Ansell Healthcare Europe announces conclusive results of independent lab tests of the performance of its chemical splash resistant Touch N Tuff gloves.
Specifically designed for production employees who are at risk from chemical splashes in the workplace, the nitrile Touch N Tuff has been extensively tested against a wide variety of hazardous industrial chemicals by the independent laboratory Centexbel. The results have shown a high level of protection for chemicals from nine families for these single-use gloves. The industries which use these hazardous chemicals include chemicals and cosmetics manufacturing, automotive production, laboratories and pharmaceutical industries, as well as food processing, dry cleaning, cleaning products, inks and dyes. The gloves' 100% nitrile composition is highly recommended against the aliphatic hydrocarbons present in lubricants.
The Touch N Tuff is a single use glove which is flexible and easy to don. The form of the glove has been specially studied to optimise wearing comfort. Workers get a clean, never-worn glove each time they need to mix chemicals, pull racks and frames, empty overflows, work with hazardous waste recovery or clean up spills. With Touch N Tuff, Ansell offers a veritable ‘insurance policy' against accidental exposure to chemicals.
