Over the years, welding gloves have undergone significant advances in terms of materials, ergonomics and technology. Once made mainly of leather, welding gloves now use technical materials and more innovative cuts to offer greater protection and optimum comfort.
A safe and comfortable welding glove is made from a technical assembly of high-performance flame-retardant materials combined with the finest leathers. This gives the gloves excellent resistance to heat and abrasion. Their resistance to high temperatures and molten metal splashes make them ideal choices for professional welders. What’s more, leather tanning techniques have evolved to make it thinner and more supple, while retaining its insulating properties. The addition of ultra-heat-resistant fibres, such as para-aramid or mineral filament, completes the glove assembly for total heat permeability.
In addition to protection against thermal hazards, manufacturers of welding gloves are now paying particular attention to ergonomics and comfort. Technical advances in insulating materials have also made it possible to design gloves that are lighter yet offer optimum thermal protection, reducing user fatigue during long welding sessions. Modern models incorporate features such as adjustable cuffs and breathable linings to ensure a perfect fit and prevent the build-up of perspiration. In addition, some gloves are designed with pre-formed patterns to follow the natural shape of the hand, reducing fatigue and improving handling. Thanks to a unique complexing, these protective gloves offer optimum comfort for unrivalled agility.
By investing in welding gloves that offer the optimum balance between protection, technology and comfort, users can improve their safety and efficiency in the workplace.
For 50 years, the LEBON Group’s priority has been the safety of its equipment. As a manufacturer, we manage the production chain, techniques and materials, and we know the demands of production. At LEBON, we have been proud to produce quality gloves for 3 generations. Whether it’s cut-resistant gloves, heat-resistant gloves, protective sleeves or protective equipment, we have the know-how to protect you and your equipment. Our priority is also to provide responsible protective equipment. Clean Pu system, ETP system, responsible transportation, we implement responsible actions and future projects for a better world.
