The Portwest PR12 Air Safety safety glasses are an ultralight piece of eye protection weighing just 12.5 grams, making them one of the lightest models in their category.

The compact, panoramic design offers a wide field of vision and fits smaller face shapes well.
For what type of work and conditions are the Portwest PR12 Air Safety safety glasses suitable?
The PR12 Air Safety is suitable for work where there is a risk from flying particles, dust, and harmful UV radiation, such as in construction, industry, logistics, and outdoor work.
The compact frame fits smaller face shapes well, while the slim temples allow for use with hearing protection without uncomfortable pressure points. The glasses are 100% metal-free, also making them suitable for environments where metal detection is required. Thanks to their ultralight weight of 12.5 grams, the glasses are particularly comfortable for extended use throughout a full workday.
What do the EN 166, EN 170, and EN 172 standards mean for the Portwest PR12 safety glasses?
The PR12 complies with three European standards, each covering a different aspect of eye protection. EN 166 (1 FT) is the basic standard for personal eye protection and indicates that the lenses are resistant to high-energy particles and are scratch-resistant.
EN 170 (2C-1.2) concerns ultraviolet filtering: class 2C means that the glasses effectively filter UV radiation while ensuring color recognition. EN 172 (5-3.1) relates to sunlight filtering for outdoor use, where class 5-3.1 indicates a medium level of light protection. Together, these standards make the glasses suitable for both indoor and outdoor work involving UV exposure.
The anti-scratch and anti-fog coating extends the lifespan and ensures clear vision under changing temperature conditions.
