| ATG Gloves: Technologies Explained13 September 2024 ATG are known for delivering reliable, top-quality hand protection, but where they really excel is with their development of cutting-edge technologies, each of which are crafted to enhance the effectiveness, comfort and performance of your gloves. Designed to meet the demands of several industries and safety requirements, these gloves have rapidly become a top choice for professionals nationally.
To help you make more informed decisions when purchasing gloves for you and your workforce, we've broken down each technology for you, with details on their properties and why they'd be of benefit to you! What Does This Guide Cover?
What Are ATG's Core Objectives?With a strong focus on improving the overall user experience with their gloves, ATG have cleverly developed and delivered a series of state-of-the-art glove technologies. Their three main objectives are to enhance the following:
For many of us, choosing the right pair of gloves can be difficult - especially when there are so many types to choose from! Our guide provides a detailed, straightforward breakdown of each technology and their properties, ensuring you make the best choice for your specific industry and requirements. Technologies to Maximise Your ComfortTo ensure you can work comfortably and efficiently in any environment, ATG have created advanced technologies which prioritise user comfort. These are as follows: AIRtech:
A common complaint of frequent safety glove wearers is the build up of heat inside gloves when completing tasks. Designed to prevent this from happening, ATG came up with AIRtech. It's designed in the form of a patented, micro-foam nitrile coating, crafted with tiny bubbles that create several micro-tunnels in which heat can naturally escape. This design allows for what is referred to as 360° breathability, where air can circulate freely across the whole hand to keep them cool and comfortable. A word from ATG: "Our customers have told us that there is nothing like it on the market today." Here at SafetyGloves.co.uk, we have several gloves that are constructed using the AIRtech technology. See below to explore our ATG AIRtech gloves.
TRItech:
For those working in laboratories, the cleaning industry and frequently with chemicals, it's vital to have gloves that offer good chemical resistance without compromising on comfort. Due to the demand for comfortable chemical-resistant gloves, ATG carefully curated TRItech. TRItech is made using a three-layer composite which is both strong and flexible, allowing you a full range of movement and agility while completing higher risk tasks. A word from ATG: "More comfort, more performance, better protection." Take a look at the pair of gloves below to see the TRItech in action!
ERGOtech:
When completing activities that require the full use of your hands over extended periods, fatigue is never too far away. To ensure your hands remain energised and agile, ATG created ERGOtech. The compounds used to create this technology are crafted to match the movement, form and fit of your hands as closely as possible. This innovative, life-like technology ensures you can complete tasks that require dexterity, flexibility and tactile sensitivity without the risk of your hands becoming fatigued, boosting both your comfort and performance. A word from ATG: "ERGOtech focuses on making the glove work like a second skin." Here at SafetyGloves.co.uk, we have a selection of gloves that were crafted using ERGOtech. Take a look at a few examples below.
AD-APT:
ATG's research shows that our hands carry 83% more sweat glands per square centimetre than the rest of our bodies! AD-APT was created as a temperature-regulating solution for those who frequently wear safety gloves, and cleverly self-activates as soon as it detects movement or increased temperature in the hands. As you complete various activities and begin to build up sweat, the AD-APT technology releases a natural, cooling agent to keep your hands at a comfortable temperature. This means that no matter how laborious the task or how warm it is outside, you can continue to work comfortably. Explore our selection of ATG gloves with the AD-APT technology below.
Technologies to Enhance Your PerformanceThe next set of ATG's technologies are developed to ensure you reach your maximum potential, no matter the industry or task at hand. These technologies are as follows: CUTtech:
CUTtech is a result of high-performance fibres and yarns twisted and plaited into lightweight and flexible compounds. When applied to safety gloves, not only do these gloves deliver a spectrum of cut-resistant protection needed, they offer the comfort and moveability needed to complete more dangerous tasks. ATG have recently updated their range of CUTtech gloves by including nitrile reinforcements between the forefinger and thumb. Placing this in the area most prone to damage, this addition ensures your gloves remain functional and allow you to handle sharps with confidence. A word from ATG: "They are engineered to perform." Have a look at the gloves to explore our ATG gloves with CUTtech.
DURAtech:
It's no use having a pair of gloves that won't last, and ATG's recognition of this birthed DURAtech. Designed to withstand frequent use without becoming damaged and ineffective, gloves with DURAtech are an economical and reliable option for a number of tasks. Gloves with this technology can also be laundered, ensuring they're kept clean so wearers can feel the full effects of their durability! A word from ATG: "DURAtech is a technology platform that makes gloves last longer." Explore our selection of ATG gloves that have DURAtech technology below.
GRIPtech:
The success of a task and safety of those completing it often lies in having a good grip of whatever objects are being handled. To minimise the risk of slips, enhance dexterity and reduce hand fatigue, ATG crafted GRIPtech, which has a "micro-cup" finish that enhances your grip and control in dry and/or oily environments. This technology is often used with gloves that also feature CUTtech, highlighting how having a strong grip can help to reduce the risk of cuts and injuries when handling sharps and other dangerous components. A word from ATG: "At ATG we view grip as a key safety criteria." We have a selection of gloves that feature the GRIPtech platform, which you can view below.
LIQUItech:
Protecting you against oils, liquids and chemicals, the industry-leading LIQUItech technology is perfect for a range of sectors, from engineering and construction to laboratory and oil/gas work. ATG's unique technology combines a flexible, lightweight coating with seamless knit liners that provides liquid repellence and a spectrum of chemical resistance. Despite primarily being designed for your safety, gloves with the LIQUItech coating prioritise your comfort in ways that many chemical- and liquid-repellent gloves may not, making them a top choice across industries. A word from ATG: "The LIQUItech barrier has been designed to safeguard you." Explore our range of ATG gloves with LIQUItech below.
THERMtech:
It can be difficult to find thermal protection gloves that aren't too bulky and don't hinder your flexibility and dexterity. Crafted with a seamless knit coating, ATG's THERMtech technology delivers the insulation and/or heat resistance needed in hot and cold temperatures without impacting the function and performance of your gloves. Whether handling extremely hot objects or working outdoors when the temperature drops, gloves with the THERMtech coating ensure tasks can be completed with optimal levels of efficiency and with a lessened risk of discomfort or injury. The gloves below are our customer's top choice for THERMtech gloves, and are also available in a case of 72 pairs to ensure you and your workforce remain safe against thermal hazards.
ViroSan:
In healthcare, food production, and other environments where hygiene is critical, it's crucial to have hand protection that safeguards you without compromising on cleanliness. The ViroSan barrier was created as a direct response to this need, designed to prevent viruses from depositing on your gloves and being spread around sensitive areas. For ultimate reliability, they've been successfully tested against NL63, one of the human COVID strains. This means that any gloves with the ViroSan coating is safe for use around those more vulnerable to respiratory conditions. A word from ATG: "ViroSan provides enhanced glove hygiene for your hands to work in." Our MaxiDex Anti-Viral Disposable G;loves are an excellent choice for professionals working in industries where hygiene is vital. Check them out below!
