro-reflective; day, dusk, night.
EN ISO 11611
Protection during welding and related processes: protective clothing designed to protect against molten metal splashes, brief contact with flames and ultraviolet radiation.
Compliance as a continuous process
Conformity at Van Moer is not a one-time check, but an ongoing process. From the design phase onward, legal requirements, applicable standards (such as ISO and EN standards), safety criteria, and customer requirements are defined. These form the basis for further development and production.
Products are then tested and evaluated, often by accredited laboratories. Based on this, compliance with applicable requirements is documented through a declaration of conformity. During production and delivery, we ensure that every product remains consistent with the approved design. Feedback from use, incidents, complaints, or changes in legislation and standards triggers reassessment. When adjustments are made to the product, its application, or regulations, conformity is re-evaluated and documented.
