Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) Laboratory Services

Personal Protection Equipment (PPE)

Personal protective equipment is used in a variety of fields from medical to athletic.  Many people rely on these products to keep them safe.  The ability to perform difficult jobs is aided by much of this equipment so it is imperative that it be both safe and reliable.

Depending on the piece of personal protective equipment, different tests are run to examine it's abilities to provide protection.  For example, gloves may be tested for durability and capacity to keep chemicals  and liquids off the hands they are protecting.  Non skid shoes may be tested for their traction.  Whatever the piece of equipment, it can undergo thorough testing to ensure it is both safe and effective.
