KCL
KCL GmbH is one of Germany’s leading glove manufacturers and has been contributing to effective hand protection against all types of risks with innovative products and services since 1932. In many work environments, protective gloves must be worn to prevent abrasions, puncture wounds, allergies, chemical burns, thermal burns, or even just simple cuts. Frequent contact with chemicals can also cause long-term damage, often only revealed later through poor blood test results. The consequences are significant for both employee and employer. The right protective glove for the specific application ensures reliable protection against such outcomes. KCL’s range includes everything from simple household gloves to mechanical protection gloves and complex chemical-resistant gloves. The largest glove industry lab in Europe is operated by KCL itself and allows for material testing with over 300,000 chemical substances. Gloves for heat, cold, and cut protection round off the product portfolio.
KCL has been part of Honeywell since 2008. In 2011, Honeywell Safety Products (HSP) was founded, uniting leading safety brands such as Honeywell (formerly Sperian and North), KCL, Miller, and Otter, offering the most comprehensive portfolio of personal protective equipment from head to toe. Since 2016, Honeywell’s Industrial Security division has also been active in gas detection technology. KCL has over 80 years of experience in manufacturing protective gloves made in Germany, offering expert advice and dedicated support.
KCL protective gloves provide reliable protection in nearly all areas of application. The company continuously tests its gloves for protection against mechanical and chemical stresses, ensuring compliance with DIN ISO 9001. To offer the best possible hand protection according to European standards, KCL also participates in national and international standardization committees. All products are characterized by outstanding wearing comfort. Years of research and development have optimized the flexibility and fit of the gloves.
