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.
Is MaxiChem® cut resistant?
MaxiChem® Cut™ delivers all the features and benefits of MaxiChem® with the added benefit of EN388:2016 cut level 3B protection.
Why do the number of abrasion cycles a glove can handle matter?
Abrasion resistance is measured from level 1-4 (EN388), but within those levels, performance can vary. For example, level 4 abrasion resistance requires a glove to withstand a minimum of 8000 cycles, but MaxiFlex achieves up to twice as many abrasion cycles. MaxiFlex® therefore far exceeds the minimum performance requirements of level 4 abrasion resistance and would be considered more durable than a product only just achieveing level 4.
Why do I have to buy through an intermediary?
Our sales partners are the ones that do the importation of our products to ensure proximity and presence of our gloves as and when you need them.
