Working gloves

Work gloves are not an alternative, they are mandatory Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) due to the specific risks faced by professionals. A very obvious example is that of welders, who require specialised gloves to protect them from high temperatures, sparks and possible burns. The work of these professionals therefore requires gloves made of heat-resistant materials such as leather or flame-retardant fibres, essential to ensure safety and performance in activities where exposure to risks is constant and significant. EN 12477:2001+A1:2005 combines the requirements of EN 388 for mechanical resistance and EN 407 for flame and heat resistance. Thereafter, welding gloves are classified as Type A with more general characteristics. Mostly recommended for metal inert gas (MIG) welding, where higher heat resistance and lower dexterity are required, so they are thicker. Or, Type B, which include models for more precise work.  Those professionals who need Type A gloves will now find 408PLUS by Juba, a black split cowhide leather glove for demanding work in contact heat, with lining on palm and back of hand for increased thermal properties. This Juba reference has a length of 36 cm and is made of 1,1mm/ 1,2mm thick leather. Any more details to know about this Juba reference? Excellent resistance to contact heat (level 3) up to 350º, excellent flame and splash resistance, reinforced palm for durability and seams with para-aramide thread.  Those interested in this new reference by Juba may purchase it from size 6 or XS to size 11 or XXL. All these features mean welders are not the only professionals who may use this new reference by Juba. 408PLUS is also an excellent ally for other tasks in which the user is exposed to thermal hazards, like industrial ovens or handling barbecue, charcoal or grill utensils. Available in cardboard for retail use as a barbecue glove.

The new KR4432 POWER CUT glove is now available for those who are exposed to cutting and abrasion risks in their daily work with glass or, more generally, for those who require thermal and cutting protection in heavy handling because they handle sharp or cutting surfaces. Juba has created this reference for glaziers, automotive professionals, those who work in the aluminium industry or the rubber and PVC industry. These professionals can count on this novelty by Juba, which provides the highest level of cut protection (F), according to EN388:2016. The latex coating on the palm and thumb provides excellent protection against abrasion, which translates into great durability and very good grip in dry and wet environments. It also provides thermal protection, withstanding temperatures up to 250°C for 15 seconds, without compromising the user's safety. Made with the innovative K-Rock® fibre, developed by Juba, this glove combines high cut resistance with exceptional durability. K-Rock® technology is based on a lightweight filament composed of a central core braided with engineered textile fibres, creating a highly effective fabric against cuts, snags and tears

When temperatures drop, maintaining the balance between comfort and mobility in the work environment can be a challenge. This is where work waistcoats are a very interesting option for their practicality and efficiency. This type of garment not only provides warmth, but also allows professionals to move freely, which is essential in many work sectors. Work waistcoats: perfect balance between comfort and freedom of movement Unlike a coat or a parka, waistcoats stand out for their light weight and ability to allow the wearer total freedom of movement in the arms and shoulders. A particularly important feature for professionals in sectors where precision or physical effort is required, such as construction, carpentry or logistics, to name but a few. By keeping the torso warm and protected, this workwear helps regulate body temperature, ensuring the worker remains comfortable even in cold days. Juba has redesigned the Dallas waistcoat to offer greater functionality, comfort and safety. It now features a more ergonomic design, stronger and lighter materials, and an improved pocket distribution system for easier access to tools and accessories. This redesign reflects the company's commitment to continuous improvement to meet the needs of the tradesmen. The importance of strategic pockets The multi-pocket design of this waistcoat is a great advantage for workers. Keeping tools, small materials or devices close at hand is key to improving efficiency on the job. In addition, its inside pocket with Velcro closure provides a secure space to store important personal items, such as a mobile phone or wallet. In this new version, the front design has been simplified by reducing the number of pockets. Previously this Juba reference had more compartments on the front, but now it has a cleaner, more streamlined design, perfect for those who want a garment that is both functional at work and suitable for off-duty use.  Style and functionality for the modern professional The redesign of this waistcoat not only makes it more functional, but also more aesthetically pleasing. Its modern, less cluttered appearance allows professionals to wear it comfortably outside the work environment. This duality is especially useful for freelancers who must multi-task throughout the day, transitioning from work to leisure without needing to change clothes. An ideal choice for multiple sectors The multi-pocket waistcoat is the perfect choice for a wide variety of trades: •    Construction workers who need strength and practicality. •    Transport and delivery workers who appreciate its light weight and freedom of movement. •    Maintenance technicians who require quick access to tools. •    Farmers and ranchers who work outdoors and need thermal protection. Details that make a difference Although the pockets on the front have been reduced, the waistcoat still offers practical and well-distributed storage: •    Three front pockets (two with Velcro closure and one with zip) and one inside pocket with Velcro, perfect for organising tools or personal belongings. •    Small reflective strips on the front pockets for visibility and safety. •    Front zip with puller for ease of use. •    Waist adjustment with hook and eye fasteners for a comfortable and adaptable fit. Durable materials and thermal comfort Made of polyester pongee with PVC, this waistcoat is resistant to wear and perfect for demanding work environments. Plus, its 100% polyester fleece lining and quilted interior provides warmth and comfort in cold weather or outdoors. Conclusion: much more than just a workwear item The multi-pocket work waistcoat is not only an essential tool in the workplace, but also a stylish and functional ally in everyday life. It provides warmth, practicality and freedom of movement, meeting the demands of modern professionals. This change responds to the needs of freelancers and professionals who, after a day's work, are looking for a more casual look for leisure activities or to carry out formalities without the need to change clothes.
