A glove for all seasons
19 March 2014
Globus has launched the 306 glove (from the Showa Best brand) which, as well as providing a balance between safety, dexterity, performance and value, is said to be a ‘glove for all seasons’.
Globus' marketing manager Steve Shale says: "The unpredictable nature of the British weather means that outdoor workers often face a multitude of conditions and ensuring hands remain comfortable when going from wet to dry conditions and vice versa is a considerable challenge whilst wearing the same glove. The 306 is a revolutionary grip glove which overcomes this.”
The306 combines high grade foam latex with a flat latex coating on the palm which is said to enable impressive grip, dexterity as well as breathability. This breathability means reduced perspiration in hot conditions and improved dryness in wet conditions and as a result, workers only need one type of glove – whatever the weather.
The glove also mimics the natural contours and curvature of the hand to reduce muscular stress and hand fatigue, while the seamless knit of the first grade materials used also provides optimum comfort and eliminates skin irritation. The spongy foam latex offers protection to the back of the hands whilst still affording flexibility and fit.
