Activities

Main EU Legislative Proposals: Specific topics with a close connection to the water jetting industry, such as training, health and safety and regulations. For these purposes, EWJI is a liaison organisation in the CEN/TC 197 for standardising the pumps and other equipment connected to them. It is also an official campaign partner of the European Agency for Safety and Health at Work, which is part of DG EMPLOYMENT. As part of the campaign for 2023-2025, EWJI has created a technical guide on automation in industrial cleaning. Finally, EWJI is committed to disseminating the EU Taxonomy to its members.
Communication Activities: The EWJI celebrates annually a convention or forum. In both events, there are technical presentations to disseminate best practices for working efficiently and respecting health and safety criteria, dissemination of new technologies and regulatory changes affecting the industry. To disseminate knowledge of the industry and improve practices, EWJI develops educational webinars and technical publications, for example: - Guide about health and safety in water jetting - Guide 'Why use hydrodemolition?' - Guide about the use of automation in industrial cleaning - Guide on applications of hose assemblies in water jetting
