Abstract
Protective clothing is designed to protect humans
against risks like fire, chemicals or blunt impact.
Although protect¡ve clothing diminishes the effects
of external risks, it may hinder people in functioning
and it may also introduce new (internal) risks.
Manufacturers are often not aware of the seriousness
of those risks. Prof. Daanen, human movement
scientist, postulates that knowledge on human
physiology must be part of protective clothing
design. After a career in protective clothing research
that started about 25 years ago at TNO (NL) he is
entitled to say things like that.
