    The best glove solution to protect against chemicals in the laboratory

    Information

    SHIELDskin CHEM™ gloves are specially developed to protect users from chemical hazards without compromising dexterity and comfort.

    SHIELDskin CHEM™ are multi-layered gloves offering higher barrier effectiveness against liquid chemicals in the laboratory. They meet the ISO 374-1:2016+A1:2018 norm requirements and they meet the high expectation of users for comfort & dexterity. SHIELDskin CHEM™ laboratory gloves have also been tested for permeation to potentially hazardous cancer chemotherapy drugs under conditions of continuous contact.SHIELDskin CHEM™ gloves are latex-free and therefore the risk of a type I allergy (or type I hypersensitivity) to latex protein is completely eliminated.

    Chemical protection

    SHIELDskin CHEM™ safety gloves are Type A single-use gloves. They resist to chemical permeation achieving a minimum breakthrough time of at least 30 minutes against 6 out of the 18 chemicals listed in ISO 374-1:2016+A1:2018 (tested according to EN 16523-1:2015+A1:2018). With its 0.31 mm/12.2 mil thickness and 300 mm/ 11.8" length, SHIELDskin CHEM™ laboratory gloves confirm that: the thicker and longer the glove, the better you will be protected!

    Biohazards protection

    SHIELDskin CHEM™ gloves are also tested to demonstrate compliance with ISO 374-5:2016 for protection against biohazard. SHIELDskin CHEM™ safety gloves have an Acceptable Quality Level (AQL) of 0.25 according to ISO 374-2:2019 Level 3. This is the highest level of protection, thereby giving users an increased level of confidence in their most sensitive biosafety procedures.

    twinSHIELD™ technology

    With its neoprene/nitrile formulation and the double-dipping process known as twinSHIELD™ technology, SHIELDskin CHEM™ safety gloves have been developed to protect users from chemical hazards, without compromising dexterity and comfort. A red outer colour helps identifying the level of risk faced and differentiates from the other SHIELD Scientific gloves. The inner white film is extremely soft for the skin and facilitates the donning of the nitrile glove.

    Multi-layered gloves offering protection against chemicals in the laboratory

  • SHIELDskin CHEM™gloves are registered according to the PPE Regulation (EU) 2016/425 and MDR Regulation (EU) 2017/745.
  • Type A gloves for chemical protection in the laboratory according to ISO 374-1:2016+A1:2018.
  • AQL 0,25 for barrier effectiveness (according ISO 374-2:2019) offering a high level of protection in biosafety procedures.
  • 0,31 mm palm thickness and 300 mm length for a better hand and forearm protection against chemicals splashes.
  • Double layered Neoprene/ Nitrile glove for better protection and comfort.
  • Category III PPE gloves:

    SHIELDskin CHEM™ safety gloves are Category III PPE according to the PPE Regulation (EU) 2016/425 and as such are designed against the mortal and the irreversible risks. Only Category III PPE gloves are likely to offer laboratory personnel the necessary level of protection.
