with the right hand and arm

challenges to health and safety in
the workplace.

performance and protective
qualities of its gloves against
more than 140 common
chemicals,making the task a lot
easier.

provides a simple way to
selecting the right glove (and
material) against a wide range of
common workplace chemicals. It
gives key breakthrough time
(BTT) information delivered in
colour coded levels,
ranging from level 1 –
less than 10 minutes
protection – to level 6 –
offering over 480 minutes

disposable gloves, which
have been tested against almost
