From the Lab to the Workshop: Who Needs Cryogenic Protection?
Cryogenic liquids such as liquid nitrogen are used across many industries for cooling, preservation and manufacturing. However, at temperatures down to -196°C they pose serious hazards. Direct contact can cause instant frostbite or cold burns, splashes and spills can damage tissue, and vapours can displace oxygen in confined spaces.

Behind the Design: How Cryoskin Gloves Are Made for Extreme Cold
When handling cryogenic liquids like liquid nitrogen at −196°C, the margin for error is razor thin. A single splash or brief contact can cause instant frostbite, cold burns, or permanent tissue damage. Ordinary freezer or leather gloves absorb liquid, stiffen, and compromise safety.
Elliotts developed the Cryoskin® range of cryogenic ...
The Science of Cryogenic Safety: Why Ordinary Gloves Don’t Cut It
Handling cryogenic liquids like liquid nitrogen is no ordinary task. At -196°C, even a drop of liquid nitrogen can cause instant frostbite, and other cryogens including dry ice, liquid helium, and liquid oxygen post similar dangers.
Standard PPE wont cut it and this is where CryoSkin® gloves and aprons make the difference.

What to Look for in Cryogenic PPE
Working with cryogenic liquids such as liquid nitrogen, liquid oxygen, or dry ice requires more than ordinary protective gear.
At temperatures as low as -196°C, cryogens can cause severe frostbite, cold burns, and tissue damage within seconds. Whether you’re in a laboratory, medical facility, food ...
