Metal-Detectable Disposable Gloves
Metal additives in these gloves will set off metal detectors if they fall into your line. They help you comply with Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) programs for keeping contaminated food from leaving your facility. They’re also blue, so they’re easy to spot and retrieve. These gloves are FDA compliant for direct contact with food, and they don’t contain latex or natural rubber.
Nitrile gloves are more puncture and tear resistant than vinyl gloves. They’re also more elastic, so they fit more snugly and let you feel finer details. They have textured fingertips to help you grip slippery materials.
Coated Work Gloves
The coating on these gloves provides extra protection without limiting dexterity. It also provides a secure grip.
Cotton and cotton/polyester blend gloves are breathable and can be comfortably worn for long periods of time. Fully coated gloves provide the same protection for the front and back of the hand. Textured gloves provide a better grip than smooth gloves.
Nitrile-coated gloves are more durable than latex-coated gloves and provide chemical as well as oil resistance. They are a good alternative for those concerned about latex allergies.
Use gloves with knit cuffs for a secure fit. Gloves with open cuffs are more convenient to put on and take off than other gloves.
