MARIGOLD® INDUSTRIAL’S NEW CHEMICAL PERMEATION CHART OFFERS INVALUABLE SUPPORT
Ensuring workers are equipped with the right Hand and Arm Protection when working with chemicals is one of the biggest challenges to those with responsibility for ensuring health and safety in the workplace.
How suitable a glove material is to protect against specific chemicals and how long that glove material will offer protection before its protective qualities are broken down are critical pieces of information in the hand protection selection process yet can be extremely difficult to identify.

And thanks to the launch of Marigold® Industrial’s brand new Chemical Permeation Chart, identifying the performance and protective qualities of their gloves against more than 140 common chemicals has become a lot easier.
The new 12-page guide provides a simple to use and understand guide to selecting the right glove against a wide range of common workplace chemicals – giving key breakthrough time (BTT) information delivered in colour coded levels, ranging from level 1 – less than 10 minutes protection to level 6 offering over 480 minutes breakthrough time.
In addition to having performance data listed for over 20 of their key chemical protective gloves, the new chart also includes permeation performance and breakthrough time information for its disposable gloves, which have been tested against almost 100 workplace chemicals.
In addition to their common names, the chemicals listed throughout the new chart also have their Chemical Abstracts Service Registry (CAS) Number listed.
As well as in printed format, Marigold® Industrial’s new chemical permeation chart is also available in electronic format and an online recommendation guide is another useful tool they provide.
