Garment advice
December 1st 2007 For the second consecutive
year, DuPont will be
sponsoring the regional
Health and Safety Shows
organised by Western
Business Publishing and will
be taking part in the
seminar programme,
speaking on topics of
headline importance.
The imminent
introduction of an IEC
standard for garments,
updated test methods for
types of arcs and the
introduction of a revised
European Standard to
protect against heat and
flame could affect many
organisations whose
employees are at risk of
burn injury from electric arc.
FR protective clothing
specialist, Elaina Harvey,
will discuss what the
changes in legislation will
mean for end-users and
protective garment
manufacturers.
Ian Samson, European
sales and training specialist,
has expert knowledge of
limited-use protective
garments such as those
made of DuPont Tyvek,
DuPont Tychem and DuPont
Proshield.
He will discuss best
practice in the selection of
limited use protective
garments and, once
selected, how a protective
garment must be put on and
removed to avoid the
potential for crosscontamination
of hazardous
substances.
A range of garments will
feature on DuPont's stand.
