Why choose Regatta Professional down jackets?

Performing certain types of trades requires personal protective equipment. These garments and equipment ensure the health and safety of workers subjected to harsh conditions and exposed to work risks. Regatta Professional is a subsidiary of a brand called Regatta founded in 1981 in England. This brand makes a full range of workwear including waterproof jackets, fleece jackets, parkas, down jackets, as well as overtrousers and sweatshirts. It specializes in designing clothing that can withstand harsh weather conditions such as cold and heavy rain.

Clothes that follow European standards

All PPE without exception must comply with current manufacturing standards. These standards encompass all the requirements that guarantee the effectiveness of wearer protection. There are several standards corresponding to each type of work and event. The general standard which governs the manufacture of PPE is the EN 340 standard. This standard specifies the resistance, ergonomics, size, dimensions of a PPE considered. Apart from this standard standard, there are specific standards.

The standard for anti-cold clothing

The EN 342 standard covers the requirements for all clothing used at temperatures below -5°C. Regatta is known for the efficiency of its outdoor workwear, but EN 342 standardized clothing can be worn in an enclosed area such as a cold room. However, this rule is subdivided into two classes. The first corresponds to the breathability of the equipment or in other words its resistance to evaporation. The second specifies its permeability to air.

The standard for rainproof clothing

The role of clothing in the anti-precipitation category is to keep its wearer dry while offering optimal comfort and ease, even in extreme weather conditions. The EN 343 standard specifies the requirements for cold above -5° C and humidity caused by rain, snow or simple water emissions.
