Comfortable gloves

07 February 2017

Arco has designed a new range of gloves which prioritise wearer comfort and satisfaction through ergonomic design and elasticated fabric properties.

The range features a selection of gloves suitable for a variety of applications, which have been manufactured from the thinnest, most lightweight yarns. All gloves in the range offer the high level of abrasion resistance, providing improved grip for the wearer, a fluid repellent liner treatment that ensures worker’s hands are kept dry. Spandex has also been used within the design to ensure a better fit and allow worker’s hands the freedom to move. The range includes:

  • Arco Comfort Light Grip Foam: Suitable for applications such as assembly work, general maintenance, goods picking and packing, this gloves features a foam nitrile coating with nitrile dots for increased grip and durability.
  • Arco Comfort Light Foam: Designed to provide exceptional grip for workers in oily environments. Other features include the foam nitrile coating, which is breathable and keeps the wearer’s hands cool throughout the day.
  • Arco Comfort 15g PU: This tough working glove includes a lightweight liner coated with PU: that provides good abrasion resistance whilst retaining flexibility. This glove is ideal for handling intricate tasks, such as light engineering or small parts assembly.
  • Arco Comfort Light Latex: This glove is lightweight, fluid repellent, abrasion resistant and breathable. The lightweight, pliable material provides excellent grip in wet and dry conditions. This glove is ideal when a more robust level of protection is required, such as when working in construction, engineering or manufacturing environments.

Each glove in the new Comfort Light Range has been tested and approved to meet EN 388:2003 Standard, which assesses glove’s ability to protect against mechanical hazards. The Standard includes a series of four tests which measure the glove’s resistance to abrasion, cutting, tearing and puncture.

Arco has created an interactive product leaflet including all product information and EN Standards. The product leaflet can be found online and is easily accessible for customers to use.
