How many times can I wash these gloves?
The gloves are washable up to 5 times at 40 degrees Celsius.

How important is the correct size?
Wearing the correct size is crucial for both comfort and performance. A proper fit ensures warmth is maintained and allows for necessary dexterity for tasks.
Can I use these gloves for other types of work, like construction?
While durable, these gloves are specifically optimized for cold environments. For construction tasks involving potential impact, abrasion, or heavy machinery, specialized work gloves are recommended.
What industries are these gloves best suited for?
They are ideal for industries such as local authorities, logistics, waste collection, road maintenance, public park maintenance, and order preparation in cold conditions.
Troubleshooting
Reduced grip in very wet conditions.
While the nitrile coating offers good grip, extremely wet or icy surfaces may still present challenges. Ensure gloves are dry before use for optimal grip.
Hands feel too warm during moderate cold.
These gloves are designed for extreme cold. For milder temperatures, consider a lighter-weight glove to prevent overheating and excessive sweating.
Gloves show signs of wear after multiple washes.
Adhere strictly to the 5-wash limit and the 40°C washing temperature. Excessive washing or higher temperatures can degrade the material and insulation.
