Polyco Grip It Oil Therm Hi-Vis Waterproof Thermal Winter Gloves GIOTH

Staying visible on rainy and dark days on site where grip strength and stability are compromised by rain and damp can seem impossible. Polyco Grip It Oil Therm Hi-Vis Waterproof Thermal Winter Gloves GIOTH utilise twin nitrile coatings at the palm to enhance and stabilise grip strength which in turn prevents accidents, drops and slippage when conditions get tough.

Manufactured with a soft and plush thermal lining, Polyco Waterproof GIOTH Winter Gloves are the obvious choice for manual handling both in the warehouse and out on site this winter.

What's Included?

• 1 x Pair of Thermal Gloves

Which Size Polyco Grip It Oil Thermal Gloves Are Right for Me?

Safety Gloves are available in four different sizes. To find the perfect one for you, simply measure the circumference of your palm (ignoring the thumb area) and the length of your hand as indicated in the image below.

Once you have your measurements, please consult the sizing chart below to find the correct size for your hand.

Protection Ratings and Safety Standards

EN 511

• EN 511: X30

EN 511 is the European regulation governing cold-resistant garments and gloves. This regulation uses a number of intricate and complex tests to assess the contact cold, convective cold and water permeability of a fabric. Please view the table below to see how these gloves performed:

EN 388

• EN 388: 4222X

EN 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.

What Are the Benefits of a Nitrile Coating?

Nitrile is an incredibly flexible coating that provides great resistance in the face of oil, fuel and certain chemicals. Nitrile is used as a protective coating in gloves because it matches the pliability of latex with the protective properties of a heavier, more expensive woven glove.

Dual Coating Layers Enhance Protection

Two layers are almost always better than one. Polyco GIOTH Thermal Gloves utilise twin layers of nitrile; one base layer to reinforce the fabric and provide a waterproof barrier and a second, more robust micro-foam layer to absorb tiny liquid droplets that can linger on the glove face, causing issues with grip stability and strength. 

Micro-Foam Grip Enhancement

This flexible second layer is made with highly sensitised micro-foam which works tirelessly to absorb tiny particles of oil, grease and other microscopic droplets that can cause slippages and droppages. Micro-foam is an excellent way of minimising risk to individuals and profits, as slips and drops can cause both harm to the user and damage to stock.

Winter-Proof Fleece Lining

Maintaing a strong grip in winter without the proper gloves can seem impossible due to cold temperatures and the dampness and condensation that accompanies it. Polyco GIOTH Thermal Gloves use a robust and warm winter fleece lining to not only prevent the cold getting in, but stop the valuable heat your body generates whilst you work getting out.

SilverClear Hygiene System

If you are frequently touching material and then making contact with your face, you're putting yourself and others at risk. Germs and virus can linger on almost anything, putting handling professionals at an increased risk.

The patented SilverClear hygiene treatment system was designed by Polyco in conjunction with industry experts in response to the global covid-19 pandemic. SilverClear treatment protects glove fabric from microbial growth, ensuring pathogens, bacteria and germs cannot linger on the glove fabric.

High Visibility Design

Visibility is a must on site, for health and safety reasons and for preserving the condition of valuable stock, cargo and material that gets handled in shipping and docking yards. Their luminous yellow design sets Polyco Thermal GIOTH Gloves apart from the rest, ensuring you stay safe and seen in even the darkest corners when the sun sets on site this winter.

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.

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.
