GRIPS WELL
September 1st 2005

In response to the growing number of hand-related Lost Time Incidents, Kimberly-Clark Professional has introduced a general purpose glove that provides a high level of grip both when wet and dry.

Kleenguard Purple Nitrile foam coated gloves have a seamless knitted nylon back for comfort.

Although not intended as primary protection against liquid chemicals, they offer protection against nonacidic liquids in the palm and help to ensure hands remain dry when performing wet tasks.

The gloves are intended for tasks that require a combination of dexterity and grip, such as light assembly, handling of finished products and production of small components. They have a score of 4 in the EU abrasion rating scale.
