EN1621-1:2012 - Limb Protectors Standard

All shoulder, elbow, hip and knee protectors need to be tested and certified under the above standard.

Always buy CE Certified protectors. There are 2 levels of protectors, Level 1 and Level 2. 

Level 2 giving higher impact and shock absorption which reduce the severity of injuries in the event of an accident. 

It is suggested to replace impact protectors at least every 2 years.

It is also recommended to regularly inspect your protectors for signs of wear.

Some materials can harden in cold conditions, and if the garment is folded, this can cause the protector to crack or break.

We have made this video to give you more information on limb protectors markings, safety and the differences between Level 1 and Level 2.
