Storing Butyl Gloves:
To ensure the longevity and effectiveness of MIRA Safety Protective CBRN Gloves (as with all butyl rubber gloves), it is recommended to follow these storage guidelines:

1. Original Packaging: Store the gloves in their original packaging to maintain their quality and protect them from external elements.
2. Dark Room: Choose a storage area that is dark or minimally exposed to light, as excessive exposure to light can degrade the gloves over time.
3. Temperature Range: Maintain a storage temperature between 41°F and 77°F (5°C to 25°C) to preserve the integrity of the gloves. Avoid extreme temperature fluctuations.
4. Relative Humidity: Store the gloves in an environment with a relative humidity level below 75% to prevent moisture buildup and potential damage to the gloves.
5. Temperature Extremes (Optional): In exceptional circumstances, if required, the gloves can be stored at temperature extremes ranging from -50°C to 60°C (-58°F to 140°F) as per the manufacturer's advice. However, it is generally recommended to store them within the optimal temperature range mentioned above.
6. Proper Handling: Treat the gloves as 100% butyl rubber and handle them accordingly. After each use, inspect the gloves, paying special attention to flexion spots, for any signs of cracking or damage.

By following these storage instructions, you can ensure that your butyl gloves, including MIRA Safety Protective CBRN Gloves, remain in optimal condition for up to 15 years.
