COMMON COLD WORK CHALLENGES

· EN 407 is the European standard for gloves that protect against thermal risks such as heat and fire.

· It evaluates glove performance in areas including burning behaviours, contact heat, convective heat, radiant heat and molten metal resistance.

· Certified gloves allow users to compare protection levels and select products suitable for specific high-temperature applications.

· Always choose gloves based on the hazards present in your workplace.

· Professional welding gloves are designed to help reduce the risk of injury from small molten metal splashes, welding sparks and contact heat.

· However, no glove can eliminate all thermal hazards.

· Protection depends on the glove's certified performance, the amount of molten metal, exposure time and the working environment.

· Users should always follow safe welding practices and wear complete PPE.

· Leather offers an excellent balance of heat resistance, durability, flexibility and comfort, making it one of the most widely used materials for welding gloves.

· Split leather and full-grain leather are commonly selected for different welding processes because they help resist sparks and moderate contact heat while maintaining long service life.

· Reinforced stitching further improves glove durability in demanding environments.

· Heat resistant gloves are widely used in welding, metal fabrication, foundries, steel manufacturing, shipbuilding, automotive production and heavy industrial maintenance.

· Workers exposed to hot materials, sparks or open flames should select gloves that meet relevant heat protection standards to improve safety and productivity.

· Vulatora™ Heat Protection Technology is developed for demanding welding and high-temperature applications.

· By combining heat-resistant materials, reinforced construction and ergonomic design, it helps reduce heat transfer while maintaining comfort and flexibility.

· Together with GripVanta™, DuralVanta™ and VarioNova™, Safeyear provides a complete range of professional hand protection solutions for industrial users worldwide.
