Work Gloves: Keep a Safe Grip on Every Job Around the Farm

Work Gloves: Protection That Keeps the Feel

A glove is only useful if it actually gets worn. Alongside protection, that makes fit and grip the deciding factors: anyone who can no longer pick up a screw takes the glove off again after two minutes. The range runs from the wafer-thin coated knitted glove through leather and synthetic leather to cut and chemical resistance, plus models for winter, the garden and children’s hands.

Coated Knitted Gloves as the All-Rounder

Most jobs get done with a knitted glove whose palm is coated. Foam latex grips well in the wet, PU stays thin and dexterous, and nitrile stands up to oil and grease. Smooth Grip, PowerGrab Plus and Gnitter Grey cover those options, and THINKGREEN is made from recycled polyester. The uncoated back of the hand lets moisture out, so your hand is not clammy after hours of work. For screen and phone there is the EasyTouch, whose fingertips work on a touchscreen.

Specialist Models for Particular Jobs

Where things turn sharp-edged, the cut resistant glove Cutter TOP at level F is the right pick, level F being the highest step of cut resistance. When mixing cleaners and acids, the Vinex chemical-resistant glove protects you. For rough work with timber, wire and stone there is the Pan glove in goatskin leather and the Artos synthetic leather glove, and for repairs the Zelos mechanic glove. The Winter Lite keeps you warm down to 0 °C, Bamboo and Calla are meant for the beds, and Joy is a glove in children’s sizes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which coating is the right one?
Foam latex for wet conditions and rough material, PU for fine work that needs a delicate touch, and nitrile wherever oil, grease or lubricants are involved.

What does level F mean on a cut resistant glove?
The letters A to F state the tested cut resistance and rise in that order. F is the highest step and is meant for work with sheet metal, glass or blades.

How do I care for the gloves?
Knitted models can usually be washed cool and then left to dry in the air. Leather stays supple if you only brush it down and keep it off the radiator.
