Standards

• EN 388:2016

  Gloves and arm protectors with the EN 388 rating are tested for protection against mechanical risks like abrasion, cuts, tears, punctures, and sometimes impact. This helps you choose protective gear with the right level of durability and safety for tasks that involve these hazards.

  Test results

  • Abrasion Resistance Level 4

    Offers the highest level of protection against intense rubbing and wear from rough materials.

  • Cut Resistance, Coup Test Level 1

    Provides minimal protection against cuts from a rotating blade under constant, low force.

  • Cut Resistance, ISO 13997 Level A

    Protects against low cut risks with minimal force, suitable for general purpose handling.

  • Puncture Resistance Level 1

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

  • Tear Resistance Level 3

    Offers strong resistance against ripping, making the material durable against snags and tears.

• EN 407:2004

  Gloves and other hand protection with the EN 407 rating are tested for protection against heat and/or fire, including flame, contact heat, and molten metal splashes. This helps you choose products that offer a specific level of defense against various thermal hazards, ensuring your hands stay safe.

  Test results

  • Burning Behaviour Level X

    This product has not been tested for its performance when exposed to an open flame. It is not rated for fire resistance and should not be used for protection against direct contact with flames.

  • Heat Contact Level 1

    Provides protection when briefly touching hot objects. Certified for contact with surfaces up to 100°C for at least 15 seconds, offering short-term protection against burns from items like hot cookware or machinery parts.

  • Heat Convection Level X

    This product was not tested for protection against convective heat, which is the transfer of heat through moving air, such as from a flame. Therefore, it has no claimed performance level for this specific thermal risk.

  • Metal Splash Resistance Level X

    This product has not been tested for resistance against splashes of molten metal under the EN 407 standard. It does not offer rated protection for tasks where this is a risk, such as welding.

  • Molten Metal Resistance Level X

    This product has not been tested for resistance against splashes of molten metal. It provides no claimed protection and should not be used for welding, foundry work, or other tasks with molten metal risks.

  • Radiant Heat Level X

    This product was not tested for protection against radiant heat, which is intense heat that can be felt from a distance. It does not claim to offer protection for tasks involving prolonged exposure to radiant heat sources.

• EN ISO 21420:2020

  Protective gloves, arm protectors, mittens, and pot holders with the EN ISO 21420 rating are tested for general requirements like design, comfort, sizing, and chemical innocuousness (ensuring no harmful substances are present). This means the product is safe and comfortable to wear, fits properly, and won't cause skin irritation or other harm during use.

Labels

• Dermatologically Tested
