Abstract

The process of individualizing personal protective equipment (PPE) is aimed at achievingoptimal fit to the user's body, thus maximizing comfort, especially when PPE is applied in critical conditions. The aim of the research was to confirm the possibility of implementing PPE in rea industrial conditions and to estimate the comfort of use in real conditions of use. In order to perform the last stage of the personalization procedure for firefighter suits, process qualification was carried out in an industrial environment, and the firefighter's PPE fabricated was validated under real conditions of firefighters' activities. The effect of implementation of the individualization procedure confirmed optimal fitting of the PPE to the individual user's body and allowed for improvement of the comfort of use.
