<p>The Personal Protective Equipment Regulation 2016/425 sets out essential safety
requirements that PPE must meet. This includes an obligation on the manufacturer to

performance may be significantly affected by ageing.</p><p> </p><p>The Government
has had no discussions with PPE producers about changing this requirement in the Regulation,
but welcomes new technological innovation to improve short PPE use-by dates.</p>
