Standards and Procurement Notes
Common procurement references include EN 166 and ANSI/ISEA Z87.1 for industrial eye and face protection. In Malaysia, DOSH/SIRIM approval is relevant for eye protection used for chemical hazards. For Singapore worksites, selection should follow WSH risk assessment and the site standard, often referencing SS 473, EN 166 or ANSI Z87.1 requirements.
Common Questions
What eye protection is needed for chemical splash?
Use sealed safety goggles for the eyes and add a compatible face shield when the risk assessment identifies wider face splash exposure.
Are face shields enough on their own?
Usually no. A face shield protects the face but is commonly worn with safety glasses or goggles underneath for eye protection.
How should buyers choose between EN 166 and ANSI Z87.1 eyewear?
Check the workplace requirement, lens/frame markings, impact rating, splash or dust protection and whether the product documentation matches the site risk.
Can Safetyware support bulk eyewear selection?
Yes. Contact Safetyware for model selection, quotation, sizing and project supply support.
