ISO 374 discusses protective gloves against dangerous chemicals and micro-organisms. ISO 374‑2 is an international standard on test methods for the determination of resistance to penetration of protective gloves to reduce the risk of workplace injuries.
ISO 374‑2 is the second part of a multi-part series that specifies a test method for the penetration resistance of gloves that protect against dangerous chemicals and micro-organisms.
ISO 374‑2 on the determination of penetration resistance in protective gloves is useful for:
Safety gloves are designed to protect workers' hands from hazards so that they can perform their job safely. Gloves come in many varied materials that offer protection against specific dangers.
ISO 374‑2 provides you with test methods, test principles, sampling, and procedures to test the performance of the protective gloves.
The test methods and procedures provided by ISO 374‑2 assist you to determine whether the protective glove is penetration resistant and assists in improving the quality of the protective glove, hence ensuring protection to end-users from workplace hazards, chemical hazards, and micro-organisms.
By adopting ISO 374‑2 the user can enhance the efficiency of the protective gloves and produce a product that has global acceptance in the market.EN ISO 374-2
