Taking into account the level of risk covered, the Regulation defines the PPE categories and determines the various manufacturer’s obligations:
• PPE category 1: Protection against minor risks.
• PPE category 2: All PPE that are not category 1 or 3.
• PPE category 3: Protection against disability or fatality
Its objective is to develop test methods and requirements in the form of standards defining the technical specifications of products. Some of them, mostly requirements standards, are harmonised with
EU Regulation 2016/425. Compliance with these harmonised standards gives an assurance of compliance with the requirements of EU Regulation 2016/425
• Category 1 PPE: Evaluation of conformity by the manufacturer (Module A)
• PPE category 2 and 3: EU type examination of the PPE (Module B) by a notified independent body for which compliance (with Regulation EU 2016/425) is verified using standards that are in accordance
with the regulation. Issuance of the EU Type Examination Certificate (confidential document).
• PPE category 1, 2 and 3: CE marking on the product.
• PPE category 3: Control by a notified independent body that ensures compliance of the manufacture with the examined PPE:
- either monitoring of conformity to the type based on the internal control of production and supervised controls of the product at random intervals (Module C2),
- or conformity to the type based on quality assurance of the production method (Module D).
• PPE category 1, 2 and 3: Writing by the manufacturer of the EU Compliance Declaration which proves the compliance of the PPE with Regulation EU 2016/425 to the distributor and the market
enforcement authorities.
