How to Measure Your Hand
Use a tape measure to get the length(as figure), and check with the chart to get the right size.
Please keep in mind that this is theoretical data. The size may vary with each individual.

European Standards for Protective Gloves
EN 388 (European standard used to evaluate mechanical risks for hand protection) : 2003
The protection, given by gloves, against mechanical hazards is expressed by a pictogram followed by four numbers (performance levels), each representing test performance against a specific hazard.
This standard is used to test the ability for a glove's fabric to resist abrasion, blade cuts, tearing and puncture by a pointed object, as well as volume resistivity.
A Abrasion:Based on the number of cycles required to abrade through the sample glove.
B Cut:Based on the number of cycles required to cut through the sample at a constant speed.
C Tear:Based on the amount of dorce required to tear the sample.
D Punctures:Base on the amount of force required to pierce the sample with a standard sized point.
EN388 Standard applies different methods (as above) to express the performance levels. The higher the number, the better the glove.
Please note that all tests are performed under controlled laboratory. These ratings are for reference only, which allow you to compare from one pair to another, and understand which gloves best meet your needs.
The four letters ”A”, “B”, “C”, and “D” on the figure respectively represent the four basic factors for the performance level. Each factor indicates on a scale from 1 to 4. The higher the better corresponding performance.

The protection, given by gloves, against mechanical hazards is expressed by a pictogram followed by four numbers (performance levels), each representing test performance against a specific hazard.
This standard is used to test the ability for a glove's fabric to resist abrasion, blade cuts, tearing and puncture by a pointed object, as well as volume resistivity.
A Abrasion:Based on the number of cycles required to abrade through the sample glove.
C Tear:Based on the amount of dorce required to tear the sample.
D Punctures:Base on the amount of force required to pierce the sample with a standard sized point.
☐ Cut:Based on the number of cycles required to cut through the sample at a constant speed.
The four letters ”A”, “C”, “D” and "☐" on the figure respectively represent the four basic factors for the performance level. Each factor indicates on a scale from 1 to 4. The higher the better corresponding performance.
CE(Conformity Europe) Marking
PPE(Personal Protective Equipment) Directive:89/686/EEC
Protective gloves can be divided into 3 categories, “Minimal” , “Intermediate”, and “Mortal”, depending on type and which risk or danger the gloves should protect against.
Based on the guidance of 89/686/EEC, the risk categories should be set up to choose the suitable gloves.
Category I:Minimal
Gloves of simple design, such as household gloves used for clenaing, are for minimal risks only. Therefore, the manufacturers are allowed to test and authenticate on their own. (Third party testing and authentication is not required.)
Category II:Intermediate
Gloves, which is not classified as minimal or irreversible, are for intermediate risk. For example, general handling gloves requiring good puncture, cut, abrasion performance must be subjected to independent testing and certification by a Notified Body, whom then issues a CE marking showing the gloves protective capacities.
Without the certification, the gloves are not allowed to sell in the market. Every certified authority has its own certification number. This number will be printed on the corresponding product’s instruction with the name and address of the authority.
Category III:Mortal
Gloves of complex design, which must be tested and authorized by certified authority, for irreversible or mortal risks. In addition, the gloves in this category must be independently tested for the manufacturer’s quality control policy to make sure the quality remain the same. The authority that assesses the evaluation will have a ID number, which is required to indicate with the CE marking.
