Geo Flex - Super-Tough, Lightweight Handling Glove

Up to 20% lighter for superior protection and comfort…

The technologists at MCR Safety have developed a new glove with an exciting set of protective credentials. Geo-Flex is a handling glove made for tough environments, it’s incredibly lightweight and dexterous, yet at the same time, it offers highly robust protection from abrasive materials. It’s ideal for all the scrapes and knocks experienced on a construction site when handling bricks, masonry, timber, breeze blocks and the like. From Ground Works through to First Fix, Geo-Flex should be the glove of choice.

360º Barrier against liquids

Geo-Flex acts as a barrier to block harmful substances such as cement and oil. It has a primary coating of Nitrile that extends over the entire glove right up to the cuff. It delivers 360° protection from all different types of moisture, liquids and oily fluids. Tested to the EN511 water permeability clause, you can be assured of reliable protection.

Sandy Nitrile coating for strength and grip

An additional highly durable palm coating of sandy Nitrile gives the glove it’s incredible grip in wet, dry and oily conditions. This robust yet supple layer is also what makes Geo-Flex so good for handling rough, abrasive materials. It’s super-tough, durable and strong yet it also has touchscreen fingertips so you can easily use your phone or tablet.

20% Lighter by design for dexterity and comfort

Dexterity is essential for most tradespeople and this glove acts like a second skin. The 18-gauge featherweight, form-fitting shell moves with your hand to minimise resistance and therefore reduce hand fatigue. It’s up to 20% lighter than a traditional dual-layer Nitrile glove so the wearer will experience supreme comfort.

Contact heat protection

Geo-Flex achieves level 1 certification to EN407 for contact heat, you’ll be protected against contact with 100°c temperatures for up to fifteen seconds. This is yet another very useful feature which makes the glove a ‘must have’ for so many different tasks and operations.

Great all-rounder…

Robust, flexible and hard-wearing, Geo-Flex was designed with Construction in mind yet it’s also equally at home in manufacturing, assembly, agriculture and much more

Geo-Therm – For Winter Hand Protection

Waterproof, Thermal, Featherweight…

Throughout the winter months work never stops for the construction industry and repairs to road and rail networks are essential, environmental and agricultural projects all continue regardless of the harsh conditions.

Anyone who endures these unpleasant working conditions needs to have the correct PPE and gloves are probably the most important piece of kit. When it’s cold, circulation to your extremities is reduced as your body focuses on keeping vital organs supplied with blood so they can function properly. That’s why your hands get cold before any other part of your body and keeping them warm can help maintain a healthy overall body temperature.

Thermal Insulation & Waterproof Barrier

Geo-Therm is a new glove that provides incredible thermal insulation in the form of a high-performance acrylic liner. Smooth and flexible Nitrile coating provides a 360º barrier against liquid and oily fluids because preventing your skin from becoming wet is so important. The Nitrile covers from cuff to fingertip, repelling moisture from all angles. It’s soft, supple nature allows for great dexterity and freedom of movement so you can carry out even the most intricate tasks with ease.

Featherweight for Comfort

This glove is light as a feather! The form-fitting shell moves with your hand for flexibility, manual dexterity and comfort. It’s designed to work with the body and stay on the hand for all day use.

Grip…

A second palm coating of sandy Nitrile provides the grip, reliable and firm, just what’s needed for all handling tasks. This additional layer of coating also increases the glove’s durability and strength. Geo-Therm is indeed an extremely tough and hardwearing glove.

Touch Screen Fingertips…

When it’s freezing cold, you don’t want to remove gloves to use your phone or tablet; no need to do so with Geo-Therm, touch-screen fingertips see to that. It’s also sanitised in the manufacturing process for hand hygiene and comfort.

Certified Thermal Credentials…

As you would expect from a winter glove, Geo-Therm has been tested to EN511 standards. There are three separate elements to the test which can be understood as follows:

Convective Cold, this measures how the glove will shield the hand from cold air. Scores are measured from 0 to 4.

Contact Cold, how the well the glove will provide a barrier when handling sub-zero material. Scores are measured from 0 to 4.

Water Permeability, a simple test to measure if the glove is water-proof or not. Scores are measured as a basic yes or no, no scoring 0 and yes scoring 1.

Geo-Therm achieves a very respectable EN511 221 making it a highly effective winter glove.
