Welding Curtains
What are welding curtains?
The welding curtains or welding screen's sole purpose is to create and maintain a barrier between the welding area and welders to that of anyone unrelated to welding. These “curtains'' help you create or maintain a safe and secure working environment by reducing the risk of ear damage. Automatic welding curtains and sliding welding curtains are also available for industrial work to reduce overall irritation to employees that are working in nearby stations.
In Europe, all welding curtains, strips, and other products for the protection of welding areas using transparent materials, must meet the European standard: EN ISO 25980 (formerly EN-1598). This standard was last revised in 2015.
The EN ISO 25980 standard determines compliance in the area of:
Filtration
- Filtration of harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays and barely visible blue light:
- Elimination of UV rays between 210 and 313 nm.
- Almost entirely filter UV rays between 313 and 400 nm.
- Filter out blue light on a gradual scale (between 400 and 600 nm).
- Restricted filtration of visible light (600 to 1400 nm).

Features of Weld curtains
- How protects the welder from UV reflection?
Welding light projected onto a welding curtain can be reflected a maximum of 10 percent. This prevents the welder from being exposed to the dangers of UV rays reflected via the welding curtain.
- UV stability
Materials can discolor due to exposure to UV radiation, such as in the case of sunlight. The discoloration of welding curtains directly influences its filtering properties. The EN ISO 25980 stipulates the minimum requirements for protection. Hytek product provides long-term filtration properties.
- Flame retardant
Should a welding curtain catch fire it will self-extinguish once the material has been removed from the heat source. During a test method, a piece of curtain 190 x 90mm is exposed to a flame for 15 seconds. If the curtain catches fire, it should self-extinguish within 3 seconds and the flame should not exceed a height of 150mm.
- Mechanical strength
On CEPRO’s initiative, standards have also been set for the mechanical strength of automatic welding curtains. Under the stipulated conditions, the suspension eyelets and seams are strong enough to withstand a weight of 7 kilos.
- Marking
An approved curtain must indicate the following;
- Name and registration number of the manufacturer (in our case that of CEPRO)
- EN ISO 25980 (EN 1598) marking
- Month and year of production
- Approval marking
