At extremely low temperatures down to -50 °C, special protective gloves are required. Cold protection gloves are designed to reliably protect the wearer from cold pain, especially at the fingertips, for the entire period of use. The relevant protective properties are defined in the EN 511 standard.

Thanks to their material composition, cold protection gloves protect the hands against cold and moisture from both the outside and inside. The coating on the palms ensures a firm and secure grip even in wet environments or when handling a cold object.
A large number of work areas require cold protection gloves, especially for working in the open air in winter (e.g. construction industry). In cold stores and ice production, on the other hand, work gloves are worn all year round to protect against the cold and ensure that work is carried out to a consistently high standard.
Cold protection gloves are suitable for working in cold environments or with cold objects. Their main function is therefore to keep out the cold. The coating of the work gloves enables a secure and firm grip without the object slipping out of your hands. The coating also makes the gloves water-repellent.
If cold objects get wet or melt due to changing temperatures, your hands will still stay dry in the work gloves. Despite the necessary insulation, cold protection gloves offer good freedom of movement so that work that requires dexterity can be carried out without any problems. Work gloves for protection against the cold are also breathable. Cold protection gloves can also be called thermal gloves.
Wearing gloves to protect against the cold is useful in a wide range of industries when working outdoors in winter. The hands are of course protected from the cold, but at the same time it is possible to continue working as the hands remain mobile. In addition to outdoor work during the cold seasons, there are also workplaces and industries that require cold weather gloves all year round. These primarily include ice production and work in cold stores. However, haulage companies and various industries such as packaging, waste disposal and cleaning also use cold protection gloves.
To maintain a secure grip when working with cold objects or in a cold environment, cold protection gloves are coated on the palm and fingertips. The coating material is usually latex or HPT polymer. However, to keep the hands warm inside the glove, a faux fur lining can be incorporated inside the glove. The majority of protective gloves are knitted from fabrics such as polyester, acrylic or nylon. In order to be able to offer the optimum cold protection for every hand size, the sizes of the gloves can be freely selected when ordering.
Work gloves for protection against the cold generally comply with the standards EN 388 (mechanical risks) and EN 511 (cold). PPE protection category II promises protection against medium risks when wearing cold gloves.
Place a tape measure around the widest part of your hand (thumbs excluded) and measure the circumference. You can now use the table below to determine the appropriate size:
