ESIG (European Solvents Industry Group) published earlier today their newest Best Practice Guidelines “Respiratory Protection Selection and Use, Guide for Solvents” on their website.

The content of this document was developed by the ESF working group respiratory protection (thanks to those who contributed to this content).

Please do not hesitate to share this document with your contacts. I expect that there will be translations in the (near) future. You can find the English version on https://www.esig.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/BPG_Respiratory-Protection-2025_FINAL.pdf

We would also like to remind you that the ESIG-ESF Best Practice Guidelines “Safe use of gloves for the handling of solvents” is still available (in EN, FR, DE, IT and ES) on the ESIG website (www.esig.org – got to ‘our resources’ – ‘our publications’). Also available in the same languages is the Poster “10 tips for the safe use of gloves when working with solvents” as well as the video “Solvents and the safe use of gloves” (same languages + Greek).
