Comfort, grip, and mechanical protection.

Properties of nylon:

 Nylon has good mechanical, electrical, and chemical properties. It resists wear very well, especially friction, does not quickly fatigue the hand, and withstands heat well, but not flame. It has low absorbency, which is ideal for a glove if you need to keep your hands dry.

Properties of latex foam:

Latex foam essentially has the same characteristics as regular latex. Its properties vary depending on the additives dispersed in the resin matrix. In the case of foam, a vulcanizing agent and a gelling agent have been added, causing a slight loss of elasticity. Latex foam is not a good barrier against viruses and transmissible pathogens or even liquids in general, since foaming makes latex porous and therefore permeable. As long as the manufacturer's usage limits are respected, your glove will offer good tactile sensitivity while being comfortable.

Features of the Horizon safety glove in nylon and latex:

 This protective glove stands out for its fine knit that preserves the sense of touch, an asset for professionals requiring tactile sensitivity. The nylon used does not pill, resists wear and heat, and keeps hands dry thanks to its low absorbency. Latex foam offers excellent grip on dry surfaces and good hold on wet surfaces. The glove complies with EN388 standards with a resistance rating of 3112, ensuring protection against abrasion, cuts, tearing, and punctures.

Easy installation of the latex foam work glove:

For optimal use, it is recommended to choose the size that fits your hand. The Horizon glove slips on easily thanks to its flexibility and fitted cuff. It is designed to conform to the shape of the hand without hindering movement, making it ideal for dynamic work environments. Before donning, it is advisable to ensure hands are clean and dry to maximize glove performance.

Maintenance of the Horizon glove in nylon and latex foam:

 This reusable glove can be washed in cold water (maximum 30 °C) with a mild detergent. It can be machine dried at low temperature. It is imperative not to use bleach, which could alter the properties of latex. Regular maintenance helps extend the glove’s lifespan while maintaining its protective and comfort performance.

Usage tips for the handling glove in latex foam:

 The Horizon glove is recommended for construction, renovation, handling, and general manual tasks. It is perfectly suited for environments requiring dexterity and good grip. It should not be used in prolonged contact with organic solvents or hydrocarbons, as latex foam quickly degrades upon contact with these substances. This glove is not intended to be immersed in liquids and does not provide an effective barrier against pathogens or liquids.
