At PROTECFINA
we opted for quality and strict compliance with standards when drafting the technical specifications for our products and during their manufacturing process.
Due to economic pressure, the market trend is leaning towards the use of protective gloves for minor tasks such as cleaning, nursing, housework, etc… carried out for example in creches, retirement homes, nursing homes or other healthcare establishments, which is perfectly understandable.
Our gloves are suitable for these sectors of activity.
