Protection Ratings and Standards

EN 388

• EN 388: 214XX

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.

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.

PVC Dotted Palm and Fingertips

A PVC dotted palm enhances the user's grip and handling stability as the tiny dots actively work to grip and stick to the material you're handling. This means boxes, products, material and tools stay firmly in the palm of your hand where they belong.

Ideal for Handling and Packaging Application

Polyco understand that in environments where you're picking, packing and handling all day long, your hands not only get tired, but your gloves begin to wear down. A PVC dotted palm is the ideal solution as it adds another layer to the glove, preventing items from slipping out of your hands.

Close Fit for Maximum Dexterity

Despite providing strong protection against abrasions and tearing, Polyco D Grip Gloves remain close knitted, meaning excess fabric and material don't compromise on dexterity and handling accuracy. Your fingertips still retain a large amount of their natural touch and purchase when wearing D Grip Gloves, allowing you to handling intricate parts with ease and protection.

Elasticated Knit Wrist Design

An elasticated wrist not only supports the wrist and ensures that fatigue and tiredness don't set in prematurely. It prevents dirt, debris and dust entering the glove at the wrist.

This guards against irritation, discomfort and dermatological issues that can be caused by a reaction to dust and dirt.

Thick Fingertips Maximise Protection

Despite their inexpensive price tag and as demonstrated in the picture below, Matrix D Grip Gloves do not compromise on the amount of fabric they use at the fingertips. This is in order to minimise fatigue, tiredness and loss of function during long ships packing, picking and handling.

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.
