Why EN388 Matters

In European workplaces, EN388 certification separates true protective gloves from basic work gloves. At Qingdao Meiji Labor Products Co., Ltd, we engineer gloves that don't just meet this standard - we redefine its performance limits through advanced material science.

Section 1: The EN388:2016 Standard Decoded

The 6 Key Performance Indicators

1.Wear resistance  ——(1-4)

2.Cutting resistance (Coup test)  —— (1-5)

3.Tear resistant —— (1-4)

4.Puncture resistant  ——(1-4)

5.Cutting resistance(TDM test) —— (A-F)

6.Impact protection —— (P,F,X)

Section 2: Where Most EN388 Gloves Fail

The 5 Critical Oversights

1.Dynamic vs Static Testing

* Real-world cuts often involve movement

2.Edge Sharpness Variations

3.Wet Condition Performance

* Standard ratings don't account for moisture

4.Long-Term Wear Effects

* 200+ bend cycles degrade protection

5.Multi-Hazard Environments

* Most EN388 gloves ignore chemical risks

Qingdao Meiji Solution: TotalGuard testing protocol supplements EN388 with:

✔ 45° angle cuts

✔ Oil immersion trials

✔ 500-cycle durability tests

Section 3: Qingdao Meiji's EN388+ Innovations

Beyond Compliance Features

✔ SmartWear Indicators - Visual fiber integrity alerts

✔ ZoneDefense  - Strategic reinforcement mapping

✔ GripLock  - Maintains EN388 abrasion with enhanced traction
