Standards and approvals

Always protect with style! SEGURA is firmly committed to ensuring its riders an optimal level of safety while preserving the essential aesthetics and comfort of the brand's products.

A HIGH LEVEL OF SAFETY REQUIREMENTS

The protective equipment sold by SEGURA is designed, drawn, and developed in France (Europe). The offer is designed to meet the needs of a very wide range of amateurs and professionals.

SEGURA has equipped MotoGP and endurance riders. The level of demand and the rigor in the design of the equipment are identical regardless of the product on which our teams work.

All equipment is CE marked to ensure optimal protection for riders.

We test our products in internal laboratories to ensure compliance with safety requirements, and once our products are finalized, we launch series of tests conducted by accredited laboratories.

The European regulation EU2016/425 regulates Personal Protective Equipment, including equipment for motorcyclists. All extreme sports and activities that may be subject to risks have their PPE (skiing, cycling, firefighters, etc.).

It indicates that all products that suggest they offer protection must indeed be protective and meet certain requirements. This certification is obtained by validating various tests (chemical, ergonomic, mechanical, etc.) carried out by an accredited European control body.

There are 4 European standards concerning motorcycle equipment:

EN 17092 for Clothing

EN 13594 for Gloves

EN 13634 for Footwear

EN 1621 for protections

In summary, we can say that CE-marked equipment has all the required characteristics to ensure the safety of the user of 2 or 3 wheels in the event of a fall.

However, we cannot guarantee that our equipment, even certified, will protect you from any damage that may be caused by a fall or accident.

EN 17092

The standard EN 17092:2020 establishes safety requirements for protective clothing worn by motorcyclists.

It defines tests and performance criteria for abrasion resistance, impact resistance, tear resistance, seam strength, harmlessness, protector placement, dimensional stability, and ergonomics.

Based on their performance in seam strength, abrasion resistance, and tear resistance, the clothing is divided into different performance classes ranging from C to AAA.

EN 13594

Adopted in July 2015, the standard EN 13594:2015 applies to gloves, made mandatory for motorcyclists and their passengers by Article R431-1-1 of the Highway Code.

The standard EN 13594 establishes safety requirements for gloves in terms of size, ergonomics, harmlessness, impact protection, abrasion resistance, tear resistance, and seam strength.

It aims to ensure the protection of motorcyclists' hands while riding.

EN 13634

The standard EN 13634 establishes safety requirements for protective boots worn by motorcyclists.

It specifies tests and performance criteria for adhesion strength, harmlessness, impact abrasion resistance, impact cut resistance, tear resistance, as well as ergonomics, abrasion resistance, and impact resistance.

It aims to ensure adequate protection of motorcyclists' feet and ankles while riding.

EN 1621

The EN 1621 standard defines safety requirements for body protection worn by motorcyclists, such as elbow pads, shoulder pads, and knee pads mandatory for EN 17092 certified products, as well as back protectors and hip protectors.

It specifies tests and performance criteria for shock absorption, penetration resistance, and comfort.

It establishes two performance levels (only for back protectors): level 1 and level 2.

Compliance with this standard ensures increased protection when riding motorcycles.

THE ROAD TO PRODUCT APPROVAL

All our tests are conducted by accredited laboratories.

By using these providers, we ensure that we offer our end customers genuine personal protective equipment, suitable for motorcycles.

Here is the clear path a product follows from its design to your retailer. Each year, over 100 new products are tested and certified.

PRODUCT DESIGN

Our designers develop a sample that will undergo all necessary tests for its certification.

CHEMICAL TEST

The goal is to verify that the materials used are durable and not harmful to the user
(acidity, colorfastness, azoic components, etc.).

TEAR TEST

Test conducted in traction on each of the product's structural materials.

ABRASION TEST

The product is cut into different zones.
The most exposed areas must resist abrasion.
The material or assembly of materials must withstand a certain time before piercing.

HOLDING TEST

This test aims to verify that the product will not tear off in case of an accident.
The sleeve is tested using a conical sleeve, and the product must withstand a certain force without tearing off.

SEAM STRENGTH TEST

Each structural seam of the product must be tested to ensure it will not tear in case of an accident.
Test conducted by traction on the seam.

IMPACT ATTENUATION TEST

Test applied to protections struck on an anvil.
By calculating the difference between the force given at impact and the force transmitted, the shock absorption potential of the protection is obtained.

How to know if your equipment is certified?

The standard EN 17092 requires a pictogram on the composition label. Usually located inside the equipment, it includes the biker pictogram and the protection level class.

The standards EN 13594, EN 13634, and EN 1621 incorporate other information related to the very characteristics of the equipment or the presence or absence of protections.

In summary, we can say that equipment certified by one of the previously detailed standards presents all the characteristics required to guarantee the safety of the user of 2 or 3 wheels in the event of a fall/during its use.

The intention of BERING is to never compromise between the richness of our technicality and the lines of our products.

Our wide choice of membranes, insulators, materials, cuts, and technical features allows BERING to offer the perfect symbiosis of comfort, protection, and timeless, visionary style.
