Standards and directives
The common goal of our product managers and services is to offer reliable, sustainable, high-performance products in compliance with the regulations and/or standards of each territory where they are used.
Taking into account the level of risk covered, the Regulation defines the PPE categories and determines the various manufacturer’s obligations:
• PPE category 1: Protection against minor risks.
• PPE category 2: All PPE that are not category 1 or 3.
• PPE category 3: Protection against disability or fatality
This safety eyewear standard covers eye and face protectors for applications in Canada.
Its objective is to develop test methods and requirements in the form of standards defining the technical specifications of products. Some of them, mostly requirements standards, are harmonised with EU Regulation 2016/425. Compliance with these harmonised standards gives an assurance of compliance with the requirements of EU Regulation 2016/425
