What is Regulation (EU)
2016/425?
Regulation (EU) 2016/425 of 9th March 2016 is the European law
that regulates the market for personal protective equipment,
defines and distributes the responsibilities of the various
economic operators.
Among the innovations introduced by the Regulation, remember:

- the determination of the period of validity of a certificate: not
exceeding 5 years
- the indication on the CE marking of the postal address of the
manufacturer and the production batch number
- possibility of also making the declaration of conformity available
online: https://certificati.sixton.it/
Why can we still place EN ISO

20345:2011 certified PPE on the
market?
Safety footwear certified according to EN ISO 20345:2011 can
continue to be placed on the market until the end of the validity
(expiry date) of the certificates issued by the notified bodies.

EN ISO
20345:2022
20345:2011 will remain valid even after the harmonization of the

new EN ISO 20345:2022 as the new standard does not provide
a significant increase in protection compared to the previous
version.

Why the new standard?

The rules are updated periodically (approximately every 5
years) with consequent publication in the Official Journal of the
European Union. The references of the harmonized standards for
PPE published in the Official Journal of the European Union can
be found by consulting the website of the European Commission
at the following link:

What is the EN ISO 20345:2022

standard?
The new EN ISO 20345:2022 standard was published by CEN
and in the Official Journal of the European Union.
The standard defines the basic and additional (optional)
requirements for general purpose safety footwear. It includes
mechanical hazards, slip resistance, thermal hazards and
ergonomic behaviour, among others.

The identification codes

of the new standard
The standards are evolving to ensure
greater safety and protection of
workers and companies.
The new EN ISO 20345: 2022

provides for the introduction of new
requirements and markings, with the
aim of facilitating the application of
the standard by the manufacturer,
creating equivalent conditions in
all member states and effectively
simplifying the circulation of goods
in Europe.
