Protection Ratings and Safety Standards
EN 388: Mechanical Resistance
EN 388 is a European regulation governing the sale of gloves used for safety and protection. It determines the gloves' performance when used for protection against mechanical machinery by measuring the fabric's abrasion, cut, tear and puncture resistance.
The EN 388 cut resistance test uses a single sharp implement to repeatedly pressure a glove in order to determine the amount of force required to cause visible and functional damage.
Standard | Resistance Rating |
Abrasion Resistance | Level 3 |
Cut Resistance | N/A |
Tear Resistance | Level 4 |
Puncture Resistance | Level 1 |
ISO Cut Resistance | Level A |

What's Unique About MCR Safety General Handling Gloves?
The most unique aspect of these gloves is their coating and what it does to maximise grip strength. Unlike flatter coatings, the inclusion of suction latex massively strengthens the users grip, preventing objects from slipping and sliding about.
What Is a Latex Suction Coating?
Latex-suction refers to the unique patterned grip detailing on the palm of the gloves. As you can see from the image below, there are tiny squares that generate friction when handling an object, making it harder for smooth boxes and bits of equipment to fall out of your hands.
This uneven texture is great for grip and for absorbing microscopic droplets of moisture that can linger on the glove face to compromise grip strength and stability.
Snug-Fit Design
To ensure your hands are as comfortable as possible while you work, MCR Safety GP1005LS Gloves are designed against a tight fitting and ultra lightweight design specification, making it incredibly easy to make natural and comfortable hand movements. This also gives the gloves an fantastic sense of touch, helping you ensure that you can actually feel everything you hold and touch.
Antibacterial Coating
To give MCR GP1005LS Latex Work Gloves a fantastic hygiene and comfort level, they utilise an antibacterial coating, helping the gloves feel fresher for longer on your hands. This not only ensures that your hands feel good in the gloves, but also enables you to keep your work as clean and hygienic as possible.
Maximum Grip In Wet and Dry Conditions
Using a latex suction coating over the fingers and palms, MCR Safety GP1005LS gloves provide a fantastic level of grip in both wet and dry conditions. The coating actually provides suction between the gloves and the object you're carrying, enabling you to ensure you have the best hold possible.
What's So Special About Latex?
Latex is an incredibly durable, cost-efficient coating. Because of its widespread use and subsequently inexpensive nature, gloves manufactured with it are inexpensive whilst remaining high quality. Latex coated gloves tend to have a higher puncture and tear resistance than their nitrile counterparts.
