International Certification · Upgrading Global Arc Flash Protection Solutions
In the global power, energy, oil & gas, petrochemical and industrial safety sectors, international certification represents far more than market access. It demonstrates that a product's safety performance, manufacturing quality, and technical capability have been independently verified by internationally recognized certification bodies.
C&G is proud to announce another important milestone.
The ArcPro® 40 cal Arc Flash Protective Clothing Series has officially obtained the EU Type Examination – Product Certificate issued by AITEX, one of Europe's leading testing and certification organizations.
This certification confirms that the product complies with the requirements of the EU Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Regulation (EU) 2016/425, further demonstrating C&G's strong R&D capability, manufacturing excellence, and global competitiveness in Arc Flash Personal Protective Equipment.
AITEX (The Textile Research Institute of Spain) is one of Europe's most respected testing and certification organizations specializing in textiles and personal protective equipment (PPE). It provides testing, certification and technical services for manufacturers worldwide and enjoys broad recognition across both European and international markets.
The EU Type Examination Certificate is one of the most important conformity assessment procedures under the EU PPE Regulation (EU) 2016/425. It confirms that the product has successfully passed rigorous design evaluations, performance testing and conformity assessment, providing a solid foundation for access to the European market.

During an Arc Flash incident, multiple parts of the human body can be simultaneously exposed to intense thermal energy, radiant heat and molten debris.
Effective Arc Flash protection is never achieved by a single garment alone. A complete PPE system should provide comprehensive protection for the head, face, neck, torso, arms, legs and hands.
The newly certified ArcPro® 40 cal Series includes a complete range of professional Arc Flash PPE that can be configured according to different working environments, making it suitable for industries such as:
Arc Flash Jacket
Provides high-level protection for the upper body and arms during high-risk energized work.
Arc Flash Robe
Offers extended coverage for the torso and legs to enhance thermal protection.
Arc Flash Pants / Bib Overalls
Provides durable lower-body protection while maintaining excellent mobility.
Arc Flash Hood
Protects the head, face and neck against Arc Flash thermal hazards.
Arc Flash Gloves
Provides reliable thermal protection for the hands while completing the overall PPE system.
✔ Full-body protection rather than individual garments
✔ Reduces injury caused by Arc Flash thermal energy
✔ All PPE components work together as one integrated protection system
✔ Meets international requirements for comprehensive Arc Flash PPE
Every component is independently tested and manufactured according to international standards, ensuring reliable protection in hazardous electrical environments.
In addition to the AITEX CE Product Certification, the ArcPro® 40 cal Series has successfully passed multiple international testing standards covering European, American and Chinese markets.
These certifications not only expand global market applicability but also demonstrate C&G's long-term commitment to product quality, engineering excellence and international compliance.

Outstanding protection begins with advanced materials.
ArcPro® utilizes Inherently Flame-Resistant (IFR) technology, where flame resistance originates from the molecular structure of the fiber itself rather than from chemical treatments.
As a result, the protective performance remains permanent and will not wash out or diminish after repeated laundering or long-term use.
Inherently Flame Resistant
Permanent protection that will not degrade after washing.
Anti-static
Reduces electrostatic buildup and improves electrical workplace safety.
Durable & Tear Resistant
Excellent mechanical strength for demanding industrial environments.
Lightweight & Comfortable
Combines high-level protection with comfort, breathability and flexibility.
Continuous innovation in ArcPro® fabric technology enables C&G to deliver high-performance Arc Flash protection without compromising wearer comfort, durability or long-term reliability.
Every international certification represents extensive testing, stringent manufacturing requirements and a comprehensive quality management system.
For C&G, certification is not simply a certificate—it is a commitment.
From product development and material selection to manufacturing and performance verification, we remain committed to international standards, continuously improving product quality to provide dependable protection whenever it matters most.
