Since 1910
What German engineering is to cars, Canadian engineering is to gloves.
Superior Glove was founded in 1910 in Acton, Ontario, sewing leather gloves for lumberjacks and railroad workers. Today it is a family-owned company with its own lab and spinning mill in Canada: instead of buying ordinary fabrics, it invents its own yarns.

Technology
Five fiber families, one engineering approach
TenActiv™: TenActiv Pro™ · TenActiv Max™
A fishing line made of a plastic so dense the blade slides off without cutting it, and it feels as cool as silk.
- Cool to the touch: workers don't sweat or take the glove off.
- Low lint for painting and electronics; the Max version grips oily parts.
-
Low lint: Continuous filament that doesn't shed lint.
-
Antimicrobial: Suppresses bacteria and fungi. For food.
-
Touchscreen: Operates screens without taking your glove off.
- UHMWPE + steel
- Cut A5 – A9
- Low lint
Dexterity®: Ultra-thin over TenActiv™ fiber
A sock so thin you can feel the relief of a coin with your eyes closed, yet a scalpel can't cut it.
- Removes the objection "I take it off because I can't feel the parts".
- Works as a precision glove or as a liner under another glove.
-
Touchscreen: Operates screens without taking your glove off.
- 18 – 21 gauge
- Cut A5 – A9
- Tactile
KnitActiv™: KnitActiv Pro™ · KnitActiv™
A soft, stretchy sweater with rubber plates on the back that absorb impacts, and a fabric that stops the blade without feeling like armor.
- One glove for cuts and bruises.
- Less fatigue than leather on long shifts.
-
Heat: Insulates against contact heat without harming the skin.
- Cut + impact or heat
- Cut A3 – A5
- Knit
ParaActiv™: Para-aramid linings and fabrics
A fiber that chars instead of melting when exposed to flame: it doesn't stick to skin or keep burning.
- Doesn't melt or sustain combustion.
- Seams don't come apart with sparks, slag or heat.
- Allows certification at high arc flash categories.
-
Flame · arc: Doesn't melt or sustain combustion. Resists arc flash.
- Para-aramid
- Flame-resistant
- Lining + stitching
Endura®: Endura® Arc Flash
Soft goatskin with an inner shield that resists sparks and the heat of an electrical explosion.

Certifications
Every level, verifiable
-
ANSI/ISEA 105
U.S. standard that rates cut resistance from A1 to A9 according to the grams of force the material withstands. It also covers abrasion, puncture and heat.
-
ANSI/ISEA 138
Measures how much force from an impact reaches the knuckles and fingers. It has three levels; level 3 transmits the least force.
-
EN 388 · CE marking
European mechanical-risk standard: abrasion, cut, tear, puncture, ISO cut and impact. It is the basis of CE marking for gloves.
