New Honeywell glove line helps workers easily identify the proper cut protection
Color-coded marking system matches glove with EN/ANSI standard so workers can use the right protection for the job
Honeywell has launched a new line of industrial work gloves—CoreShieldTM— with a color-coded marking system that makes it simple to choose the correct cut protection for the work application according to the new EN/ANSI standards. The CoreShield line comprises 22 models offering cut-resistance from A1 to A9 level protection and are woven with a lightweight, high-strength yarn developed by Honeywell.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the hand is the most oft-injured body part and cuts are the most common workplace injury. Companies spend over $24,000 on average for every hand injury. In many cases of injury, workers are simply not wearing the proper glove for the job.
