Ares
The new ARES glove with the worldwide highest level is a non-leather textile fire fighting glove Certified to AS/NZS 2161.6-2014 and fulfils the extremely strict standards tested and approved by an official Australian certification body. It is the result of painstaking development work. In association with its extremely cooperative pre-suppliers, ESKA® spent six years testing, inventing, discarding, re-designing and refining the glove. The glove consists of several new highly technical fire resistant and thermally protected materials fully developed by ESKA®. The material of the palm is a composition of 8 components developed over several years. The lining, specially developed as well, is made of sophisticated materials and is produced in a double-wall knitting construction on special machines.

Kevlar®
Kevlar® is an aramid fiber with a low specific weight that offers high tensile strength, excellent heat resistance, dimensional stability, and low elongation to break. Kevlar® is chemical-resistant and has outstanding abrasion resistance.
Antibacterial Silver
Silver fibres are antibacterial (bacteria is eliminated in less than an hour), preventing odour formation. Silver is also temperature-regulating and anti-static.
Cut Protection Lining
A newly developed cut resistant lining made from Kevlar® using steel fiberglass and silver threads (anti-bacterial) guarantees the users the highest level of safety for emergency services, even in extreme circumstances.
Kermel
The product by the leading European manufacturer of meta-aramid fibers is used in protective clothing for heat and flame protection. The material is suitable for use under extreme temperatures and offers optimum mechanical performance while also fulfilling the high requirements in terms of heat protection, comfort, and breathability.
Thumb Knuckle Protector
Newly developed stretch absorber with air pockets protects against shock, impact and high heat.
