Material Composition | Heavy-duty tasks (mechanics, gardening) | Industry: 250 GSM synthetic fabric; Our Base: 285 GSM PU-coated (▲1 ISO 3801); Advanced: 300 GSM reinforced PU (▲2) | Base: 14% thicker for enhanced protection; Advanced: 20% stronger durability | Base may feel bulkier; Advanced reduces flexibility slightly |
Chemical Resistance | Chemical handling (labs, industrial work) | Industry: Resists 10 chemicals (ASTM D543); Base: 30+ chemicals (▲1 ASTM F739); Advanced: 50+ chemicals (▲2) | Base: Protects against common chemicals; Advanced: Handles harsher substances | Base inadequate for extreme chemicals; Advanced may degrade faster over time |
Abrasion Resistance | Rough surfaces (construction, mechanics) | Industry: EN388 Level 2; Base: Level 3 (▲1); Advanced: Level 4 (▲2) | Base: Resists moderate abrasion; Advanced: Withstands heavy wear | Base wears faster in extreme conditions; Advanced less flexible |
Cut Resistance | Sharp objects (metalworking, glass) | Industry: EN388 Cut Level 0; Base: Level 1 (▲1); Advanced: Level 2 (▲2) | Base: Prevents minor cuts; Advanced: Protects against deeper cuts | Base insufficient for sharp blades; Advanced bulkier and less dexterous |
Compliance Certifications | EU-regulated industries | Industry: CE only; Base: CE + EPR France/Germany (▲1); Advanced: + (EC) No 1935/2004 (▲2) | Base: Meets EU packaging laws; Advanced: Food-safe compliance | Base lacks food-grade certification; Advanced may incur higher costs |
Dexterity & Flexibility | Fine motor tasks (assembly, electronics) | Industry: 10° bend resistance (ISO 13997); Base: 5° (▲1); Advanced: 0° (▲2) | Base: Improved hand movement; Advanced: Full flexibility | Base may grip poorly when wet; Advanced reduces material thickness slightly |
