Our lives depend on them - especially if we are talking about Personal Protective Equipment against falls from heights!
We are protected when working in exposed positions and we are protected in leisure time – when climbing or when gliding with a delta glide – we are up to the safety of this safety equipment.
The European Directive for Personal Protective Equipment (89/686/EWG), which is implemented in Austria by the PSA-Sicherheitsverordnung (Bundesgesetzblatt Nr. 596/1994 i.d.g.F.), demands rightly the Type Approval for this equipment by specially accredited and in the EU notified bodies.
