5. About the Hand Protection Industry Hand injuries are the second-leading cause of injury in the workplace. Effective hand protection can minimize or eliminate many injuries and long-term debilitating consequences. Evolution of the hand protection industry has come a long way since the advent of simple chore gloves made of cotton, jersey or bulky canvas. Strict standards govern comfort, fit and style.

6. Choosing the Correct Glove Evaluate existing physical conditions. Consider features you need for your applications:  grip, length, dexterity, comfort, insulation, type of cuff Select the glove that offers you the optimum combination of features and benefits, as well as resistance to both physical and chemical hazards.

7. Standards Compliance The American National Standard Institute (ANSI) provides standards so manufacturers can classify their products for specified areas of glove performance. They develop tests to evaluate many glove characteristics, including:  Cut resistance/puncture resistance/abrasion resistance  Chemical resistance  Flame resistance/heat resistance/cold resistance  Seam strength

8. Glove Features No two applications are exactly alike, so Global has designed a variety of glove styles to meet thousands of job situations. Patented formulations include:  Etched/Wrinkled and textured finishes  Lined and supported versions  Various lengths and weights We have the glove you need to get the job done.

9. Glove Industry Terminology Disposable gloves Laminated or Impregnated gloves Supported gloves Unsupported gloves Cut resistant gloves

10. Cuff Designs Knitwrist  Designed to keep the glove firmly in place  Prevents debris from entering the glove  Enhances warmth  Should not be used where quick glove removal is required
