This European standard specifies test methods and minimum performance requirements for reflective protective clothing used in special firefighting.

This suit provides protection against flame licking and intense radiant heat and is only worn for short periods of time to allow the firefighter to enter high-risk special firefighting and fire rescue situations that also require the use of breathing apparatus.
