Key Knowledge of Coverall:

Test Report ≠ Product Certification

We often hear claims that a coverall is “certified,” but is that truly the case? Many coveralls are only tested, not certified. A Test Report by a local testing agency might show that a sample met certain standards, but this is not the same as full Product Certification such as Regulation (EU) 2016/425 by a recognized body.

Test Report

BASIC TESTING

Only a few quality samples are sent for testing.

ONE-TIME RESULTS

Results are valid only for the samples, not entire product line.

LIMITED ASSURANCE

Lacks batch consistency and guarantees of ongoing quality.

Product Certification

Concept Map of Regulation (EU) 2016/425

In conclusion, a Test Report is useful for quick quality checks, it does not provide the same assurance as a Product Certification, which guarantees comprehensive safety and manufacturing standards under strict regulatory compliance. Don’t be misled—knowing the difference between “tested” and “certified” is key to making informed choices!
