Puncture vs. Needlestick

When to use Puncture resistant cut glove or a true needle resistant glove?

The difference between a cut and a puncture may not be obvious. A cut may start with the tip of a pointed object and continue as a cut. However, when exposed to puncture risks such as wood splinters or sharp metal or glass shards, you should get some puncture protection. The puncture may also be crude and blunt or very fine with a sharp cutting edge, like a hypodermic needle.

The puncture test in the EN388 standard is made with a 1mm flat tip probe, which is very coarse compared to real-life puncture hazards. At Eureka, we test puncture resistance from coarse probes to thin and sharp needles. The key takeaway is that when the puncture threat is finer than about 0.5mm in diameter, you need to switch from a “Puncture 3 or 4 rated” cut-resistant glove to a real needle-resistant glove like the Eureka 15-4 Puncture Soft.

Warm or cold, Eureka has the meat processing glove for you!

Hand safety in slaughterhouses can be divided into two categories: pre-cold storage and post-cold storage. Eureka has the solution for both stages of processing.

For processing warm/room temperature carcasses pre-cold storage we recommend our 18-4 Cool Insider. (EN388 Cut level E / ANSI A5). A thin and cool-feel glove for a safe and steady grip on the knife hand. Skin friendly due to its fiberglass and steel-free construction and lasts up to 20 washing cycles!

For frozen/cooled carcasses post-cold storage processing we recommend our long lasting and comfortable 10-5 Food (EN388 Cut level F / ANSI A6) with a reverse knit construction and cotton lining for insulation from the cold.

 

Aid to Ukraine!

Recently, Eureka has donated 17,000 pairs of gloves to Ukraine in an effort to support local rescue and aid services.

We have sent Arc Flash gloves for power grid repairs, cut protection gloves for rescue services and winter gloves.

Wishing everyone a safe Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from the Eureka team.
