EN ISO 14116
Protective clothing with lower level of Flame Retardant protection.
The standard is often used for PPE clothing and accessories with lower level Flame Retardant protection, such as High-Visibility vests, rainwear, t-shirts with short sleeves and socks.
It is divided into three classes, where index 3 is the highest level. Index 3 garments should be worn in combination with EN ISO 11612 garments. (It is important to note that Index 1 garments should not be worn next to the skin. This standard does not have a dedicated Symbol/Pictogram.
LOI - Limited Oxygen Index
LOI means the minimum concentration of oxygen (expressed as a percentage) that would be required to support combustion of a fabric. It determines the protection of the garment regarding relative flammability and should be over 25%.
The LOI value is one way to indicate the level of FR protection a garment provides and it makes it easier for the user to compare and choose the right level of protection. LOI level depends on the FR fibre/fibre combination and the fabric weight.
Example of LOI values:
Normal cotton 18%,
Polyester/Nylon 20-22%
Wool 25%
Chemically treated FR cotton 28%
