Antistatic oil and gas workwear: ESTEPA certified FR apparel in an energy environment

Protection

Certifications and types of protection

Choosing the right apparel starts with understanding the risk. In mining and oil & gas, clothing is personal protective equipment (PPE): if it fails, a person is put at risk.

ESTEPA difference

Why certified?

A certification is not a logo: it is proof that the garment was tested by an independent laboratory and meets a measurable protection standard. In mining, oil and gas, clothing is personal protective equipment (PPE). If it fails, a garment is not ruined: a person is put at risk.

What they are for and what you gain

  • Real, verifiable protection against flash fire, electric arc and heat.
  • Authorisation to work: operators require specific standards from contractors; without the standard, you do not enter the mine or the plant.
  • Health and safety compliance backing, with lower legal exposure for the company.
  • Proven durability: tests include performance after industrial laundering.

International certifications we offer

  • North America: NFPA 2112 · NFPA 70E · ASTM F1506 · UL Certified.
  • Europe: EN ISO 11611 · EN ISO 11612 · EN 1149 · EN 61482.
  • Arc protection: CAT 2.
  • Others by line: ISO 20471 (high visibility) · EN ISO 13688 · IRAM (local standard).
