Frequently asked questions
Can't find the answer you're looking for? Have a look at our FAQ page.What is the difference between ANSI and EN cut standards?
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) testing provides another way of measuring the cut perfomance of a glove. Testing differs from EN388 in the way in which testing is performed, and the performance levels do not exactly equate to each other. For example an EN388 cut level 3 may be an ANSI cut level 2.
Why don't you make the exact glove I need for my application?
We make gloves for environments not applications. Why? To make it easier for you to get the right glove for the job you do. MaxiFlex® is for precision handling work in dry environments; MaxiDry® is for precision handling work in oily and wet environments; MaxiCut® for work with a risk of cut; MaxiChem® for chemical exposure. In some cases, some more specialised applications may require an alternative product.
Why do some leather gloves contain Chromium?
Tanning is the process of treating skins and hides of animals to produce leather, which is more durable and less susceptible to decomposition. Once completed there can be chromium VI within the treated leather which has led to chromium VI being listed as a substance of very high concern (SVHC) within the European REACH legislation and limited to 3PPM within EN420.
Who are the Skin Health Alliance?
