Safety gloves are important for food processing and handling – not only to avoid injuries to the hands and skin, but to avoid health risks posed to consumers from contaminated food. All gloves used for this purpose must be tested, approved, and marked with text or a symbol. Also, make sure the gloves are approved for the type of foodstuffs you handle, such as acidic or fatty food. 

Depending on the environment, type of work, and risk, you may need different types of protection. Cuts, extreme temperatures, allergies, and eczema are common hazards within this sector – all of which can easily be avoided. For instance, cut-resistant gloves, knitted winter liner gloves, or bamboo gloves can be worn underneath a single-use glove – combined to suit you perfectly.
