Standard nitrile gloves are not designed to effectively dissipate static electricity, which can lead to serious accidents when used in environments with explosion risks. Therefore, it is crucial to have the correct knowledge and choose personal protective equipment (PPE) with the appropriate static electricity prevention features when handling liquids or chemicals in environments with explosion risks. This guideline provides recommendations for PPE that should be worn by workers in environments with potential explosion hazards (ATEX) or situations where the risk of static electricity increases.

Static electricity refers to the electric charge stored in an object and the phenomena caused by that charge. In manufacturing environments, static electricity can cause various problems, such as discharges leading to explosions, affecting the performance of electrical and electronic devices, and causing dust and debris to adhere to equipment and products. It is important to acquire correct knowledge about static electricity to prevent injuries in the workplace and to wear appropriate protective gear to avoid damaging products and equipment. 【Mechanical Protection × Static Electricity Prevention】 HyFlex11-819 　・EN-11360 certified 　・Ultra-thin coating allows for easy finger movement 　・Touchscreen compatible 【Chemical Protection × Static Electricity Prevention】 AlphaTec58-001 　・EN-11360 certified 　・High chemical protection according to EN 374-1:2016 standard (Type A) 【Disposable Chemical Protection × Static Electricity Prevention】 MICROFLEX94-242 　・EN-11360 certified 　・High chemical protection according to EN 374-1:2016 standard (Type A) 　・Black color that does not show oil, dirt, or stains 　・Touchscreen compatible

In manufacturing environments that handle flammable chemicals, the generation of static electricity poses an explosion risk. Therefore, it is very important to implement preventive measures, such as wearing protective products with static electricity prevention features. The standards for gloves against static electricity include EN1149 and EN16350 (which is the same as EN1149-2). Gloves that pass EN16350 have a specified surface resistance value against static electricity, making them safer. The 'MICROFLEX 94-242' is a glove that has passed EN16350, reducing the risk of static electricity discharge that could trigger spontaneous ignition in work environments with explosion risks. Additionally, it provides protection against various chemicals, does not show oil, dirt, or stains easily, and its black color makes flammable dust more noticeable. 【Features】 ■ Protection against static electricity discharge ■ Low vertical electrical resistance ■ Enhanced chemical protection ■ Touchscreen compatible ■ Improved visibility *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

The "MICROFLEX 94-242" is a glove designed to reduce the risk of fire, explosion, and damage caused by electrostatic discharge. It minimizes the risk of electrostatic discharge that could trigger spontaneous combustion in explosive atmospheres, featuring low vertical electrical resistance. Additionally, it provides soft and durable protection against various chemicals. Oil, dirt, and stains are not easily noticeable, and it comes in a black color that makes combustible dust more visible. 【Features】 ■ Reduces the risk of electrostatic discharge ■ Low vertical electrical resistance ■ High protection capabilities ■ Touchscreen compatible ■ Improved visibility *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

In manufacturing environments that handle flammable chemicals, the generation of static electricity poses a risk of fire and explosion. Therefore, it is extremely important to implement preventive measures, such as wearing protective products with static electricity prevention features. MICROFLEX 94-242 and AlphaTec 58-001 are chemical-resistant gloves that have passed the EN16350 test for measuring the vertical electrical resistance of gloves, and they can reduce the accumulation of static charges that may cause spontaneous ignition in environments with explosion risks. 【Static Electricity Prevention Chemical-Resistant Disposable Gloves - MICROFLEX 94-242】 Protection against electrostatic discharge, excellent chemical protection, touchscreen compatibility, high visibility with a black color. 【Static Electricity Prevention Chemical Protective Gloves - AlphaTec 58-001】 Excellent anti-static properties, puncture resistance, abrasion resistance, enhanced grip with textured palm, easy to put on and take off design. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

Ansell supports the safety of over 10 million people in more than 100 countries around the world, accumulating extensive experience, transparent data, and know-how through the provision of protective gloves, protective clothing, and solutions in various environments. Based on this, we anticipate our customers' needs and provide products and services that predict, prevent, and protect against risks in the workplace, thereby supporting the realization of a safe and sustainable work environment. In addition to Ansell's core brands such as HyFlex, BioClean, MICROFLEX, and AlphaTec, we will acquire Kimberly-Clark's personal protective equipment (KCPPE) business in 2024, adding the KIMTECH brand to our lineup. This will enable us to respond to the increasingly diverse and sophisticated needs of customers in industries such as pharmaceuticals and semiconductor manufacturing.

We, Ansell, are a manufacturer of personal protective equipment with over 130 years of history, operating in more than 100 countries worldwide. This year, we will be exhibiting at the Green Cross Exhibition, the largest domestic trade show for personal protective equipment, held in September. We will showcase our tool "Ansell Guardian Chemical," which allows for the selection of appropriate chemical protective gloves based on over 50,000 types of permeation data, as well as more than 50 types of permeation-resistant glove products. Additionally, we will demonstrate products that address secondary risks in manufacturing environments, such as cuts and static electricity. We invite you to visit us and experience our products firsthand. We will also introduce new chemical protective gloves that can handle a wide range of chemicals with just one glove. Visitors will receive either the "HyFlex 11-840 Work Gloves," which is the number one popular choice in the European machinery industry (according to our sales data), or the permeation-resistant gloves "TouchNTuff 92-600," which can handle a wide range of chemicals. *Quantities are limited. *Details are subject to change.

In industries such as electronics, medical device manufacturing, clean rooms, automotive, and aerospace, even the smallest static electricity can pose a significant threat. Therefore, it is important to correctly select and use ESD gloves that can dissipate static electricity to protect the safety of workers and products. This safety briefing, "The Importance of Static Dissipative Gloves in ATEX Environments," summarizes static electricity discharge and its risks. Let’s ensure we understand it correctly and make appropriate product selections for static electricity measures.
