Equipment Analysis

Eco-Friendly Engineering and High-Performance Cut Resistance

The Portwest AP18 SG C15 Eco Nitrile-Coated Gloves are pioneering safety gloves that fuse top-tier industrial hand protection with sustainable development. Built using an innovative 'PET bottle to glove' concept, the 15-gauge liner is knit from recycled plastic bottles, actively reducing carbon emissions by saving 227g of CO2 per pair during production. The recycled PET yarn structure boasts inherent moisture-managing properties, pulling sweat away from the skin to keep hands completely dry, cool, and comfortable across fast-paced manual work.

Industrial Benefits and 360-Degree Breathable Grip

Featuring an advanced micro-foam nitrile palm coating, these safety gloves deliver complete 360° breathability alongside exceptional sensitivity for ultra-high dexterity tasks. Engineered for ultimate durability, they possess an EN ISO Level C and ANSI Cut Level A3 barrier to shield hands from moderate laceration hazards. To protect pristine surfaces from finish contamination, the construction is entirely silicone-free and LABS-conformity tested. A reinforced thumb crotch extends the glove's lifespan in high-friction zones, while a specialized dropped little finger design mimics natural hand anatomy to provide a snug, fatigue-reducing fit.

Specific Applications and Compatibility

  • Automotive & Paint Line: 100% silicone-free formulation prevents surface finish defects during body assembly and spraying.

  • Electronics & Component Manufacturing: Highly tactile, lint-free handling of small components paired with complete touchscreen compatibility on thumbs and index fingers.

  • Glass Handling & Construction: High-tier abrasion resistance (ANSI Level 5) and reliable cut defense when shifting sharp materials.

  • Hygienic Work Environments: Treated with a Texpel Micro anti-microbial finish that kills 99.9% of bacteria, maintaining all-day freshness.
