Saintfabric ® fibers Patent No.ZL201810458195.2
The Saintfabric ® fibers are randomly arranged and intertwined to form a tight and irregular web structure, and then the layers of the web structure are overlapped. The point of a knife is bound and blocked by the layers of fiber during the penetration process, unable to push away all the filaments to fully penetrate to the wearer’s body
What is the EN388 standard?
EN388 is a European safety standard for gloves providing hand protection against mechanical risks. Even though the EN388 standard is not an Australian Standard, since its inception, it has become the benchmark in performance ratings for the glove manufacturing and safety clothing industry. This standard involves six specific tests that are designed to assess the performance of the fabric/layers.
