Do open-weave or mesh fabrics meet the background materials requirements of the standard?
Because the performance of the garment is greatly affected by what the user wears under it, it may be difficult for open-weave or mesh fabrics to meet the standard for Class 2 and 3 garments. However, for Class 1 garments, mesh when combined with 310 square inches of combined performance materials will meet the 107 standard. The designation of the standard is ANSI/ISEA 107-1999. I have heard of ANSI standards but what is ISEA’s role in this standard? ISEA is the national trade association for suppliers of safety and personal protective equipment. ISEA is dedicated to protecting the health and safety of all workers through the development of workplace standards and the education of users on safe work practices and exposure prevention. ISEA is the secretariat of the standard, which means that it develops and publishes the standard. As the secretariat, all requests for interpretation of the standard are referred to ISEA. My workers are only out during the day/night. Why do I need so much
