IMPACT PROTECTION Gloves: Exonit 852 & 853
In a wide range of industries involving heavy duty activities, hand injuries are a major issue as hands are vulnerable when exposed to impact and crushing forces. When a tool or falling object knocks the hand, energy is transferred, and serious injuries can be caused (pinches, bruises, fractures, cuts). To mitigate and shield from impacts, MAPA PROFESSIONAL has designed brand new gloves : EXONIT 852 & 853, with or without cut protection, featuring an impact protection structure with a superior dexterity.
Introducing our NEW ADVANCED GRIP TECHNOLOGY
In industrial environments where workers are exposed to chemical hazards, it is important to wear gloves with an improved grip to secure handling as much as to be protected against chemicals. Indeed, an optimal hand grip is vital for worker safety when handling materials. Grip efficiency depends on the level of friction between two surfaces: when friction is low and objects lack support from below, workers apply even more grip force to prevent slips and drops. With less grip force, workers experience greater comfort and productivity. A study comparing the force applied when handling objects with gloves with different types of grips showed that wearing an optimal grip would reduce the force exerted by the worker by up to 23%**. At Mapa Professional, we understand the importance of providing multi-protection solutions for workers. The Ultranitril 358 is an ideal glove with secure grip and chemical protection for safe work in dry & greasy environments. With this new product, Mapa Professional introduces its brand-new technology. It highlights the grip that is ensured by embossed embedded patterns securing a greater hand grasp on objects in dry and greasy environments, while offering high dexterity.
