Preventive Heat Protection for Fingers and Hands – Effectively Prevent Burns in Industrial Workplaces

Heat-Resistant Gloves and Temperature Warning Indicators from KAGER Improve Workplace Safety

In high-temperature industrial environments, burns to hands and fingers remain one of the most common workplace injuries. Foundries, glass manufacturing plants, refractory industries, metal processing facilities and thermal processing operations all require reliable heat protection solutions.

KAGER offers a comprehensive range of heat-resistant safety gloves and temperature warning indicators designed to improve occupational safety and reduce the risk of burns.

Heat-Resistant Safety Gloves for Extreme Temperatures

KAGER’s protective gloves comply with major international standards and provide protection against:

  • Contact heat
  • Radiant heat
  • Abrasion
  • Cut hazards
  • Mechanical stress

Manufactured from advanced materials such as:

  • Kevlar®
  • Preox-Aramid®
  • PBI®
  • High-temperature glass fibers
  • Split leather
  • Silicone coatings
  • Aluminum coatings

Depending on the model, protection levels can reach up to 1,100°C contact heat and 1,000°C radiant heat.

Temperature Warning Labels for Hot Surfaces

A highly effective preventive safety measure is the use of visual temperature warning indicators.

Hot-Hand Indicator

The Hot-Hand indicator remains black below 50°C.

Once the temperature exceeds this limit, the warning message “HOT” and a hand-over-flames symbol appear in bright red.

Large Traffic Light Indicator

The Large Traffic Light indicator uses an intuitive traffic-light system:

🟢 Green: Below 50°C

🟡 Yellow: Between 50°C and 70°C

🔴 Red: Above 70°C

This allows employees to instantly recognize potential burn hazards.

Reversible and Sustainable Temperature Monitoring

Both indicators are reversible and reusable.

When the surface cools down, they automatically return to their original state, providing long-term visual safety monitoring.
