Mechanical Information
Working with temperatures this low can cause serious damage to your hands and arms, so you'll want to know that you can trust what these gloves say. In order to do that, these gloves have been tested to EN standards EN 388 and EN 511, measuring their resistance to mechanical threats and the cold. They achieved the following scores:
EN 388
| Hazard | Level of Resistance |
| Abrasion Resistance | Level 2 |
| Cut Resistance | Level 2 |
| Tear Resistance | Level 4 |
| Puncture Resistance | Level 3 |
EN 511
| Hazard | Level of Resistance |
| Contact Cold | Level 2 |
| Convective Cold | Level 2 |
| Water Permeability | Level 0 |
Key Features
- Suitable for handling items that reach as low as -170°C
- Features two aluminium layers for your best protection
- Water-resistant silicone grain leather for damp items
- Reinforcement between the thumb and index for handling
- Velcro adjustment for superb comfort and fit
- Winged thumb offer a good level of dexterity
How Dexterous Are the Honeywell Cryogenic Gloves?
Handling extremely cold materials demands dexterity, which can be difficult as some gloves can stiffen in colder temperatures. The Honeywell Cryogenic Gloves feature a double aluminium lining that reduces this stiffening, while a winged thumb offers the level of dexterity needed to handle tricky items such as stored vaccines.
How Comfortable Are the Cryogenic Gauntlet Gloves?
Working in high cold risk environments demands a level of comfort, as discomfort can lead to more mistakes being made. The Honeywell Cryogenic Gloves include a Velcro adjustment strap for a secure fit, while the polar interior and winged thumb offers an excellent level of flexibility and comfort. You can use these gloves for extended periods without developing hand fatigue.

What is EN 511?
You might have noticed that this product adheres to EN standard EN 511. 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 511. EN 511 stands for all things cold, and means that your gloves have been tested for their convective cold resistance, contact cold resistance and water permeability properties.
How Do I Read the EN 511 Score?
Simply speaking, the higher the score achieved the better the product will be at resisting the hazard tested. For the first two tests (convective cold resistance and contact cold resistance), the product will achieve between a Level 0 and a Level 4. The higher the score the better the resistance, with a Level 0 score meaning that it failed and an N/A score meaning that the product wasn’t tested for this hazard.
For water permeability the product will achieve either a Level 0 or a Level 1. Level 1 means that the product is waterproof, and Level 0 means that it isn't.
Where Can I Find Out More?
This is just a brief overview of EN standard EN 511 so you know where you are standing. For further information, you can see the Introductory EN 511 Blog in our Knowledge Centre.
