EN 511: COLD PROTECTION GLOVES
In cold it is extra important to protect hands from cold burn. According to EN 511 standard the are typically designed to protect hands against convective and contact cold up to -50 degree Celsius. This standard mainly is mainly conducted to find the convective cold resistance, contact cold resistance and water permeability of the gloves.

Burning Behavior Test (After Flame and Glow Time)
In this test the ignition time and how long the material glow or burns after it catches fire is measured. This also measures the time taken by material to extinguish after being vertically ignited using four performance levels. In case, after 15 seconds of ignition if the seam comes apart, the gloves fails the test.

Performance level	0	1	2	3	4
Convective cold	L<0.10	0.10	0.15	0.22	0.30
Contact cold	R<0.025	0.025	0.050	0.100	0.150
