Competenza, Protective gloves
Update 08.01.25
The ANSI/ISEA 105-2024 standard provides a comprehensive classification system for hand and arm protection, including gloves and sleeves, based on performance criteria essential for workplace safety. This updated standard ensures consistency and predictability in the selection of personal protective equipment (PPE), making it easier for manufacturers, employers, and safety professionals to choose the right protection for specific hazards.
This ANSI/ISEA 105-2024 standard introduces new marking requirements standardized in a pentagon-shaped pictogram with the representation of key protective properties, such as cut, puncture, and abrasion resistance.
The intention of this revision of the American glove standard is as follows: “This revision is linked to the evolution and development of materials, fibers, and design techniques that render these products increasingly effective and distinct from one another. This clarification was important to facilitate a more straightforward comparison of the performance levels of protective gloves and sleeves," explains Isabelle DUPUIS, Delta Plus North America Marketing Manager and ISEA board member.
The standard also incorporates specific language to demonstrate compliance with the designated performance classifications, aligning with ANSI/ISEA 125-2021 (American National Standard for Conformity Assessment of Safety and Personal Protective Equipment).
The impact on protective glove users is significant, as these changes offer a substantial advantage in terms of enhanced clarity for professionals.
This marking system is designed to assist users in evaluating the alignment between their gloves and their protection needs, considering the potential risks they are exposed to.
The new pictogram thus functions as a purchasing guide, offering a clear reference point for individuals seeking protective equipment.
“From an employer's perspective, this precise marking system ensures that their PPE is compliant with current regulations. In the United States, strict compliance with legal requirements is crucial for liability purposes and due to insurance companies actions, both of
which play a pivotal role in mandating the requirement of suitable personal protective equipment (PPE).”
"The revision was initiated and written by the Hand Protection Product Group of the International Safety Equipment Association (ISEA), of which Delta Plus is an active member". The Delta Plus Group is fully committed to these new standards, and our teams are working closely with certification bodies to ensure that our protective gloves meet the new requirements.
Delta Plus gloves with the new marking will be available for sale from early 2025.
Delta Plus adjusts its range of products in line with standards so as to combine compliance and safety. Learn how changes to the EN388 standard for gloves and the EN360 standard for fall-arrest products have contributed to the evolution of our safety products.
