Our Technical compliance team instigate over 800 tests
annually with independent Notified bodies. This includes
testing for certification and our own continuous internal
auditing and compliance activity.

The Portwest Technical team insist on specifying
performance in excess of that specified by Safety
standards for our technical fabrics and trims, to
ensure compliance every time.

Certified to ANSI (American National
Standards Institute) means that our
products have been tested and certified
by a third party testing facility to meet all the
requirements of that relevant ANSI standard.
Product categories that are tested include high
visibility, hand protection and PPE.

In addition, many of our products also carry the
internationally recognized CE marking, meaning they
conform with European health, safety and environmental
protection standards.
