Protection Ratings for Polyco Dry Handling Warehouse Gloves
EN 388EN 388 is a European regulation governing the sale of gloves used for safety and protection. It determines the gloves' performance when used for protection against mechanical machinery by measuring the fabric's abrasion, cut, tear and puncture resistance.
The EN 388 cut resistance test uses a single sharp implement to repeatedly pressure a glove in order to determine the amount of force required to cause visible and functional damage.
Standard | Resistance Rating |
Abrasion Resistance | Level 2 |
Cut Resistance | Level 1 |
Tear Resistance | Level 2 |
Puncture Resistance | Level 2 |
ISO Cut Resistance | N/A |

Inexpensive and Affordable Design
When you work in a warehouse, outfitting a large number of employees can get expensive. Polyco Grip It Dry Handling and Warehouse Gloves are designed as an inexpensive solution to outfitting an entire workforce.
Why Are the 889 Grip Gloves Ideal for Handling?
Polyco Grip it Gloves combine excellent grip and dexterity with a latex coating that makes them ideal for handling tasks. While the impressive grip ensures that you won't drop items, the sensitivity gives you better control therefore improving productivity by reducing mistakes.
How Comfortable Are Polyco Grip It Dry Gloves?
Grip It Gloves are breathable to reduce discomfort over an extended shift, while their seamless liner ensures comfort at all times. This means that your hands aren't working against the gloves, as the fabric is already anatomically designed to the natural movement of your hands. This makes these gloves well suited to repetitive tasks that can pose a strain on the hands.
Do Grip It Dry Polyco Gloves Protect the Wrist?
These gloves actually feature an extended wrist. If you work with cardboard or boxes, then the edges can scratch the upper part of your wrists. These gloves use an extended knitwrist that is designed to prevent this, ensuring that you can work freely without having to worry about sustaining minor injuries.
What Are the Benefits of a Latex Coating?
Latex is an incredibly durable, cost-efficient coating. Because of its widespread use and subsequently inexpensive nature, gloves manufactured with it are inexpensive whilst remaining high quality. Latex coated gloves tend to have a higher puncture and tear resistance than their nitrile counterparts.
Breathable Seamless Liner
Breathability is massive for gloves designed to be worn all day. Working in a packing department or warehouse can be gruelling if your gloves don't allow air to flow through the fabric.
Polyco Dry Handling Gloves use a thin and breathable liner to allow odour and smell to exit the glove naturally. This prevents irritation, blotching and redness and the onset of other nasty dermatological conditions.

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.
