Personal Protective Equipment
Intertek is accredited by the Standards Council of Canada (SCC), SEI and recognized by OSHA. We have performed evaluations in accordance with such standards as ANSI, ASTM, NFPA, CPSC, EN, CSA, SAE, AS and ISO among other industry specifics. We also offer testing services for penetration (ASTM F903) and permeation (ASTM F739).
Our state-of-the-art testing equipment helps ensure complete, accurate and repeatable results every time. We are capable of testing with nearly all chemical and biological agents, and for certain warfare agents we have a relationship with a partner lab to ensure seamless service.
To better serve our international clients we maintain an alliance with a U.K. based Notified Body that accepts Intertek data for the issuance of a notified CE Mark.
If your organization repairs structural and proximity firefighting garments, email our Inquiry Center today to receive an application to become an NFPA 1851-2008 Verified Independent Service Provider (ISP).
