FOR YEARS, safety professionals have faced an unavoidable tradeoff: maximum cut resistance or maximum dexterity. In high-risk environments, achieving EN388 Cut Level F protection has typically meant bulky, restrictive gloves – often leading to reduced compliance, hand fatigue, and compromised productivity.
AS SUSTAINABILITY moves from aspiration to obligation, organisations across construction, manufacturing, logistics and beyond are being challenged to rethink how they source and specify personal protective equipment (PPE).

AFTER WEEKS of relentless rain, followed by an icy cold snap, and now yet another spell of wet weather, outdoor work has never been tougher. Staying warm and dry isn’t just about comfort – it’s essential for safety and productivity.
WHEN THE temperature drops and the damp sets in, your hands deserve more than just protection—they need comfort, warmth, and reliability. HydraTherm is part of the Tornado Gloves range at MCR Safety Europe; it’s a purpose-built winter work glove, engineered for performance in cold and challenging environments.
MCR SAFETY Europe has been working closely with the manufacturing side of its operation, to take Olba, one of its most popular general handling gloves, to the next level.
