ROSTAING Cryo Waterproof Cryogenic Gloves
Ensuring every part of your body is properly protected is imperative to your safety when handling cryogenic products. The ROSTAING Cryo Waterproof Cryogenic Gloves can be relied on to effectively protect hands from freezer burns and frostbites in a range of cryogenic atmospheres. Their leather coating and wool and cotton fleece lining ensures warmth and protection against splashes of liquid nitrogen, liquid oxygen, liquid helium, dry ice, and more.
What's Included?
- 1 x Pair of Cryogenic Gloves
Which Size Is Right for Me?
The ROSTAING Cryo Gloves are available in four sizes that should be suitable for most users. To find your perfect pair, please measure the circumference of your palm and length of your hand as shown and match the results to the table below.

tested to European Standards
The ROSTAING Cryogenic Gloves have been designed to prevent serious damage to hands and arms when working in sub zero temperatures. These gloves have been tested to EN standards EN 388 and EN 511, measuring their resistance to mechanical threats and the cold. When tested they achieved the following scores:
Performance Ratings
EN 388 (Mechanical Protection)
| Hazard | Level of Resistance |
|---|
| Abrasion | Level 3 |
| Cut | Level 2 |
| Tear | Level 2 |
| Puncture | Level 3 |
| ISO Blade Cut | N/A |
EN 511 (Cold Resistance)
| Hazard | Level of Resistance |
|---|

Who Can Use the ROSTAING Cryogenic Gloves?
The Cryogenic Waterproof Gloves are designed for extreme cold. Recommended areas of use include:
- Liquid nitrogen atmospheres
- Liquid oxygen atmospheres
- Liquid helium atmospheres
- Laboratories
- Dry ice
- Blast freezers
- Walk-in freezers
- Cold rooms
- Handling supercooled materials
Please Note: That these gloves are designed for handling extremely cold materials. We wouldn't recommend them for simple, cold outdoor work. However, if your work means that you have to handle items that are far below freezing, then these gloves are ideal.
What Temperatures Can These Freezer Gloves Protect Against?
These gloves are designed for people who work with materials that are below freezing. This can include cryogenics, dry ice handling, bottle handling and scientific work. They are most suitable when handling solid materials that are typically between -125°C and -150°C.
Protection Against Splashes of Liquid Nitrogen
One of the main uses of the cryogenic gloves is to protect against spills and splashes of cryogenic materials, including liquid nitrogen. This can occur when pouring, or just generally working with, ultra-cold cryogenic materials. The Cryogenic Gloves, material is designed to protect from splashes at -196°C.
Please note that these gloves are not suitable for complete immersion in liquid nitrogen.
How Waterproof Are the ROSTAING Liquid Nitrogen Gloves?
The ROSTAING Gloves are completely waterproof with a palm and back made of high quality water-repellent cow leather, and a thick Porelle waterproof membrane. This is particularly ideal for cryogenics and liquid nitrogen handling, as you will be expected to come into contact with extremely cold substances that may be in liquid form.
How Comfortable Are These Sub Zero Gloves?
Working in extremely low temperatures, you'll want to be sure you're hands are not only protected from injury but are also comfortable to be able to undertake the work effectively. Lined with a wool/cotton fleece and ISO AIR felt, these cryogenic gloves provide maximum comfort and warmth for cryogenic handling.

What is EN 388?
You might have noticed that this product adheres to EN standard EN 388. EN standards ensure that the product you are buying meets the safety standards of the European Committee for Standardization (CEN), the highest standards organisation recognised by and working on behalf of the European Union. To pass any EN standard, a PPE product must undergo some of the most rigorous safety tests around.
There are many EN standards that our gloves adhere to. However, the EN standard that we’re concerned about here is EN 388. EN 388 stands for Mechanical Resistance, and informs you of your gloves' resistance to abrasion, cuts, tears and punctures.
How Do I Read the EN 388 Score?
Simply speaking, the higher the score that this product achieves, the better the product will be at resisting that hazard. Products will score between Level 0 and Level 4 for abrasion, tears and punctures, and if they weren’t tested for that hazard you will see N/A written instead of a number.
Cuts are a little different and, with the EN 388 standard rewritten in 2016, it means that gloves will either be tested to cut resistance or ISO cut resistance (sometimes called TDM cut resistance). Gloves tested to cut resistance will score between Level 0 and Level 5, and gloves tested to ISO cut resistance will achieve a score between Level A and Level F with the higher letter offering better cut protection.

This is just a brief overview of EN standard EN 388 so you know where you are standing. For further information, you can see the Introductory EN 388 Blog in our Knowledge Centre.
What is EN 511?
You might have noticed that this product adheres to EN standard EN 511. EN standards ensure that the product you are buying meets the safety standards of the European Committee for Standardization (CEN), the highest standards organisation recognised by and working on behalf of the European Union. To pass any EN standard, a PPE product must undergo some of the most rigorous safety tests around.
There are many EN standards that our gloves adhere to. However, the EN standard that we’re concerned about here is EN 511. EN 511 stands for all things cold, and means that your gloves have been tested for their convective cold resistance, contact cold resistance and water permeability properties.
How Do I Read the EN 511 Score?
Simply speaking, the higher the score achieved the better the product will be at resisting the hazard tested. For the first two tests (convective cold resistance and contact cold resistance), the product will achieve between a Level 0 and a Level 4. The higher the score the better the resistance, with a Level 0 score meaning that it failed and an N/A score meaning that the product wasn’t tested for this hazard.
For water permeability the product will achieve either a Level 0 or a Level 1. Level 1 means that the product is waterproof, and Level 0 means that it isn't.
