Polyco has launched its Mad Grip
gloves range, which is said to deliver
impressive anti-abrasion and dry
grip performance with high levels of
comfort and dexterity. Lasting up to
ten times longer than
traditionally dipped
products, the protection
zones incorporate an
innovative
thermoplastic
elastomer (TPE).

A manufacturing
technique is used where
the use of an injection moulding
process involving TPE (a
combination of plastic and rubber) is
heated to a liquid form and injected
at high pressure into a mould cavity
containing the glove liner. The
thermoplastic solution then cools,
securely bonding to the glove fabric.

This process ensures that the exact
amount of material is used and
the finish is consistent; any
extra material can be reground
and reused, resulting in
very little waste. The
ergonomically designed
mould incorporates precurved
palm and finger
construction for a
comfortable fit and flexibility. A
tread pattern system provides dry
grip that requires the wearer to exert
less force when gripping an object or
surface. Added comfort comes from
a breathable, seamless liner.
