Ansell, a global leader in protection solutions, has unveiled a suite of cut-resistant HyFlex gloves engineered with next-generation Intercept technology yarns.

Ansell is offering eight new cut-resistant medium and light duty HyFlex Intercept glove styles, which provide the exceptional comfort and dexterity required by the world’s most demanding industrial workplaces. The gloves styles include Hyflex 11-724 , Hyflex 11-644, Hyflex 11-727, Hyflex 11-735, Hyflex 11-53, Hyflex 11-537, Hyflex 11-539, and Hyflex 11-541.

Offered in EN cut level 3, 4 and 5, and ANSI equivalent cut protection styles, the eight new medium and light duty glove styles complement an already comprehensive portfolio of Ansell cut protection options. The four new light duty styles are nitrile based and eight times more breathable than similar lightweight gloves and two and a half times more breathable than other cut protection gloves, according to tests conducted in Ansell R&D labs.

These new HyFlex cut protection gloves also offer enhanced features such as a silicon-free coating, dirt masking colours, a more tailored comfortable fit, and improved grip and abrasion resistance. The portfolio features the industry’s most comprehensive selection of application-specific styles, which are grounded in global insights about the unmet needs of workers who experience application-specific work process risks, the company informs in a statement.

Intercept Technology cut resistance solutions are part of a portfolio of advanced technologies developed by Ansell, featuring an innovative new knitting technology which blends engineered, synthetic, and natural fibres into high performance yarns. Ansell Intercept Technology enhances hand protection and productivity in work environments where sharp tools and materials are handled, and cut risks are ever-present. These environments include the automotive, metal fabrication and machinery equipment industries. (GK)
