Performance and Limitation of Use

  1. This product has been tested in accordance with EN ISO 374-5:2016.
    Protection against bacteria and fungus – Pass. Protection against viruses – Pass.

  2. Gloves had been tested in accordance with 16523-1:2015 resistance to permeation by chemicals and in accordance with  374-4:2013:
    EN ISO 374-1:2016+A1:2018 (Type B)| Level| EN 374-4:2013 Degradation, %
    ---|---|---
    J| n-Heptane| 3| 45.5
    K| 40% Sodium Hydroxide| 6| -26.2
    O| 25% Ammonium hydroxide| 1| 8.9
    T| 37% Formaldehyde| 4| -5.2
    P| 30% Hydrogen Peroxide| 4| 16.5

  3. This information does not reflect the actual duration of protection in the workplace and the differentiation between mixtures and pure chemicals.

  4. The chemical resistance has been assessed under laboratory conditions from samples taken from the palm only (except in cases where the glove is equal to or over 400mm – where the cuff is tested also) and relates only to the chemical tested. The result may differ if the chemical is used in a mixture.

  5. It is recommended to check that the gloves are suitable for the intended use because the conditions at the workplace may differ from the type test depending on temperature, abrasion and degradation.

  6. When used, protective gloves may provide less resistance to the dangerous chemical due to changes in physical properties. Movements, snagging, rubbing, degradation caused by the chemical contact etc. may reduce the actual use time significantly. For corrosive chemicals, degradation can be the most important factor to consider in selection of chemical resistant gloves.
    Before usage, inspect the gloves for any defect or imperfections.
    374-4:2013 Degradation levels indicate the change in puncture resistance of the gloves after exposure to the challenge chemicals.

  7. This product provides protection against Bacteria, Fungi and Virus. The gloves had been tested in accordance with ISO 16604:2004 (the test method is uses Phi-X174 bacteriophages) to meet the requirements of BS EN ISO 374-5:2016 for resistance to penetration by blood-borne pathogens. The penetration resistance has been assessed under laboratory conditions and relates only to the tested specimen.

  8. Components used in glove manufacturing may cause allergic reactions in some users. If allergic reactions occur, seek for medical advice immediately.
