BAAR, SWITZERLAND / AGILITYPR.NEWS / June 18, 2026 / SGS, the world’s leading testing, inspection and certification company, is pleased to host a complimentary webinar, ‘EU Compliance Essentials for Industrial Protective Helmets’, on July 7, 2026.
Industrial safety helmets are a crucial piece of personal protective equipment (PPE), helping to mitigate serious head injuries or death in the workplace. As the design and performance of these products evolve, regulatory requirements have also become more stringent, with differing regional standards continuing to create challenges for manufacturers, suppliers and retailers seeking market access.
In this webinar, expert presenter Daryl Guo provides practical guidance on EU standards and regulatory requirements for industrial safety helmets. He will explain core technical specifications, testing methods and certification schemes, alongside an introduction to the key European standard, EN 397:2025. The session will also compare EU requirements with global standards and provide an overview of different types of industrial head protection equipment. A Q&A session will enable attendees to address specific points relevant to their business.
SGS compliance services will also be explored, offering attendees an overview of comprehensive testing capabilities, from helmet stability to peripheral vision. This event will be of interest to PPE quality and product managers, manufacturers, suppliers, company owners and traders.
Interested parties are invited to register here to secure their place at this informative webinar.
