See Nomex ProVis garments at Health and Safety '10 - North
DuPont's Nomex ProVis yellow high-visibility garments will be a major feature at Health and Safety '10 - North. These EN 471 compliant garments offer inherent protection from heat and flame, from molten metal splashes, and from the heat of an electric arc; they are anti-static and perform in environments where high daylight visibility is required. DuPont says the special construction of Nomex ProVis fabric provides equivalent thermal and physical properties to Nomex Comfort fabrics, in combination with the additional requirements for EN 471 high-visibility yellow.
DuPont Personal Protection will also be highlighting the new free online training tool that provides assistance when selecting protective clothing, thereby ensuring that Type 4 spray-resistant chemical protective suits are worn in safety. It takes only five minutes for the The interactive tool to understand the key criteria required to select appropriate Type 4 coveralls. The online training tool is particularly relevant for industries using sensitive application methods, where greater protection against liquids and dusts is required and in which allergenic sprays or compounds are used.
While there are many protective coveralls available on the market, not all of them provide the same level of performance, even if they are certified for the same type of protection. Visit www.dpp-europe.com to discover if your proactive clothing is providing the safety measures you need.
Back by popular demand, Ian D Samson will be presenting a talk on October 13 at H&S '10 Bolton about the correct process to don and doff PPE properly - and the dramatic consequences if this is not done.
