What is personal protective equipment? 

Personal protective equipment, or PPE, includes all items worn to minimize exposure to risks that can cause serious injuries or illnesses. This includes head, eye, hand, respiratory, and hearing protection. Scandia’s PPE equipment is built to handle the tough environments our clients face daily—without compromising on comfort or functionality.

Full-body protection, built for the job 

Scandia’s PPE collection includes:

• Safety helmets and bump caps; 

• Safety goggles and face shields; 

• Hearing protection (earplugs and earmuffs); 

• Respiratory protection (masks and filters); 

• Gloves for chemical, heat, and cut resistance; 

• Protective footwear with anti-slip and steel toe features; 

• Coveralls, jackets, and trousers compliant with industry standards.
  
  

Each item in our range is selected for durability, performance, and compatibility with other safety gear, because PPE only works when it works together.

Compliant with international standards 

All PPE equipment provided by Scandia complies with European regulations, including:

• EN ISO 13688: General requirements for protective clothing;

• EN ISO 20471: High visibility clothing;

• Specific EN/ISO norms depending on the type of protection (e.g. EN 388 for gloves, EN 166 for eye protection).
  
  

Every item carries a CE marking, ensuring it meets the safety and performance requirements for use within the European Economic Area.
