'Frosters' cryogenic gloves, gauntlets & suitsSizes : Small, Medium, Large
'Frosters' range of gloves have been specially developed for the handling of very cold objects. Typically they are used for handling objects stored in the vapour stage of liquid nitrogen (ranging from -120°C to 190°C). At actual liquid nitrogen temperature there is some stiffening of the material, but it still remains flexible enough for use. These gloves are also very useful for other situations where low temperatures are an issue such as storage freezers, cold rooms, the handling of 'dry ice' and microtomes. The 'frosters' range is available in three styles; mid-arm, elbow and shoulder length and in small, medium and large sizes. Manufactured to European standard EN511
Frosters glove range are made in the UK to
meet the requirements of the European Standard EN 407.
'Frosters' cryo suits have been specially developed to provide protection and comfort while under continuous use in the extreme environment of the cold room. The special outer layer is waterproof (resistant to condensation) yet remains breathable so as not to become clammy, while the high efficiency insulation reduces excessive bulk and therefore provides greater mobility. Frosters cryo suits are in two parts, a 'bib and brace' overall and an over jacket. The overalls have long adjustable shoulder straps with Velcro fastening and the waist is elasticated. The jacket has a front central Velcro fastening strip with additional Velcro fastenings on the cuffs and features a useful inside pocket. Cryo suits are manufactured in the UK from the same material as our frosters range of gloves and offer very similar properties. The suits are of three layers but the inner layer overall omits the insulating layer above the waist (covered by the overlapping jacket) for comfort and to reduce bulk. The outer layer of Royal Blue, woven polyamide has a waterproof coating to resist condensed water on cold surfaces yet it remains permeable to water vapour so that there is no clammy condensation inside. However, it should be noted that the stitch holes are not sealed (to reduce bulk) and whilst this could allow liquid ingress, it has not been found a problem in normal use. The middle layer is of special polyolefin/polyester micro-fibre, which is almost twice as effective in thermal insulation as a similar thickness of 'down'. This minimises heat transfer without being so thick as to be cumbersome. The inner layer is of cotton for comfortable wear. The jacket has a hanging loop inside the collar, so that they may be hung in a convenient place away from pools of condensation when not in use. Jacket Sizes

Cryo-Gloves® Water-Resistant
Water-Resistant: The outer shell is a two layer composite material consisting of nylon Taslan® treated with a durable water repellent finish as the outer layer, and a waterproof, breathable membrane bonded to the inner surface that allows water vapor to escape from within the glove, but is impervious to water penetrating from the outside. Although the outer shell material is 100% waterproof, the seams are not sealed in order to maintain maximum flexibility and dexterity. This allows for fluids to penetrate the outer shell through the seams if the glove is immersed in liquid. For this reason the gloves are rated as water repellent.
AVAILABLE STYLES:
AVAILABLE SIZES: S, M, L, XL Cryo-Gloves® are multi layer insulated gloves designed to provide protection to the hands and arms from the hazards encountered when working with ultra cold. They are lightweight, flexible, durable, clean, allow for excellent dexterity, are very comfortable to wear for extended periods, and are extremely warm. The insulating layers, or inner glove, are the same in both the Water Resistant and Waterproof Cryo-Gloves®. This consists of three layers: two thin layers of insulation material which are bonded together only at the edges of each piece, thereby enabling more insulating air to be trapped without adding additional weight or bulk, and the lining material, which also has a high insulating value, and is specially designed to wick moisture away from the skin.
Cryo-Gloves® 100% Waterproof
100% Waterproof: The outer shell is the same construction as in the water resistant version, followed by an additional component layer between the outer shell and the insulation layers. This consists of a thin, seamless, 100% waterproof inner protective glove, which adds an extra layer of protection with a minimum of added bulk or loss of dexterity.

Cryo-Industrial Gloves 100% Waterproof
Cryo-Industrial Gloves® were designed for use in demanding environments, where durability and high abrasion resistance are required in a cryogenic glove. These gloves offer the same level of protection from ultra cold temperatures as our standard Cryo-Gloves®, in a rugged outer shell. The outer shell is made from nylon Cordura®, with a 100% waterproof, breathable membrane laminated to the underside. The palm and thumb area is made from an extremely tough and abrasion resistant material made of a nylon Cordura substrate, impregnated with a proprietary polymer-neoprene compound. The insulating layers, or inner glove, are constructed of three layers: two layers of insulation, and the lining material, which has a high insulating value, and is specially designed to wick moisture away from the skin. Between the outer shell and the insulating layers is a 100% waterproof, breathable, seamless inner protective glove. This layer acts as a barrier, stopping any moisture that penetrates the outer shell from reaching the insulating layers. Cryo-Industrial® Gloves are 100% waterproof, and are available in two styles, each featuring a six layer construction. AVAILABLE STYLES:
Cryo-Aprons 100% Waterproof
Cryo-Aprons® are multi layer insulated aprons designed to provide protection to the torso and legs from contact with ultra cold surfaces in cryogenic atmospheres, and from splashes. The outer surface of the Cryo-Apron® is a two layer material consisting of nylon Taslan®, treated with a durable water repellent finish, and a waterproof, breathable membrane laminated to the inner surface. The apron is insulated with a single layer of insulation that has flexible non-woven scrim bonded to each side. The backing material is a second layer of nylon Taslan which is also treated with a durable water repellent finish. Cryo-Aprons® are fitted with adjustable straps and quick release buckles at the neck and waist. All Cryo-Aprons® are 24 inches wide, and are available in three lengths:
Distinct warning label identifying hazard of Liquid Nitrogen. Supplied with adhesive pads. 200 x 150mm
The workshops are constructed, with this experience in mind, to be solution based, the delegates concentrating their efforts in finding solutions to working safely with gases. |
