- EN 1149-5 addresses electrostatic dissipation as part of a properly earthed clothing system. It does not provide protection from mains electricity.
- Type 6 is limited chemical splash protection. Suitability still depends on the chemical, concentration, temperature, exposure method and complete certified ensemble.
- For the certified ensemble, these trousers must be worn with the matching jacket.

Frequently asked questions
Does antistatic clothing protect against electric shock?
No. EN 1149-5 concerns electrostatic charge dissipation and does not provide protection from mains electricity.
Does limited splash protection cover every chemical?
No. The current SDS, chemical concentration, temperature and likely exposure must be reviewed before selection.
Can ProfTek help with other antistatic garments?
Yes. The wider range includes different garment types and protection combinations for industrial applications.
