Most advanced nitrile and latex cleanroom gloves on the market.
SHIELDskin XTREME™ cleanroom gloves are branded very differently to many of our competitors.
Whereas other glove manufacturers may wish to brand their gloves as ISO class 4 or ISO Class 5, we challenge this paradigm and would ask how classifications for airborne particulates relate to gloves. In reality there are no internationally recognised specification limits that would determine whether a cleanroom glove is ISO Class 4 or ISO Class 5 compatible. Accordingly it is left to users to decide what is suitable for their process.
From the following simple branding concept, the user can very clearly see that washing in deionised water provides the essential differentiation in terms of cleanliness properties.
With the SHIELD Scientific product brand code, pre-selecting the right gloves becomes now an easy exercise!

REGULATORY COMPLIANCE
Whilst process protection is typically the main concern, increasingly users are recognising that there is often an equal need for personal protection of employees from chemicals and biohazards. The responsibilities of the employer are outlined in the PPE at Work Directive 89/656/EEC which is the enshrined in local legislation throughout the European Union (EU). To address this need, all SHIELDskin XTREME gloves are registered according to the PPE Directive 89/686/EEC.
EXCELLENCE IN ASEPTIC PROCESSING and BIO CONTAMINATION CONTROL
SHIELD Scientific products provide superior process and personal protection from liquid penetration by micro-organisms (EN 374-2:2014) and viruses (ISO 16604:2004 Procedure B and ASTM F1671-97b). Acceptable Quality Level (AQL) is a crucial parameter for determining barrier properties. An AQL of 0.65 according to EN 374-2:2014 Level 3 represents over 50% less defects than comparable sterile gloves on the market.
