Glass, metal & industrial safety

Cut-resistant clothing developed around sharp-edge work.

NamNox Pro develops protective clothing routes for glass handling, sheet-metal fabrication and industrial tasks where sharp edges, burrs and material movement create laceration risks.

Understanding industrial exposure

The hazard changes with the material, task and wearer.

Handling sheet glass, metal sections, sharp components or unfinished edges can expose workers to cuts in different ways. The appropriate garment depends on the material, edge condition, handling method, machinery, body position, existing PPE and frequency of exposure.

NamNox Pro uses the workplace risk assessment as the starting point. We then review garment coverage, textile options, construction and the performance claim required for the finished product.

01 · GLASS HANDLING

Glass manufacturing & processing

Garment routes for handling, moving, cutting and processing glass where sharp edges can expose the upper or lower body.

02 · METALWORK

Sheet metal & fabrication

Protection concepts for forming, handling, fabrication and assembly tasks involving burrs, sharp profiles and cut edges.

03 · INDUSTRIAL OPERATIONS

Sharp-edge handling

Configurable workwear for manufacturing, warehousing, recycling and specialist material-handling applications.

Coverage assessment

Protect the areas exposed by the task.

Full-garment reinforcement is not always the most practical route. Coverage can be configured around the worker’s movements and the body areas that approach, support or carry sharp materials.

Cut resistance does not make clothing cut-proof. Performance varies by material, construction, condition and test method. Garment selection should form part of a wider control system that includes safe processes, training and appropriate PPE.
Forearms & sleevesCoverage for lifting, carrying and reaching near sharp sheet or component edges.
Torso & abdomenShirts, jackets, aprons and panels configured around front-body exposure.
Shoulders & upper armsProtection considered where long or large materials are carried close to the body.
Hands & wristsExtended-cuff and glove concepts balanced against grip and dexterity requirements.
Thighs & lower legsTrousers, chaps and protective layers for lower-body handling exposure.
Seams & closuresConstruction details reviewed so the garment works as a complete wearable system.

Garment and coverage routes

Workwear configured around the operation.

Choose an existing garment route or ask NamNox Pro to develop protective workwear around your task, workforce and required coverage.

Shirts, sweatshirts & jackets

Upper-body workwear configurable around the torso, shoulders, sleeves and neckline while retaining practical movement.

CutX™ development platform

A complete garment system—not only a textile rating.

CutX™ organises our material-selection and garment-development approach around sharp-edge exposure. The finished route considers coverage, seams, closures, fit, mobility, durability, laundering and the intended claim.

MATERIAL

Hazard-led textile selection

Textile options reviewed against the edge, task, exposure and comfort requirements.

GARMENT

Coverage and construction

Protection zones, patterns, seams and closures considered as one wearable system.

EVIDENCE

Testing aligned to claims

Test methods and documentation matched to the intended market and product statement.

Buyer questions

Common procurement considerations.

Is cut-resistant clothing cut-proof?

No. Cut-resistant textiles reduce risk under defined conditions; no wearable garment should be described as cut-proof.

Which protection level do we need?

The answer depends on the hazard assessment, applicable test method, task, required coverage and acceptable trade-offs in weight, comfort and movement.

Can you supply workforce quantities?

Yes. NamNox Pro supports organisation-wide sizing, bulk quantities, branding and repeat manufacturing.

Can brands develop private-label products?

Yes. We support OEM/ODM development, sampling, labels, packaging and production for suitable B2B programmes.
