European specialist in personal protective equipment uvex is launching a brand-new range of protective gloves against chemical risks. Certified to EN 374 Type A and coated with nitrile (NBR), uvex u-chem gloves offer excellent resistance to grease, mineral oils and many chemicals. Particularly comfortable (seamless) and ergonomic, the gloves are especially suited to professionals in the chemical industry, printing, the pharmaceutical industry, laboratories, maintenance, upkeep, cleaning and the automotive industry.

uvex u-chem 3300: the combination of comfort and protection
The u-chem 3300 model stands out for its excellent wearing comfort and pleasant feel, while guaranteeing perfect protection against many chemicals (JKLOPT). Its very thin lining (0,21 mm thick) gives it lightness and flexibility for daily use and long-term wear.

Made of natural bamboo fibres and nylon, it absorbs 2 times more moisture than a cotton glove, keeping hands dry all day long. In addition, its antibacterial properties prevent the development of unpleasant odours. Silicone-free according to the fingerprint test, uvex u-chem 3300 gloves are particularly well suited to painting work, for example.

Certified for food contact, they pose no danger to health or to food and can be used in the food-processing industry.

uvex u-chem gloves 3200: the solution for heavier work
Protecting the wearer against many chemicals (JKLMOT), uvex u-chem gloves offer a very good compromise between safety and flexibility.

Featuring a double coating of nitrile and nitrile foam (certified to EN 388 3 1 3 1), they are highly abrasion-resistant and guarantee the user excellent protection against mechanical risks.

With excellent grip, uvex u-chem gloves enable oily parts to be handled securely. They are also suitable for use in the metalworking, metal cleaning, petrochemical, oil and gas industries or parts machining.
