With touchscreen technology rapidly entering the work world, Ironclad^® Performance Wear – available at Brighton Best International UK Ltd (BBI) – has introduced the Command™  Series line of work gloves, which it says is the first glove line to utilise embedded nanoparticle technology into the glove palm.

Created after Ironclad^® realised there was a significant gap in work glove technology, the Command™ Series line of work gloves stops workers from having to remove their gloves to enter data or capture images on phones, tablets or data entry devices – increasing their productivity and hand safety. 

“Our Command™ technology incorporates touchscreen into the very fibres of our gloves. By fusing conductive nanoparticles into the fibres of the synthetic leather, we are able to ensure that not only is conductivity present throughout the entirety of the material, but also that the material stays conductive throughout its entire lifespan. Our touchscreen won’t wear off, rip off, or wash off like typical touchscreen work gloves,” comments BBI. “We employ a similar technology in out knit gloves. Conductive nanoparticles are introduced at the beginning of production – ensuring that there is a consistent, homogeneous mix during the coating process. This makes sure that for as long as the glove is useful, it will remain fully touchscreen compatible.”

To determine the effectiveness of the technology, Ironclad^® performed a series of comparison tests that pitted the Command™ touchscreen materials against several other conductive materials, including several competitors’ gloves, non-touchscreen gloves, metal, and even the human hand without a glove. “It was immediately noticeable that the Command™ gloves not only perform exponentially better than the competition, they are also significantly more conductive than the human hand itself. Command™ technology is designed to ensure that you have a high performing and durable work glove that meets all the demands you can throw at it,” states BBI.
