Every day, people all over the world injure their hands at work. In fact, hand injuries are a leading cause of lost workdays and emergency-room visits. Hand injuries can be costly to employers and life altering for employees.
In Europe, the standard EN 388:2003 is used to regulate protection classes of cut protection safety gloves.
Bennett Safetywear, the long established Liverpool-based manufacturer of high performance hand protection, will be showcasing the latest additions to its well-known Blazemaster range of structural firefighting gloves certified to EN659.
