Robust and Comfortable Cut Protection

The Uvex C500 Gloves are built using Uvex's patented Bamboo TwinFlex technology. This unique combination of bamboo and high-performance protective fibres ensures the highest levels of comfort, ventilation, and protection.

A combination of natural and artificial materials provides the best performance

What Is Level C Protection?

Level C cut-resistant gloves provide medium protection against cut hazards with a force of up to 10 newtons. These gloves would be classed as offering similar levels of protection as cut level 5 gloves which cover the old EN 388:2003 standards.

Superior Comfort

These gloves also utilise Uvex Climazone technology, which functions according to the same principles as the body's own climatic system, regulating temperature and removing excess moisture. Ideal for use in warm environments or for working outdoors in summer, Climazone gloves let you focus on your work by keeping your hands in total comfort.

Perfect Fit

The Uvex C500 Gloves feature Uvex 3D Ergo technology, which ensures the glove has a perfect anatomical fit while maintaining a high level of flexibility and outstanding tactile feel. This results in improved fingertip precision, which is essential during handling and assembly of small parts.

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.

Where Can I Find Out More?

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.
