The technical glove praised for its suppleness and toughness in deep-freeze environments

The RefrigiWear 0518 PolarForce glove is hugely popular among professionals for its innovative hybrid design. Where traditional extreme cold gloves are often stiff and fatigue the hand, the PolarForce uses a stretch outer fabric that follows every movement. The genuine leather palm delivers reliable grip and enhanced resistance to repeated friction, while the inner insulation traps warmth down to −35 °C. Certified to European mechanical and thermal protection standards, it has become an essential benchmark in the field.

Grand Froid Expert View

"The 0518 is one of our most popular gloves, and it is easy to see why. Forklift operators, drivers and order pickers love it because it eliminates the bulk of traditional leather gloves while remaining incredibly warm. The leather panel on the palm perfectly protects friction zones when handling pallets, and the stretch back lets the hand breathe while blocking air at −35 °C."

RefrigiWear PolarForce Glove 0518 – Rated −35 °C

Recommended uses

Equipment driving and forklift operation: ideal for steering wheels, levers and joysticks in cold stores thanks to its great suppleness.
Intensive logistics and picking: handling parcels and pallets in extreme negative cold environments (blast-freeze stores).
Technical outdoor activities: maintenance work and logistics on runways or sites in severe winter cold (down to −35 °C).

Technical features

PolarForce technology: advanced ergonomic design that maximises heat retention without creating bulk that hinders finger movement.
Performance Stretch back: stretch synthetic fabric that adapts to the natural flex of the hand and drastically reduces muscular fatigue.
Durable leather palm: reinforcements positioned on critical grip zones to maximise glove service life against abrasion.
Adjustable wrist: protective wrist closure that fully seals the inside of the glove against frozen air entry.
