Welding Safety: Understanding Standards EN ISO 11611 and EN ISO 11612
Welding is an integral process within many industries, including construction, automotive manufacturing, and heavy industry. Although essential, welding activities inherently present significant safety hazards such as intense heat, sparks, molten metal splashes, and radiation exposure. Appropriate flame-resistant protective clothing is therefore indispensable, acting as the first line of defence in mitigating these risks. When selecting protective clothing for welding, understanding the distinctions between the key standards, EN ISO 11611 and EN ISO 11612, is crucial. Both standards address heat and flame protection, but their specific applications and performance criteria differ significantly. ...
