Dyneema, owned by Avient Corporation, introduced its third generation of Dyneema Diamond fiber, surpassing cut protection and light-weight performance of prior-generation fiber for protective gloves.

New third generation of Dyneema Diamond fiber enhances cut resistance to protective gloves.

Gloves made with Dyneema Diamond 3.0 are up to 40% lighter than those made with previous iterations of the fiber, contributing to better user comfort. It also enhances worker safety with 6 times higher cut resistance than gloves made from generic HPPE fiber, and a +2 cut level compared to previous generations of Dyneema fiber.

Further advantages over other fibers include improved coating adhesion, higher fiber integrity, plus touchscreen friendliness.

Produced with patented technology

With patent-protected technology unique to Dyneema, raw ingredient polymer is molecularly engineered for unrivaled strength, then enhanced with cut-resistant microparticles spun directly into the polymer.

This technique allows the fiber to produce protective gloves with single yarn technology, with no need for additional reinforcement yarns to achieve cut resistance. This opens up greater design flexibility and allows producers to craft silky-smooth gloves that keep hands agile and dexterous throughout the working day.
