Flame-Resistant Clothing - A Vital Choice!
Flame-resistant clothing plays a crucial role in ensuring employee safety in the workplace. They provide protection against electrical hazards, fire, heat, and liquid chemicals. This type of protective equipment is essential for employees in the electrical and power industries, petrochemicals and welding, or in any other industry where there is a risk of exposure to flames or intense heat.
At Arbetsskydd Express AB, we are committed to offering workwear that follows strict safety, standards and guidelines. Our goal is to minimize the risk of injuries at work.
Safety standards are communicated through symbols on the labeling or packaging of protective clothing. These symbols indicate that the garment has been certified to meet the specific requirements of these standards while also providing a quick overview of the type of protection offered. This ensures that users can easily select the appropriate equipment for their safety needs.
Among our products, you will find clothes certified according to the following standards
