Features of Ansell gloves

One of the world's leading manufacturers of high quality gloves is the Australian company Ansell. In this article, we will take a closer look at the features of Ansell gloves, as well as the nuances of their choice.

Ansell offers a wide range of different gloves. These include nitrile, knitted and latex. It should be noted that they are quite often used in various industries, although they are found mainly in the food and pharmaceutical sectors.

Ansell offers a wide range of products, but all gloves are characterized by the following advantages:

• compliance with international quality standards;
• increased wear resistance;
• use of special protective impregnation of our own production;
• comfort and ergonomics during work;
• reliable protection against cuts and punctures;
• multiple washes can be used, but this does not apply to NeoTouch gloves.

If we consider the shortcomings of the products, then it is worth noting that you should pay for excellent quality and reliability. Some models are not cheap, but they provide the highest level of protection.

Ansell offers several series of gloves.

This series includes knitted gloves but covered with nitrile foam. Products from this series are characterized by an excellent combination of protection and ease of use. Products from this series are designed to be worn for a long time, while there is no additional pressure in those places where tension occurs. Usually jerseys are purchased for household, construction needs or handling.

These gloves are designed specifically for working with oily parts, as they provide excellent protection for the hand, while guaranteeing increased wear resistance and a dry grip. Gloves belong to the 15th class of knitting. They are made of nylon and are coated with nitrile on top. They are available in white and blue. The manufacturer offers a wide range of sizes - 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.

This series includes gloves that have an additional protective layer on the palms. This option is often used to work with various cutting tools, sharp objects and workpieces. Vantage gloves reliably protect your hands from splashes of melt or small sparks.

• Sol-Vex. This series is designed to work with chemicals. It includes nitrile models. They have improved grip due to the presence of adhered sand in the grip area. If you need models for working with food, then you should pay attention to the options from the Sol-Vex proFood sub-series, because they are heat-resistant and hypoallergenic. They are not included in latex.

• NeoTouch. This line includes disposable neoprene gloves. They are suitable for a variety of industries. Gloves from this line were the first for disposable use. They are latex free, so they are great for preventing type 1 allergies. They are powder-free, which guarantees excellent protection against dermatitis.They can be used for contact with alcohols, bases and acids. They are rightfully one of the most comfortable synthetic models. Gloves from the NeoTouch collection are characterized by the presence of an inner polyurethane coating, which helps to facilitate the donning process. Textured material is featured at the fingertips for a secure grip in both wet and dry environments.

Let's consider in more detail the characteristics of known models.

• Edge 48-126 - these are protective gloves of a universal nature. They are designed for light work, while increasing safety and productivity. They are characterized by excellent resistance to tearing and abrasion, and have a reliable grip. The gloves are made using seamless technology, which ensures comfort when wearing them.

• Winter Monkey Grip. This particular model is very popular, because it is frost-resistant. Such gloves are suitable even for work at –40 degrees. They are characterized by resistance to punctures, cuts or wear. This model provides a secure grip on both dry and oily surfaces. They perfectly retain heat inside, while being flexible even in severe frosts. This model is antistatic. Such gloves are often purchased for work related to the transportation of oil in the cold season, maintenance of refrigerated storage facilities or cold rooms.

• Hylite. Such gloves are in demand because they allow contact with various surfaces, because they are oil and petrol resistant. They are characterized by increased strength, elasticity and excellent grip even on smooth surfaces. Thanks to the presence of a cotton lining, the skin of the hands is reliably protected from irritations. Such gloves are quite often purchased during loading and unloading operations, repairing various equipment, in mechanical engineering and construction.

When choosing gloves from Ansell, you should determine for what purpose they are needed, as well as the duration of contact. The choice is influenced by whether the owner of the gloves will come into contact with hazardous substances, as well as what they will be (oily or wet), how long the contact will last.

Please note that thin gloves cannot provide as much protection as thicker models. Of course, the density of the products has an effect on the relaxedness of movement. An excellent solution is a compromise between mobility and protection.

The size of the product plays an important role in the selection, since only the correctly selected model will guarantee convenience in use. If your size is not available, then you should give preference to gloves of a smaller size than a larger one.
