About the Technical Data

Note: Sources for all chemical test data are independent laboratories. All tests were performed under laboratory conditions and not under actual use conditions. Tests were performed on material samples, not actual garments. All chemicals tested at 95% and 75° F except Sodium Hydroxide, tested at 50%.

Note: These tests were performed in accordance with ASTM standards by independent laboratories. This data is derived from tests performed on material samples only, not finished garments.

Warning: There are uses, environments and chemicals for which these garments and/or fabrics are unsuitable. It is the responsibility of the user to review available data and verify that the garment and/or fabric is appropriate for the intended use and meets all specified government and/or industry standards.

Need A Specific Chemical Tested?

Kappler now offers a free custom testing program.

If you need to document a Kappler fabric against a specific chemical hazard, we offer a custom testing program that makes it easy. When you order a standard minimum number of garments (varies by product), we will conduct custom third-party testing of your specific chemical at no charge. For details contact Customer Service at 1-800-600-4019 or customerservice@kappler.com.
