SuperFabric® Protection from cut, puncture, and needle hazards
SuperFabric® brand material is a proprietary fabric created by a unique finishing process that configures tiny guard plates onto performance fabrics that help provide resistance against the harshest hazards. These protective fabrics are engineered for optimum resistance to abrasion, cut, punctures, and more, without sacrificing dexterity.
SuperFabric® brand material simultaneously incorporates a variety of protective fabric functions that no other known fabric can simulate. HexArmor® Personal Protective Equipment gives industry-leading cut, puncture, and needle resistance.

Needlestick Resistance
HexArmor® needlestick-resistant products work by layering flexible SuperFabric® brand material over each other; providing superior performance without sacrificing dexterity. SuperFabric® guard plates either block and deflect or trap and arrest needle hazards in the small gaps found between guard plates, keeping workers safe from needlestick injuries.
The prevalence of needlestick punctures in the recycling and waste industries, as well as the emergency services is steadily increasing. Without proper protection, workers are susceptible to life-changing needlestick injuries that can lead to bloodborne pathogens, including hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV.
SuperFabric® offers industry-defining needlestick protection. And, unlike most other needle-resistant technology, you don't see a dip in other protective properties when you choose HexArmor® PointGuard® products. HexArmor® needlestick-resistant products also boast some of the highest cut resistance in the industry.
