GORE-TEX® gloves PROFESSIONAL

GORE-TEX® gloves provide protection against heat, flame, liquids and abrasion while ensuring you still have the tactility necessary to do your job. GORE-TEX® gloves with Gore grip technology are recommended when improved breathability and tactility is required. The GORE-TEX® insert also offers protection against burns caused by superheated steam, provides splash protection against certain chemicals (acc. to EN 659) and keeps the glove´s insulation dry.
