Frequently asked questions
Can't find the answer you're looking for? Have a look at our FAQ page.What is DURAtech®?
DURAtech® is a technology platform that makes gloves last longer. Why? Because long lasting gloves simply makes good economic sense but it’s not all about the durability. It’s also about making sure your gloves are fresh and clean so we’ve designed our gloves so they can be laundered. That way you’re able to make full use of the outstanding durability offered.
What does 18 gauge mean? What gauge are your gloves and does this matter to me?
Gauge refers to the knitting process and resultant characteristics of the glove liner. Typically the higher the gauge number, the more dense the fabric, but the fabric is also typically thinner. This means 18 gauge gloves would typically be thinner, with a denser liner than a 15 gauge glove. However, there are a number of other features and benefits apart from gauge that are helpful in choosing a glove.
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.
What do you mean by 360 degree breathability?
It means our gloves breath on both the coated and knitted areas. Our 360 degree breathability is delivered by our AIRtech® technology platform. In products where this technology is used, because both the liner and the micro-foam nitrile coating are breathable, this means the glove is fully breathable and therefore your hand can breathe through 360 degrees.
