FIREMAN'S SAFETY GLOVES, MED APPROVED - SEABEE BRAND

Seabee Brand MED-Approved Fireman’s Safety Gloves provide robust hand protection for firefighters, emergency responders, and maritime crews. Designed to meet stringent Marine Equipment Directive (MED) standards, these gloves offer both thermal insulation and flame resistance for use in the harshest environments, including ships, offshore platforms, and high-risk industrial facilities.

Key Features & Benefits

1. MED Certification

   • Compliant with Marine Equipment Directive requirements, ensuring suitability for marine firefighting and emergency response.

2. Heat & Flame Resistance

   • Constructed from premium aramid-based materials (e.g., Kevlar®, Nomex®, or similar blends) that withstand extreme temperatures and protect against open flame.

3. Multi-Layer Protection

   • Usually features an outer flame-retardant shell, a moisture/chemical barrier, and a thermal liner for comprehensive defense against heat, liquids, and mechanical hazards.

4. Enhanced Grip & Dexterity

   • Reinforced palms or grip surfaces enable a secure hold on hoses, tools, and equipment—even in wet or slippery conditions.

5. Ergonomic Design

   • Pre-curved fingers and flexible stitching reduce hand fatigue while enabling precise handling of rescue gear.

6. Rugged Stitching & Reinforcements

   • Seams sewn with heat-resistant thread for added durability and longer service life.

7. Wrist & Forearm Coverage

   • Extended cuffs or gauntlets protect the wearer’s wrists and lower forearms from debris and heat exposure.
