The gloves are off August 1st 2008 Sperian Protection has
launched two new products
that combine protection and
freedom of movement:
Perfect Poly Aqua and
Polytril Air Comfort gloves.
Polyurethane (PU) gloves
are recognised for their
ability to resist abrasion and
tears, as well as their
comfort. However, the
method used for their
manufacture involves the
use of a toxic solvent, DMF
(DIMETHYLFORMAMIDE) to
dilute the polyurethane.
Perfect Poly Aqua gloves,
knit polyamide/spandex with
a water-based (thus solventfree)
PU coating on the
palm and fingertips
eliminating toxic dangers
and reducing the risk of
allergies.
Thanks to the water-based
solution, the PU does not
penetrate the glove so
there is no contact between
the hand and the coating.
New fibre technology has
increased the absorption
properties of the polyamide,
reducing the feeling of
perspiration. More articles from Sperian Protection (UK) Ltd: |
