Personal protection equipment (PPE)

IMPORTANT !!!

Working in our labs always requires certain personal protection equipment. Therefore, it is mandatory to always have the following available:

  • Lab coat / work outfit*
  • Safety shoes
  • Safety glasses

​Lockers can be used to store personal protection equipment!

More information on where to get these PPE's can be found in our FAQ!​

PROVIDED BY THE LAB !!!

Certain lab activities requires other (extra) personal protection equipment as mentioned above. The following is provided by the lab:

  • Gloves 
  • Ear protection
  • Dust masks (≠ mouth masks !!!)


Collective protection equipment (CPE)

Collective protection equipment should always be the first step! E.g. when working with filler particles, it is better to use a (mobile) fume hood instead of using a dust mask. Different CPE are used in our labs:

  • Fume cupboard
  • Fume hood (mobile and fixed)
  • "No touch" housing (e.g. Autosaw)
