This Standard defines requirements for gloves conceived to protect users against chemical products and/or micro-organisms. The Standard does not specify requirements for mechanical protection levels. All gloves are Category 3.
If the glove complies with standards defined by tests of EN 374-2 and EN 374-3, then it must be labelled with the following pictograph
Otherwise, it will carry this pictograph
