Applications for the honeywell CHAINEXPERT Butchers Glove With Sleeve

The Honeywell ChainExpert Butchers Glove With Sleeve is suitable for use within the food processing industry, they are of particular benefit when dealing with knives, cutting or punching tools. The gloves are also suitable for a wider range of activities which involves the use of cutting tools although please check with us before proceeding with any activity outside of food processing. The glove can be used in the following areas:

• Food Industries.
• Meat & Poultry Processing. 
• Butchery.
• Oyster Shucking. 

Unlike the standard Chainmail Glove, this glove arrives with a sleeve offering the user increased protection for the arm and shoulder area. With an emphasis on protection and durability the chainmesh of this glove significantly reduces the number of repairs compared with what is generally recorded on the market. 

Butchery

When working within the Meat & Poultry Processing industry it is paramount that you place your safety first. Unlike many other industries this increased safety concern can include the use of a wider set of PPE including an arm sleeve to protect your arm and shoulder. Cuts and stabs are consistent problems within this industry so having in place a sleeve to protect the arm not wielding the cutting tool can prove life changing. 

The importance therefore of having in place gloves which can offer serious protection to cuts and stabs can not be undervalued, many businesses opt to use gloves which offer a limited cut resistance although this decision can have consequences. If you are in doubt about the best range of gloves for your business why not contact us and see if we can assist you. Please only use our information as a guide to how best protect someone working within the meat & processing industry, the information provided should not be used as a business policy.

What is EN 388?

You might have noticed that this product adheres to EN standard EN 388. EN standards ensure that the product you are buying meets the safety standards of the European Committee for Standardization (CEN), the highest standards organisation recognised by and working on behalf of the European Union. To pass any EN standard, a PPE product must undergo some of the most rigorous safety tests around.

There are many EN standards that our gloves adhere to. However, the EN standard that we’re concerned about here is EN 388. EN 388 stands for Mechanical Resistance, and informs you of your gloves' resistance to abrasion, cuts, tears and punctures.

How Do I Read the EN 388 Score?

Simply speaking, the higher the score that this product achieves, the better the product will be at resisting that hazard. Products will score between Level 0 and Level 4 for abrasion, tears and punctures, and if they weren’t tested for that hazard you will see N/A written instead of a number.

Cuts are a little different and, with the EN 388 standard rewritten in 2016, it means that gloves will either be tested to cut resistance or ISO cut resistance (sometimes called TDM cut resistance). Gloves tested to cut resistance will score between Level 0 and Level 5, and gloves tested to ISO cut resistance will achieve a score between Level A and Level F with the higher letter offering better cut protection.

Where Can I Find Out More?

This is just a brief overview of EN standard EN 388 so you know where you are standing. For further information, you can see the Introductory EN 388 Blog in our Knowledge Centre.
