Most hand injuries can be prevented if workers consistently wear protective gloves. But workers often remove gloves because they restrict necessary movement and comfort to do their jobs.
We’ve curated a wide selection of cut resistant gloves made from Dyneema, Kevlar, and HPPE, all engineered for ultimate wearer comfort, which lower the risk of cuts and lacerations during work.

Cut Resistant Glove Standards
There are 2 principal standards in assessing the protection offered by work gloves: ANSI/ISEA 105 in the U.S., and EN 388, the EU standard also widely referred to in regions like Canada, Australia/New Zealand, and South America.
These standards underwent significant updates in 2015-2016 to ensure consistence between both standards and to keep pace with the evolution of cut-resistant materials, including high-performance polyethylene (HPPE), PVA yarns, heat-resistant aramid fibers, and ultra-strong tungsten.
ANSI 105 & EN 388 assess gloves for:
Cut Resistant Glove Materials
Materials make a huge difference in terms of comfort and protection. If the protective gloves are stiff, itchy, hot, uncomfortable, or don’t breathe, workers would not want to wear them for an entire shift, and then, injuries happen.
