Standards and labels

• EN 511:2006

  Gloves with the EN 511:2006 rating are tested for protection against convective cold (from air/wind), contact cold (from touching objects), and water penetration. This helps ensure your hands stay warm and protected in various cold conditions, preventing discomfort and cold-related injuries.

  Test results

  Convective Cold Level 0

  This product was tested for protection against cold air but did not meet the minimum performance level. It offers no specific insulation against convective cold, making it suitable for conditions where wind and cold air are not a risk.

  Cold Contact Level 4

  Provides the highest level of insulation when holding cold objects, keeping your hands warm and protected from cold burns. Ideal for prolonged work in freezing environments or handling materials at extremely low temperatures down to -50°C.

  Water Tightness Level X

  This product was not tested for water penetration resistance. It may not protect your hands from getting wet and could lose its insulating properties in damp or snowy conditions, so it is best for use in dry cold environments.

• EN 388:2016

  Protective gloves with the EN 388:2016 rating are tested for resistance against mechanical risks like abrasion, cuts, tears, punctures, and optional impact. This rating helps you quickly identify and choose gloves that offer the right level of protection for your hands during various tasks.

  Abrasion Resistance Level 2

  Withstands moderate rubbing and friction, offering good protection for tasks involving handling rough materials.

  Tear Resistance Level 1

  Provides basic resistance against snagging or catching on rough surfaces, offering minimal protection from tearing.

  Cut Resistance, ISO 13997 Level X

  Provides the highest level of cut protection, passing a specialized test for materials that dull blades.

  Puncture Resistance Level 1

  Provides basic protection against punctures from blunt objects like splinters, not sharp points like needles.

• EN 420:2003+A1:2009

  Protective gloves with the EN 420:2003+A1:2009 rating are tested for general design, safe materials (innocuousness), water penetration, comfort, and dexterity. This ensures the gloves are safe, fit correctly, and allow you to perform tasks effectively without discomfort.

Examples of PPE Category 1 include gloves, goggles, and simple respirators. In Europe, PPE Category 1 must meet certain safety standards set by the European Union. This means that it must be designed and manufactured to protect the user without causing harm. Companies that make or sell PPE must prove that it meets these standards.
