Polyco FAQs

Is Polyco suitable for professional use?

Absolutely. Polyco is regarded as one of the UK's leading safety glove manufacturers, with over 30 years of experience producing hand protection for professional trades. Their gloves consistently meet British and European safety standards, and the brand enjoys strong loyalty among tradespeople who value the balance of protection, durability, and comfort.

What do the cut resistance ratings mean on Polyco gloves?

Polyco gloves display EN388 ratings indicating protection levels against mechanical risks. The cut resistance level (C1-C5 or newer A-F scale) shows how well the glove resists cutting hazards, with higher ratings providing greater protection. C3 offers good general-purpose cut resistance suitable for most construction and assembly work, whilst C5 provides superior protection for higher-risk applications involving sharp materials and tools.

How long do Polyco work gloves typically last?

Lifespan varies depending on usage intensity and working conditions, but Polyco gloves are designed for professional durability. The Polyflex range typically lasts significantly longer than budget alternatives due to reinforced coatings and quality construction. Users report that Polyco gloves often remain protective and functional for several weeks of daily professional use, representing excellent value compared to cheaper gloves requiring frequent replacement.
