What is HandCare®?

We spare no effort in making sure that the ATG® glove experience is a gentle one, both for the user’s skin and for the planet. HandCare by ATG® incorporates a growing number of elements, and embodies our belief that a high performance glove should also be skin friendly from the moment you come into contact with them. All our gloves are dermatologically accredited by the Skin Health Alliance and are post washed prior to packaging enabling us to guarantee them “fresh out of the pack” as certified by Oeko-Tex®. All ingredients used in the production of our gloves are according to REACH and none of our product contains SVHC.

What does 18 gauge mean? What gauge are your gloves and does this matter to me?

Gauge refers to the knitting process and resultant characteristics of the glove liner. Typically the higher the gauge number, the more dense the fabric, but the fabric is also typically thinner. This means 18  gauge gloves would typically be thinner, with a denser liner than a 15 gauge glove. However, there are a number of other features and benefits apart from  gauge that are helpful in choosing a glove.

Do you have a puncture resistant, heat resistant, cut resistant glove that is breathable and oil resistant?

YES, we could make a glove combining all of those characteristics however it would have one major drawback: COMFORT. Glove selection often involves the prioritisation of needs and accepting some trade-offs to find the most suitable glove for the work being done. We offer four glove brands to meet the needs of glove wearers.

How breathable is the MaxiCut® 34-470. It seems thick?

The MaxiCut® range incorporates AIRtech® technology, meaning it features 360 degree full hand breathability.
