In a groundbreaking collaboration, ESKA, the renowned glove manufacturer, and LUKAS, a global leader in hydraulic rescue tools, proudly announce the launch of the Force ESKA x LUKAS – a next-generation technical rescue glove designed to meet the extreme demands of emergency responders.
Designed through a joint venture between two of the most trusted names in firefighting and rescue, the Force ESKA x LUKAS brings advanced protection and performance to technical rescue operations.
Designed for Real-World Rescue
The Force ESKA x Lukas glove is engineered to protect emergency personnel from the significant risks encountered during technical rescue operations – including cuts, abrasions, shards, and splinters – without compromising dexterity or comfort.
USPs
- Touch-Amara Technology: Enables seamless use of all touchscreen devices – essential for accessing digital emergency maps and operating modern rescue tools – without sacrificing grip or control.
- Flexible Knuckle Protection: Unlike stiff protectors found in other gloves, the Force Lukas features anatomically pre-formed knuckle guards that offer both protection and flexibility, allowing for precise, unhindered movement.
- Adjustable Velcro Cuff: A secure, close-fitting cuff protects the wrist – one of the most vulnerable areas – from splinters, sparks, and debris. The short-cuff design offers a snug fit without restricting movement, catering to many firefighters’ preferences.
- Optimized Fit and Feel: Combining the best features of ESKA’s Force 1 and Force 2 models, the Force ESKA x LUKAS delivers superior comfort, protection, and performance – without compromise.
- Trusted Collaboration: The partnership between ESKA and LUKAS brings together decades of expertise in glove design and rescue technology, offering a product that reflects the needs and feedback of real-world professionals.
Industry-Tested and Firefighter-Approved
The LUKAS RESCUE LEAGUE trainers rigorously tested the Force ESKA x LUKAS to ensure it meets the highest standards of performance and reliability.
“The Force ESKA x LUKAS was extensively trialled by our LUKAS RESCUE LEAGUE trainers and has reached full market maturity,” said Jessica Forster, Director of Marketing, IDEX Fire & Safety EU. “Throughout the process, our instructors highlighted how reliably the glove supported the demands of modern rescue operations, reaffirming that its development has been guided by real‑world feedback and professional insight.”
“The Force ESKA x LUKAS enhances haptic sensations. Its anatomically pre‑formed knuckle protectors, close‑fitting cuffs, and touchscreen‑capable palm material work together to deliver a glove that feels natural, responsive, and secure in action,” added Paul Loos, ESKA Manager. “These design elements have proven their worth in practice, giving responders confidence and comfort during detailed, hands‑on tasks.”
