Frequently asked questions

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.
What are the dots for on MaxiFlex® Endurance™?
The micro-dots help provide extra cushioning for repetitive tasks, enabling you to work for longer while enjoying high levels of comfort.
Is MaxiFlex® cut resistant?
MaxiFlex® Cut™ affords EN388 cut level 3 in addition to delivering all the features and benefits of MaxiFlex®.
How is the durability of MaxiFlex®?
MaxiFlex® is exceptionally durable, and has achieved up to 18000 cycles in testing, twice the figure MaxiFlex® colour copies typically achieve. All of this means that MaxiFlex® will last longer and help to reduce your glove costs.
These are the first gloves I have ever used where I can literally still type on a computer. They do need to be worn in, but once they are, you will never buy another kind of glove for this purpose again. Hardly a winter or water glove though.
I love your gloves. They're really great work gloves.
