OSHA & cryogenic protocol

What OSHA asks, and what the GERF® kit includes

OSHA has no single cryogenic standard: the general PPE rules apply, plus the OSHA QuickFacts guidance for cryogens and dry ice.

OSHA reference What it requires How the GERF® kit covers it
29 CFR 1910.132 Assess workplace hazards, select PPE for each hazard and train workers. Zone-by-zone kits (head, hands, torso, legs) and certificates you can attach to your hazard assessment.
29 CFR 1910.133 Eye and face protection against liquid splashes. Face shield worn over safety glasses or goggles, included in GERF® safety kits.
29 CFR 1910.138 Hand protection against harmful temperature extremes. Cryogenic gloves tested to EN 511 (cold) and EN 388 (mechanical), in 5 lengths.
OSHA QuickFacts: Cryogens & Dry Ice Never handle LN2 or dry ice with bare hands; use a face shield together with safety glasses or goggles. Gloves + face shield + safety glasses in one kit, plus apron and gaiters for splash zones.
29 CFR 1910.136 Foot protection where feet are exposed to hazards. Gaiters keep cryogenic splashes out of footwear; pair them with your required safety shoes.

OSHA does not certify or approve PPE brands. The employer is responsible for the hazard assessment and PPE selection; GERF® supplies certified equipment and documentation to support it.
