frequently asked questions
Chemical protective clothing is classified based on the type and level of protection offered:
- Type 6 and PB[6]: Protects against limited chemical splash; ideal for mild chemical exposure and low-risk environments.
- Type 4: Full liquid penetration resistance for areas with moderate chemical risks.
- Type 3: Offers the highest level of protection against pressurized liquid chemicals.
A chemical protection suit is commonly referred to as chemical protective clothing or a chemical splash suit. These garments are designed to protect against specific chemical hazards and are often categorised by their compliance with standards such as BS EN 13034.
Protective clothing for chemical environments is designed to shield workers from potential exposure to harmful substances like acids, alkalis, and solvents. Alsico’s chemical splash garments, for example, are crafted with fabrics that feature fluorocarbon finishes, enhancing their resistance to mild chemicals while maintaining breathability and comfort.
The highest level of chemical protective clothing is typically classified as Type 1, which provides a gas-tight suit for environments with airborne chemical risks.
To maintain the effectiveness of limited chemical splash garments:
- Wash them separately from standard garments.
- Use tumble drying at specific temperatures to reactivate the fluorocarbon finish.
- Re-treat garments with a fluorocarbon rinsing agent every five wash cycles for optimal performance.
