Is this the beginning of a new era in skin protection?
We say: Yes – especially for the skin.
While global pharmaceutical giants invest billions in treating inflammation inside the body, we are pursuing the same approach – but in skin protection: proactive rather than reactive.
Our solution, NP Glove®, is based on a breathable SiO₂ matrix:
- Invisible and clinically tested
- Protects for up to 24 hours without cortisone, grease or fragrances
- Platform technology – can be expanded flexibly like an operating system
NP Glove® is a cosmetic product, not a medical treatment.
Urgent need – clear figures
- More than 20 million people worldwide suffer from work-related dermatitis – e.g. in care, hospitality and cleaning
- In the US alone: over 13 million affected annually
- The economic burden there alone: over USD 1 billion per year
- In Europe, skin diseases are among the most expensive occupational illnesses, costing up to €5 billion annually
Why NP Glove® is different
- Not a cream – but structural prevention
- Prevents issues before they even begin
- Already tested in healthcare, skilled trades, industry and hospitality sectors
- We enable: Fewer sick days, lower costs, healthier employees
Our mission in one sentence
“We prevent what others have to treat.”
Your everyday protection partner
Whether in healthcare, the food industry, or skilled trades:
NP® Glove provides reliable skin protection wherever your hands are exposed to particular stress.
By forming an ultra-thin, breathable protective layer, NP® Glove effectively reduces direct contact with harmful influences such as microorganisms, dirt, cleaning agents or skin-irritating substances – while preserving the skin’s natural functions and breathability.
Thanks to its innovative technology, the protection remains effective for up to 24 hours – even with frequent hand washing, sanitising, or wearing gloves.
You’ll find a summary of NP® Glove’s key benefits in the overview below.
NP® Glove provides reliable protection for your skin – at work as well as in everyday life.
Proven in practice – Skin protection that delivers
Optimised for everyday use
In daily life, our skin is exposed to a wide range of stressors: dirt, germs, water, cleaning agents, and mechanical irritation.
NP® Glove supports the skin exactly where protection and relief are most needed – without interfering with the skin’s natural metabolism.
The ultra-thin protective film specifically reduces the adhesion of microorganisms and dirt particles, making skin cleansing easier while maintaining the skin’s softness and protective function.
Whether through frequent sanitising, contact with everyday environmental stressors, or dry indoor air:
NP® Glove delivers long-lasting skin protection – simple, safe, and invisible.
Dermatologically tested – “Very well tolerated by the skin”
The dermatological and allergological safety of NP® Glove has been clearly confirmed through both epicutaneous testing and ROAT (Repeated Open Application Test) by Dr Peter Rein, dermatologist, allergist, and environmental medicine specialist in Dillingen/Saar:
None of the test subjects showed any irritative or allergic reactions.
Thus, NP® Glove has been certified as having very good skin and mucous membrane compatibility.
Fully biocompatible
In medical terms, a material is considered biocompatible if it does not have any negative impact when in direct contact with living tissue – whether on or inside the body.
Human biologist, biophysicist, toxicologist, and medicinal chemist Dr Renaud T. Trouvé confirms in his expert report that NP® products “demonstrate remarkable tolerability and are all biocompatible, with no toxic effects arising from the products.”
What the science says
“In a study involving nursing staff, where the coating was applied directly to the skin, a significantly higher reduction in microbial load was observed compared to conventional disinfection methods.
This is a highly relevant finding in the context of preventing the transmission of infectious diseases via the hands – one of the most critical routes of infection in care settings.
What is particularly remarkable: this effect was achieved despite NP® Glove being free from fragrances, biocidal agents, and known allergens.
The results suggest that NP® Glove may make a valuable contribution to breaking this transmission pathway.”
– Prof Dr Jahns, microbiologist and scientific advisor to a project in a residential care facility
Note:
NP® Glove is a cosmetic skin protection product. It does not act as a disinfectant but forms a mechanical barrier that significantly reduces the adhesion of germs – without interfering with the skin’s natural metabolism.
NP® Glove – The preventive protection for everyone!
Whether in personal daily life or for the protection of employees in companies and public institutions – NP® Glove offers comprehensive prevention for all.
