Explosion Protection Document (EPD/PKD)

The Explosion Protection Document (PKD/EPD) is a legal requirement for every facility operating under the "Regulation on the Protection of Employees from the Hazards of Explosive Atmospheres" dated April 30, 2013.
It is prepared for facilities handling flammable gases, vapors, mists, or dusts, with the aim of identifying and preventing explosion risks in advance.

Why It Matters

• The PKD is one of the first documents examined by labor inspectors and official auditors.

• An incomplete or outdated PKD may result in administrative penalties or even the suspension of operations.

• A properly prepared PKD safeguards your employees, ensures facility integrity, and demonstrates full legal compliance.
