This European Standard specifies general performance requirements for ergonomics, innocuousness, size designation, ageing, compatibility and marking of protective clothing and the information to be supplied by the manufacturer with the protective clothing.

The main changes included in this edition of the standard are as follows. Basic health and ergonomic requirements including test methods have been added. Most of the requirements affect the suppliers of materials to garment manufacturers. Other requirements are of importantance for the garment manufacturers to comply with specific product standards. The industrial washing test procedure has been included because this kind of washing is frequently applied to many types of protective clothing. The size designation system has been improved to take account of the size requirements of the BS EN 13402 series.
