Protection Ratings and Safety Standards
EN 388
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 4 |
| Cut Resistance | N/A |
| Tear Resistance | Level 4 |
| Puncture Resistance | Level 3 |
| ISO Cut Resistance | Level C |

Suitable Applications and Environments for Polyco Fingerless Gloves
Please view the list below to see which applications, environments and professions are suited to the unique fingerless design of Polyco MGP-FL Safety Gloves:
Innovative Framing Glove Style Fingerless Design
A framing glove leaves the thumb, index and middle finger exposed to promote natural touch and a high level of dexterity. Fingerless gloves are an excellent choice for roofers, builders, construction professionals, electricians and other professionals after something that both protects and enhances precision.
What Tasks Can Fingerless Gloves Help Me Complete?
- Ease of access to smartphones, tablets and human machine interfaces
- Ordering parts, scrolling through plans online and replying to text messages
- Intricately removing and altering parts in engines and other machines
- Picking up tricky and intricate tools, equipment and parts
- Adjusting switches
- Holding nails, screws and bolts in place
Maximum Level 4 Abrasion and Tear Resistance Rating
When used in building and construction environments, you need to know that your gloves can withstand breakage, splitting, tearing and other exposures that may cause damage to a garment. Under EN 388, a maximum abrasion and tear resistance rating indicates that a glove is seriously hardwearing and can withstand a great deal of harmful exposure before showing signs of damage.
Uncoated and Breathable Backside
Fed up of that nasty sweaty, odorous smell when you remove your gloves at the end of the day? Constant red blotches appearing on the backs of your hands?
An uncoated backside allows odour, sweat, perspiration and smell to naturally exit the glove throughout the day. This means that any build-up that could potentially cause the development and onset of dermatological conditions like eczema and dermatitis is allowed to freely exit the glove whilst you work.
Polyurethane Coating Benefits
Polyurethane is often considered the ideal glove coating for builders and construction professionals as it is incredibly hard wearing in the face of general wear and tear. It is a flexible coating that remains durable when handling heavy and dense material throughout the day.
As polyurethane is a non-breathable coating, Polyco MGP-FL Fingerless Gloves utilise a palm and finger-only coating to allow the back of the glove to breathe, maximising airflow and allowing odour and sweat to exit naturally.
Elasticated and Comfortable Knit Wrist
An elasticated knit wrist is a welcome addition to any safety glove, for reasons of comfort and practicality. As well as cradling the wrist in a comfortable position, a flexible and soft knit wrist prevents dirt, dust and debris entering the glove, stopping irritation and itching in their tracks.

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.
