Are These Gloves Suitable for Handing Cold Materials?
Whether you work in cold storage rooms or outside in the winter, handling cold objects can cause numbness and even pain. Having been tested to provide Level 1 contact cold protection, the Hantex Alpine Clothes will keep your hands warm as you work throughout the day.
Sandy Latex Palm Provides Excellent Grip
To help ensure a firmer grip when handling cold tools and objects, the Hantex Alpine Work Gloves feature a second coating of latex fashioned with a sandy texture. This sandy texture creates greater friction between an object and the gloves' surface, resulting in a more secure grip, even when handling wet or oily materials.
High-Visibility Orange Colourway
The Hantex Alpine Gloves feature a bright orange colour design that helps you stand out in low light conditions. This improved visibility can reduce risk at locations near fast moving traffic, or where there is heavy machinery in operation.
