  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.

  Burning Behaviour Level 4

  Provides the highest level of protection against catching fire when exposed to a naked flame. After the flame is removed, the material will stop burning within 2 seconds and stop glowing within 5 seconds.

  Molten Metal Resistance Level 4

  Offers the highest level of protection (Level 4) against large splashes of molten metal, like iron. Built for demanding industrial jobs such as foundry work, providing essential safety when exposed to significant molten material splashes.

  Radiant Heat Level 4

  Provides the highest level of protection against intense radiant heat, shielding hands for an extended time. Ideal for work near sources of extreme, non-contact heat like furnaces, foundries, and intense flames, offering maximum defense against heat rays.

  Heat Contact Level 2

  This product provides protection from contact heat up to 250°C for at least 15 seconds. It is ideal for tasks where you might briefly handle hot items, such as in kitchens or workshops.

  Heat Convection Level 4

  Provides the highest level of protection against convective heat, delaying the transfer of heat from a flame for over 18 seconds. This makes it suitable for handling hot objects for extended periods in professional environments.

• 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.

• PPE Category 3

  PPE stands for "personal protective equipment." PPE Category 3 refers to equipment that is complex and provide the highest level of protection such as powered respirators, SCBA, and full body suits. In Europe, PPE Category 3 must meet certain safety standards set by the European Union, which 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. They also must have a quality management system in place, have to be audited regularly by a notified body and have to have a technical documentation.
