Hand Protection

Hand Protection Technology

Engineered Hand Protection for Industrial Work

Choosing the right glove starts with understanding the materials, coatings, grip finishes, gauges, and safety standards behind each product. Our hand protection line is built to support demanding work environments where safety, comfort, and performance matter.

Safety Standards

Certified Protection Starts with the Right Rating

EN 388 helps evaluate mechanical risks such as abrasion, cut, tear, puncture, ISO cut resistance, and impact performance. EN 407 supports glove selection for heat, flame, contact heat, radiant heat, and molten metal splash hazards.

Cut Resistance

Understanding ANSI Cut Levels

ANSI cut levels help identify the amount of force required to cut through glove material. Lower levels are used for light-duty handling, while higher levels are designed for sharper materials, metal fabrication, glass handling, and high-risk industrial work.
