Colour-coded glove system
16 August 2013
A new Cut Control System developed by Arco for its glove range makes it possible to see instantly what level of cut protection is being worn.

Gloves are colour-coded to illustrate different levels of cut protection and numbered for ease of use and efficiency. The colour-coding also gives a clear visual signal for surrounding workers and safety inspectors.
Arco’s Cut Control System gloves have been tested and approved to meet the European standard for protective gloves against mechanical risks (EN 388:2003) and will protect against punctures, tears, cuts and abrasion.
Cut resistant threads have been blended together to provide high levels of protection and abrasion resistance, while remaining comfortable for extended wear. Different coatings can be selected based on the particular working environment.
