SYMBOLS

CE MARKING FOR PROTECTIVE GARMENTS

 
All Tranemo PPE Clothing is CE marked. The CE marking indicates that a Notified Body has CE type examined these garments according to the PPE Regulation (EU)2016/425. On Tranemo garments you will find this symbol on the inside CE label. The CE label also shows which standards and classes the garments are approved for.

UKCA marking for protective garments 

From 01/01/2025, products sold to Great Britain must be labeled with 
the British product mark UKCA, United Kingdom Conformity Assessed, which will then replace the European CE mark. 

Until then, only CE-marked products are allowed. Tranemo will already now label new products with both CE and UKCA.

INFORMATION SYMBOL

When you find this symbol on the CE label inside the PPE garment it indicates that there is additional information from Tranemo attached to your PPE garment. This information must be read before you start using the garment to ensure that it is worn correctly and giving the optimum protection in the workplace.

TRANEMO SKINSAFE™

The Tranemo Skinsafe™ symbol is shown on each garment that can be combined in the Skinsafe system and recommended by Tranemo. Read more about Tranemo Skinsafe

OEKO-TEX

OEKO-TEX is an independent third-party certification process that ensures control of harmful or hazardous chemicals. Nearly all of fabric and accessories that TRANEMO uses are tested and certified under OEKO-TEX Standard 100, product class 2.

Starting 2024, Standard 100 includes a limit for PFAS (100 mg/kg). Therefore, PPE garments containing PFAS are certified under OEKO-TEX Standard 100 Supplement (special articles) certificate, while PFAS-free garments are still covered by Standard 100.

TRANEMO holds two OEKO-TEX certificates:

OEKO-TEX Standard 100: 2176-340. For garments without PFAS.

OEKO-TEX Standard 100 Supplement (special articles) PPE: 2476-423. For garments with PFAS.

As TRANEMO phases out PFAS across our ranges, all garments will be moved to the PFAS-free Standard 100 certificate, except for range APEX, which will retain PFAS to ensure the safety of chemical workers.
