MASCOT Workwear-Safe Brochure

MASCOT® ACCELERATE SAFE

Protection against cold and rain When cold and rain are really a challenge, you must be able to trust that your workwear will protect you. You can do so by choosing winter workwear with EN 342, protection against cold and EN 343, protection against rain.

EN 343:2019 Products that are certified in accordance with EN 343:2019 are tested for their level of waterproofness and breathability in the product as a whole. This certification is expressed in three different figures which respectively indicates the product’s waterproofness, breathability and whether the finished product has been tested in a downpour. The first two figures indicate a class between 1–4, where four is the highest. The last figure is either an R or an X, where R indicates that the product has been tested.

These classes describe the thermal insulation value, air permeability and, if applicable, the waterproofness of the product. The letter Y on the side of an EN 342:2017 pictogram indicates the thermal insulation value. On MASCOT products, this information won’t be presented beside the symbol. Instead, it is generally stated above the product information section.
