Frequently asked questions
Can't find the answer you're looking for? Have a look at our FAQ page.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.
Is MaxiDry® liquidproof?
MaxiDry®'s coating is designed to resist and repell liquids and oils. It is not designed to be chemical resistant; for use with chemicals we recommend MaxiChem®.
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 can't you make a glove to use with all chemicals?
There are thousands of different chemicals on the market and even more mixtures. As every chemicals brings its own characteristics and react differently with glove materials there is nothing such as a "one for all" chemical resistant glove on the market. The most common material used as a chemical resistant glove is - Nitrile. This material offers good resistance versus oils, acids, hydroxides and alcanes. To choose the right glove for your environment please contact your supplier or ATG® Sales member.
