Personal protective equipment (PPE) protects your workforce from physical, chemical and biological hazards. With BSI testing and certification, you can demonstrate that your PPE meets recognised international standards for durability, material resistance and user comfort.
To help you access key global markets, you can certify your products through BSI as part of CE marking or UKCA marking requirements, ensuring compliance with Regulation (EU) 2016/425 and UK legislation. You can also strengthen your product’s quality and customer trust through the BSI Kitemark. If you’re targeting Australia or New Zealand, Benchmark certification gives you a recognised route to market.
