Standards and labels

• EN ISO 12947-2:1998

  Textile fabrics, such as those used in upholstery and clothing, with the EN ISO 12947-2:1998 rating are tested for their abrasion resistance using the Martindale method, measuring how many rubs they endure before showing signs of breakdown. This indicates the fabric's durability, helping you choose products that will withstand wear and tear and maintain their appearance longer.

• PPE Category 1

  PPE stands for "personal protective equipment." PPE Category 1 refers to equipment that is simple and easy to use, and has a lower level of risk. Examples of PPE Category 1 include gloves, goggles, and simple respirators. In Europe, PPE Category 1 must meet certain safety standards set by the European Union. This means that it must be designed and manufactured to protect the user without causing harm. Companies that make or sell PPE must prove that it meets these standards.
