Accredited and notified bodies in the product sector of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) are tested at regular intervals and, if the test is successful, are granted renewed approval for accreditation and notification. The Hohenstein Group has successfully passed this test and may continue to certify in accordance with the new PPE regulation.
Personal protective equipment has a preventative health function in the world of work – for those working in trades and crafts as well as laboratory technicians and the fire brigade: the high quality and special technology of PPE protects them from possible risks. For this reason it is important that protective clothing complies with the high demands of harmonised standards. The new regulation now expands the application area to include private use so that these users too can benefit from the same level of protection.
The Hohenstein Group can carry out these EU type examinations for your PPE. In doing this, we confirm that your PPE meets the relevant provisions of the regulation
