Grip Gloves

Grip gloves: secure grip for assembly and logistics

These are the most widely used gloves in warehousing, assembly and maintenance: a light knitted liner with a palm coating that improves grip and protects against abrasion. Almost all are certified to EN 388; some also to EN 407, EN 511 or suitable for food contact.

Which coating to choose

• Nitrile microfoam: absorbs light oil and maintains grip, breathable.
• Sandy or crinkle nitrile: for greasy or wet parts.
• PU: thin and sensitive, ideal for small parts and quality control.
• Latex and latex foam: high grip on smooth surfaces, to be avoided for people with allergies.
• PVC dots: economical grip for handling boxes.

Palm, three-quarter or full coating

Palm coating leaves the back breathable; three-quarter coating also protects the knuckles from dirt; full coating makes the glove liquid-proof. Aqua models are designed for wet environments, while touchscreen models let you use handheld devices and terminals without taking off the glove.

Managing consumption

These gloves are replaced frequently: many models are available in packs of 12 pairs to organise weekly replacement. For multi-purpose gloves in large packs see general handling gloves; where there are sharp edges you need cut-resistant gloves. Go back to work gloves for the full range.
