Globus I-CON Glove System provides enhanced chemical protection for workers in the cleaning and hygiene sector.
The I-CON glove system, from hand protection specialist Globus, not only protects workers’ hands against the most common chemicals and substances found in contract cleaning but also helps prevent contact contamination from bacteria, viruses, pathogens, and vaccines that may be encountered.
Unlike commonly used gloves made from vinyl or latex that do not necessarily meet the levels of performance required under EN legislation, all of the gloves within the I-CON system are manufactured exclusively from nitrile.
Every glove is CAT III certified in accordance with the EN374-1 chemical resistance standard whilst cross contamination threats in infection control areas are also reduced significantly thanks to the I-CON colour system - with individual coloured gloves designated for specific work areas.
There are eight I-CON™ system gloves - four single-use, four re-usable – all manufactured from 100% nitrile, which follow the British Institute of Cleaning Science (BICSc) approved and adopted colour-coded system for infection control using:
• Red for sanitary appliances and washroom areas
• Yellow for clinical, treatment and isolation areas
• Green for general food and drink areas
• Blue for general areas excluding washrooms and clinical areas
