JACOMEX is behind the implementation of ISO 10648-2, the only internationally recognized standard which gives a classification of containment enclosures according to their tightness.
In the early 70s, the company actively participated with the French nuclear authorities in establishing a French tightness standard (Afnor M62200) and manufactured under CEA license the Oxyfuit-device enabling the testing of glove boxes.
End of the 80s, the company had to fight hard in the development of the ISO 10648 standard to maintain a certain strictness, in particular the class 1, facing the German standard DIN 25412, much less rigorous. Today almost all JACOMEX glove boxes are excellent class 1.
