turvemateriaali
Turvemateriaali is a Finnish term that literally translates to “safety material” and refers to engineered substances that are specifically designed to enhance personal, structural, or environmental safety. These materials are used in a wide range of applications such as protective clothing, vehicle components, building construction, and consumer goods. Their primary function is to absorb, dissipate, or redirect kinetic or thermal energy in order to reduce injury or damage to humans, animals, or property.
Typical characteristics of turvemateriaali include high impact resistance, thermal insulation, moldability, and corrosion resistance. Common examples
The development of turvemateriaali is guided by rigorous safety standards such as ISO 13849 for machinery
