Through this webinar you will understand all the specifics related to proper winter work glove selection. This discussion will include a detailed explanation of thermal insulation, its properties and how science is used to design cold weather work gloves that keep employees safe and comfortable while on the job.

Thirty-five years ago, 3M™ Thinsulate™ Insulation prompted a revolution. It started with a transformation of the skiwear industry. Poofy down jackets and vests gave way to sleek and slender ski fashions, and the idea of warmth-without-bulk was ignited. From there it spread. New Thinsulate insulation applications were developed, enhancing the comfort of hunters, athletes, commuters and others who work and play outdoors. 3M put its full force of science and innovation behind the continual advancement of nonwoven material technology. And never looked back. Today the facts are clear: after three-plus decades, Thinsulate insulation is still the one to beat. No other insulation provides more name recognition, a broader range of product options, or a higher level of performance and support.
