WORK SAFETY

The gas industry comprises a range of activities including technical gas co-generation, storage, transportation, production, and handling. In addition, all locations where these activities occur are designated as ATEX zones.

It is important to note that compressed gases present a hazard due to the pressure within cylinders, pipes, and storage tanks. Gas industry workers are exposed to various types of risk, such as flammable and inflammable, toxic and non-toxic, inflammable and toxic, and chemically unstable toxic and non-toxic. 

Gases may also be classified based on their chemical properties, such as inflammable, reactive, and toxic, or physical properties, such as compressed, liquid, dissolved under pressure, and cryogenic.

The key standards to be observed for protective clothing and fabrics in this sector are EN ISO 11612, EN 1149-3/5, and EN 13034.

A diverse range of tasks are performed by workers on oil platforms. To cater to the varying safety requirements based on the task, temperature, and season, the personal protective equipment (PPE) of the workers must include multi-protective fabrics.

Our work area within the petrochemical sector is the ATEX zones, which pose high explosive hazards and may result in an electric arc. Therefore, workers in this area must use fireproof and anti-static fabrics as a minimum requirement. It is necessary to ensure the fabrics used are impermeable and treated with either fluorocarbon or welding protection.

In addition, there are monochrome and vehicular traffic areas present. As a result, it is essential for workers to use high-visibility fabrics and fluorescent bands.
