Protection Ratings and Specification Information

EN 388

• EN 388: 3121X

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.

Polyurethane Coating Benefits

Polyurethane is an incredibly flexible coating that preserves dexterity and accuracy in the fingers. A polyurethane coating has a lightweight feel to it that moulds the glove to the natural contour of your hand, maximising precision and dexterity in the fingertips to ensure you can perform intricate and difficult tactile based tasks with ease.

Palm Only Coating 

A palm only coating means polyurethane only covers the palm and fingers, leaving the back of the glove exposed to allow air and odour to exit the glove naturally. This style of coating protects the most vulnerable parts of the hand without weighing the wrist and the rest of the hand down with unnecessary and excess material.

Breathability Maximised

As mentioned above, breathability is vitally important for workers using gloves all day, especially in the hotter months because odour and sweat build up quickly when you work hard, creating itchy and irritable hands. Polyco GH100 Gloves use an open back design to allow odour to exit naturally, promoting a healthy level of airflow that minimises the risk of dermatitis and eczema developing on your hands.

Perfect for Use As a Glove Liner

Thanks to their minimalistic and refined design, Polyco GH100 Safety Gloves are excellent for use as under-gloves. Liners are an excellent choice in colder weather and for individuals who require specialist protection as a top layer.

Simply apply your Polyco GH100 Gloves and throw a more protective pairs on top to double down on heat retention and protection.

Flexible and Durable Elasticated Knit Wrist

An elasticated knit wrist reduces fatigue and stress in the wrist. Unlike other stiffer designs, an elasticated cuff moves naturally with you as you work, minimising strain and providing a comfortable base for your wrist.

A knit wrist cuff also prevents dirt, debris, dust and other nasty airborne particles entering your gloves whilst you work. This is great for when you're sanding down, using machinery that generates a lot of dust, and cleaning up after a long day.

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.
