WHAT IS CUT5?


Effective PPE and workwear is an essential in many industrial environments. At Vtrust we always strive to offer you the maximum safety protection without compromise.

You may have heard about our Cut master serious, but what exactly is Cut5?

Cut5 refers to the level of cut resistance a product has. Level 5 providing the highest protection, level 1 being the lowest. The most widely used and latest standard to test gloves is EN388:2016+A1:2018. Along with cut resistance, EN388:2016+A1:2018 also tests levels of protection against abrasion, tear and puncture.

The Vtrust Cut5 range includes body and arm protection in addition to a wide variety of gloves. All of which are made with Cut5 fibre and designed and tested to level 5 cut resistance. Cut5 fibre is a high performance composite fibre which is engineered from core material produced in Germany. Cut5 core material has been developed over many years as a superior reinforcement material for the most demanding industries in the world. After extensive R&D efforts, it is available for your very own personal safety protection.
