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.

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.

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.

What is viscose?
Unlike polyester or PP, the starting material for viscose is of vegetable nature. Viscose is made from cellulose, which is obtained from wood. In a chemical process, the cellulose is processed into fibers and thus counts as a semi-synthetic material. The great advantage of viscose: It is able to absorb and temporarily store moisture to a very high degree - for fast and thorough cleaning results.
Besides, viscose has textile character and is particularly soft. These properties also make viscose a popular material for garments. Clothing made of viscose convinces with a very pleasant body climate and its breathability. Viscose is also very suitable as a material for cleaning cloths, because viscose cloths clean particularly effectively and thoroughly thanks to their enormous absorbency.
