Cut-resistant gloves are a type of personal protective equipment (PPE) specifically designed to protect hands from cuts or lacerations due to contact with various cutting machines, equipment, tools, or sharp-edged items such as knives, blades, metals, glass, or ceramics.

Appropriate hand protection is essential in order to ensure employees are safe guarded in the work place and to prevent injuries. The arms and hands are the body parts most affected by workplace injuries, representing 41% of all non-fatal work accidents

Industries that use safety gloves include;

• Automotive
• Aerospace
• Construction
• Food
• Logistics
• Manufacturing
• Oil and Gas
• Pharmaceutical
• Recycling

Our cut proof glove range varies from cut level A-F  (cut level 1-5 under the old EN388 standard).

The EN388 standard tests the 

1. abrasion, cut tear and puncture of a glove. 

The scores are rated from level 1-4, the higher the number the better the glove.

Cut resistance used to be rated from level 1-5 but now operates a letter system of cut level A-F, level F offering the highest level of cut protection. 

Cut-proof gloves are made of special composite materials in combination with stainless steel mesh, fibreglass, and synthetic high-performance yarns.
