Profile of activities of the Laboratory

Scientific and research  activities relate  to:


  • Development of methods and stands for testing protective gloves and footwear according to the European standards.
  • Determination of the requirements related to the protective and usage parameters of gloves and footwear conforming to the REGULATION (EU) 2016/425 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL of 9 March 2016 on personal protective equipment and repealing Council Directive 89/686/EEC and designated for use in conditions of harmful and hazardous agents.
  • Improvement of the comfort of use of protective gloves and footwear.
  • Development of new models of  protective gloves and footwear that improve safety and ergonomics of their use.
  • Testing of the effects that occur while using gloves and footwear.

Consulting and advisory activities include:

  • The selection of protective gloves and footwear appropriate to the hazards appearing at work stations
  • The choice of the scope of tests for products EC-type examination
  • Methods of products marking

The laboratory also performs tests required to EC-type examintion of protective gloves and footwear
