Scilabub Frosters Extreme Gloves from WolfLabs
Laboratories handling ultra-cold materials such as liquid nitrogen require reliable personal protective equipment to ensure safety and compliance. The Scilabub Frosters Extreme gloves are designed for extreme cryogenic protection, providing laboratory professionals with thermal insulation, dexterity and durability for handling low-temperature substances safely. Ideal for research, clinical, educational, and industrial laboratory environments, these gloves allow users to work confidently with hazardous cryogenic samples while maintaining dexterity for precise tasks.

Features & Benefits
- Extreme cryogenic temperature protection - Engineered for use with temperatures down to –196 °C, offering superior protection when handling liquid nitrogen and other cryogenic liquids.
- Multi-layer insulation system - Combines a thermal insulating core, moisture-resistant outer layer and soft inner lining, delivering safety without compromising comfort or dexterity.
- Ergonomic design for dexterity - Pre-curved fingers and flexible construction allow safe handling of vials, tubes and cryogenic containers, reducing fatigue during extended laboratory use.
- Splash-resistant and durable outer layer - The outer material repels cryogenic liquids, protecting users from accidental splashes and enhancing the longevity of the gloves in demanding lab environments.
- Certified for laboratory safety - Tested to meet EN511 (cold protection) and EN388 (mechanical protection) standards, giving laboratories confidence in compliance and user safety.

Introduction
Scilabub Frosters series of gloves for cryostorage equipment have been added. Scilabub's Frosters Gloves have been specially developed for the handling of very cold objects. Typically they are used for handling objects stored in the vapour phase of liquid nitrogen (ranging from -120oC to –190oC). At actual liquid nitrogen temperature there is some stiffening of the material, but it still remains flexible enough for use. The gloves should not be immersed in liquid nitrogen. They are also very useful for other cold situations such as with freezers, cold rooms, 'dry ice' and microtomes.

Features and benefits
- For use with materials stored with liquid nitrogen and in other very cold environments
- Superb insulation needs less thickness giving more dexterity
- Synthetic fibre outer for flexibility
- Water resistant
- Four hand sizes and three lengths, all extending over wrist
- Competitively priced

Introduction
New Nomex and Frosters cryostorage gloves from Scilabub have been added. Scilabubs range of gloves are designed to offer highly effective protection against high temperatures yet still provide comfort and outstanding durability. The material used in the construction of their gloves is Nomex, an aromatic polyamide whose outstanding features led to its use in astronauts suits. Infact Scilabubs gloves are very similar to those in regular use by Grand Prix drivers. Scilabub’s Frosters Waterproof Gloves have been specially developed for the handling of very cold objects. Typically they are used for handling objects stored in the vapour phase of liquid nitrogen (ranging from –120°C to –190°C).

Features and benefits
Nomex
- Heat resistant
- Low thermal conductivity
- Asbestos free
- Double thickness
- Knitted fabric for comfort
- Does not shrink or melt
- Unaffected by washing
- Hard wearing
- Good chemical resistance
- Suitable for cold use too
- Available in three hand sizes and two lengths
