Engineered for Performance

The Portwest Thermal Grip Glove (A140) is a heavy-duty PPE solution engineered specifically for challenging cold environments. It combines mechanical protection with thermal insulation, certified under EN511 standards to effectively resist contact cold. The palm features a robust crinkle latex finish, which provides exceptional grip in both dry and damp conditions, making it ideal for outdoor construction or waste management where surfaces can be slippery. The glove also boasts a high tear resistance rating (Level 4 under EN388), ensuring longevity even when handling rough materials like brick, timber, or refuse. By providing staff with these thermal Gloves, businesses can prevent cold-induced numbness and loss of dexterity, thereby maintaining safety standards and work rate during winter months or in refrigerated logistics hubs.

Comfort & Workforce Utility

Working in the cold demands gear that keeps the heat in without restricting movement. The A140 utilises a 10-gauge acrylic liner, which is thicker than standard liners to trap warm air against the skin, providing a cosy, insulated feel. Despite this insulation, the glove retains a good degree of flexibility, allowing workers to perform manual tasks effectively. The elasticated knit wrist ensures a snug fit that prevents cold draughts and debris from entering the glove, while also keeping the glove securely in place. Designed for heavy-duty applications, the A140 reduces hand fatigue by offering a secure grip that requires less grip force from the wearer. It is the ultimate choice for outdoor maintenance teams, local authority workers, and anyone facing the elements.

Ideal Workplace Applications

• Cold store warehousing and refrigerated transport.
• Winter construction and outdoor maintenance.
• Refuse collection and local authority services.

Garment Utility & Care

A winter workwear staple that functions best as an unbranded safety asset due to the heavy texture. Ensure your team is fully protected against the elements by asking them to pair with Hi-Vis Coats & Coveralls for maximum visibility and warmth.
