Cut protection gloves Cut Safe | PU coating
Cut protection gloves Cut Safe with PU coating from Hygostar Cut Safe cut-resistant gloves are among Franz Mensch's most popular work gloves. The combination of cut protection, abrasion resistance and a high degree of sensitivity is ideal for various activities in the metal and glass industries, automotive manufacturing or handling electronic equipment. They are particularly versatile all-round gloves that offer solid, reliable quality and are comfortable to wear every day. The Cut Safe cut protection gloves are approved as PPE, bear the CE mark and are cut-proof according to the EN 388 standard. The carrier material consists of a nylon fine knit, which is very dense and high quality. Nylon is air-permeable and elastic, which is why the work gloves follow all hand movements - perfect when precision and concentration are required. Incorporated glass fibers make the gloves cut-resistant and ensure your safety during work. For the necessary grip and more durability, the palm and fingertips are coated with PU. This is also referred to as a 1/4 coating. The PU reinforces the cut protection gloves and makes them particularly robust against mechanical stress. The features of Cut Safe cut resistant gloves cut resistant according to EN 388 (cut protection level D) made of nylon fine knit and glass fibers dense knitting robust PU coating on palm and fingertips very abrasion resistant safe dry handle very good fit for precise work air permeable back of the hand popular, versatile protective glove for medium risks in mechanical and industrial work with sharp objects tested for heat protection, light protection Standards info: Cut protection according to EN 388 Whether a glove offers protection against injuries is determined on the basis of EN 388. The standard provides for various tests on cut resistance, abrasion resistance, etc. New materials and high-performance fibers made it necessary to adapt the cut protection test a few years ago. In addition to the previous Coupe test, which is used especially for gloves made of high-tech fibers, there is now another test: the TDM cut resistance test according to EN ISO 13997, or ISO test for short. The ISO test applies primarily to cut-resistant gloves containing steel or glass fibers. The Coupe test uses a circular blade that rotates several times over the test glove. The result is a cut protection level from 1 to 5, where 5 corresponds to the best grade. The ISO test, on the other hand, is performed with a sharp blade. It is pressed once on the test glove to measure how much force cuts through the glove. The result is given in grades A to F. F has the best protective effect.

Respirators FFP2 NR, vertically foldable | PP
Respirators FFP2 NR, vertical foldable made of PP FFP2 NR respirators are made of high quality breathable PP fleece. They meet the FFP2 performance level and thus protect against solid and liquid harmful dusts, smoke and aerosols. The FFP2 masks are versatile and reduce the absorption and transmission of infectious agents. The protective masks are particularly suitable for employees in medicine, laboratory, nursing, hospital as protective equipment, industry, food industry and hygiene-sensitive areas. The FFP2 protective masks are folded vertically, providing a large breathing surface for easier inhalation and exhalation. At the same time, folded respirators are a cheaper alternative to preformed cups because they are easier to manufacture. Thanks to the moldable nose clip, the disposable masks seal well and fit tightly to the face. The elastic, latex-free headgear does not pinch behind the ears and is very comfortable over a long period of time. Advantages of the respirators FFP2 NR, vertical foldable at a glance: vertically folded, large breathing surface latex-free headband, no pressure behind the ears very comfortable even when worn for long periods breathable, high quality PP fleece malleable nose clip for tight fit and good seal reliable filter performance of level FFP2 protection against solid and liquid harmful dusts, smoke and aerosols individually packed in a hygienic bag pharmacy central number (PZN) 1 piece: 17162089 pharmacy central number (PZN) 10 pieces: 17161279 What you should know about respirators When it comes to respirators, all guideline values and minimum requirements are defined in EN149:2001 + A1:2009. The filter classes FFP1, FFP2 and FFP3 are also precisely defined there. Read the most important facts about the so-called filtering half masks here. Respirators (also called fine dust masks) that comply with EN 149 are suitable for use with liquid and solid aerosols and protect the wearer from these health hazards. They are part of the PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) and are required by law in many industrial work areas. Respirators are divided into three protection classes: FFP1, FFP2 and FFP3. The protection classes are based on the so-called MAK value: The value corresponds to the concentration at the workplace to which an employee can be exposed without suffering an adverse health effect. FFP1 = small particle quantities; FFP2 = medium particle quantities; FFP3 = large particle quantities. The abbreviation FFP stands for Filtering Face Piece. In accordance with legal requirements, the protective masks are tested with sodium chloride (solid aerosols) and with kerosene oil (liquid aerosols). Depending on the filter class, respirators protect against many times the MAK limit value (VdGW). Filter class FFP1 up to 4 times MAK, application: protection against coarse, health-endangering dry particles and aerosols; e.g. wood grinding dust, quartz dust, coarser allergens, pollen, etc. Filter class FFP2 up to 10 times MAK, application: protection against dry particles and aerosols hazardous to health; e.g. metal dusts, mineral fiber dusts, polishing dusts, construction site dusts, etc. Filter class FFP3 up to 30 times MAK, application: protection against very fine, health hazardous dry particles and aerosols e.g. chemical industry, bacteria, viruses, simple radioactive dusts etc. Why respirators with valve? FFP masks are also available as a variant with an exhalation valve. This makes breathing noticeably easier and more pleasant. A valve improves ventilation in the mask, lowers the temperature and ensures that less moisture forms in the mask. Protective masks with a valve are therefore more comfortable and more kind to the skin. However, they can only be used for self-protection (PPE), because possible germs of the wearer can be released to the outside world via valve. This means that if the focus is on protection against infection, respirators without a valve should be used. FFP masks without a valve offer both external protection and self-protection. What does the "NR" mean for protective masks? NR stands for "Not reusable" and states that it is a disposable mask, which is intended for single use.

Specialties for industry & crafts


Industrial cleaning cloths & cleaning papers

Especially when working in the field of industry and crafts, there are many activities with which dirt is associated. Be it in car repair shops, handicraft businesses such as carpentry or in the construction industry. In order to roughly clean the dirt from tools, equipment, machines and surfaces, it is advisable to use industrial wipes or cleaning papers. Both are highly absorbent cleaning materials that quickly wipe away oil, dust or even lubricants. Franz Mensch offers a range of industrial cloths  and cleaning papers produced precisely for such purposes.
The wipes differ in their properties, intended uses and materials. Learn here which material is the right one for your application.



Disposable Overshoes

In manufacturing industries, a certain level of hygiene is very important so that the products are not contaminated. Often, however, there is a lot of throughput of employees or even visitors, which means that dirt finds its way into the production halls by itself. To prevent dirt from outside from getting inside, it is advisable to put on disposable overshoes in the production areas.

The overshoes can be easily worn over normal street shoes and are quick to put on and take off. Some overshoes have slip-resistant soles for areas with slippery floors. For protection that extends over the ankles, we also offer overboots. For easier donning of overshoes, there are also overshoe dispenser. Some of these are easy to operate manually or electronically and make putting on disposable overshoes much easier.
