In industrial environments, workers’ hands are exposed to many risks, including exposure to chemicals and cutting hazards that can lead to serious injury. MAPA PROFESSIONAL offers an ideal solution for many applications where both chemical exposure and cut protection are required, especially in wet or oily environments.

Sometimes workers face both chemical and cut hazards at the same time, leading them to opt for dual protection, often leading to the use of inappropriate or double gloves. This significantly limits their dexterity and may additionally be inconsistent with PPE use. Similarly, in chemical environments, the properties of a glove can be reduced by damage (swelling, hardening, cracking) resulting from handling aggressive chemicals. Therefore, a degradation test in accordance with EN ISO 374-1:2016 has been introduced for all chemical gloves.

 

MAPA PROFESSIONAL has developed the UltraNitril 410 glove model, providing advanced hand and arm protection against chemical injury and cuts.

 

CHEMICAL PROTECTION

Introducing our new technology: the TOPCHEM technology, a special blend of PVC and nitrile that forms a barrier to provide increased acid resistance. Your glove will stay in better condition for a longer period of time.

The long (35 cm) and folding cuff provides additional protection and prevents chemicals from running down the arm. Reflective lining alerts the user to damage to the chemical barrier.

 

CUT PROTECTION

The textile portion of the UltraNitril 410 is made of highly effective composite fibers, providing ISO C level cut protection on both the hand and arm. UltraNitril 410 fits perfectly in the hand, providing increased comfort. Its special design offers good flexibility, ease of movement and prevents hand fatigue. With a reinforced grip, our glove provides optimum grip in wet or oily environments, and also has a grade 4 abrasion resistance and shows good mechanical resistance, allowing extended use.

 

Don’t limit yourself to just chemical protection or cut resistance – choose both with ULTRANITRIL 410 and keep your glove in better condition for longer.

Since manufacturing the first flocked glove in 1957, Mapa Professional has been guided by the same motto. Protecting the health of workers using gloves and ensuring a safe and clean working environment. The company’s mission is to be a leader in the market for high-quality protective gloves thanks to the innovation and technical sophistication of its products, the efficiency of its distribution and its understanding of users’ needs.
