Comfort, cut resistance and durability feature in new Showa DURACoil range06 August 2019

The new multi-purpose DURACoil glove range by SHOWA combines high-level comfort with cut resistance, durability and exceptional grip performance, protecting workers in medium-low cut risk environments.

Introduced into the UK by Globus Group, the new safety glove range features SHOWA’s innovative DURACoil technology. This specialist process sees the liner engineered by tightly wrapping tenacious multifilament polyester around a cut-resistant fibre, which is then reinforced with High-Performance Polyethylene (HPPE). As a result, these high comfort gloves can be worn for extended periods of time, offering increased resistance to snags and abrasions and cut protection in line with EN 388:2016 cut level C.

Available in four different polymer coating finishes – Nitrile, Foamed Nitrile, Natural Rubber (Latex) and Polyurethane – the DURACoil range also offers exceptional grip performance in particular for component handling and assembly tasks in both wet and dry environments.

Key benefits of the new range include:

  • Good resistance against cuts, snags and tears
  • Upgraded mechanical risk protection for general purpose activities - EN 388:2016 cut level C
  • Soft, lightweight and ultra-comfortable with no skin irritation
  • Excellent fit and dexterity
  • Increased productivity with durable protection for multipurpose and cut risks
  • Consistent high quality and unmatched level of service
  • Unique SHOWA ergonomic hand shape design

  • Launderable and re-usable
  • 13-gauge seamless-knit liner
  • The series of seven cut C/A3 gloves is SHOWA’s direct response to the revised PPE regulations 2016, which saw a market-wide downgrade in EN388 and ANSI 105 cut level scores for re-certified products.
