Home » What you should know about ANSI/ISEA glove standards
A lot can change in five years. Consider this: in 2011, NASA’s Juno Spacecraft was just starting its trip to Jupiter, only six U.S. states allowed same-sex marriage and LeBron James was storming the playoff court in a Miami Heat jersey.
Time marches on, and with it progress. That’s why ANSI has decided to update its national hand protection standards. ANSI/ISEA 105-2016 is the latest revision of a voluntary industry consensus standard first published in 1999, then revised in 2005 and 2011. Such standards and classifications are critical for the industry, as they help safety managers, employers and product users appropriately select gloves for whatever workplace exposures exist in their specific line of work.
