Dry Handling Gloves

Dry handling gloves are an excellent choice for work where there is a low cut risk. Enhanced grip and dexterity are prioritised with these gloves, as well as breathability technology to minimise sweat build-up in hot, dry conditions. These gloves are a fantastic way to protect the hands across a whole host of professions, from bricklaying and groundwork to assembly and warehouse packing. Ensure a risk assessment has been carried to determine that cut resistant gloves are not required.

About Dry Handling Gloves

Gloves for dry handling offer protection against light abrasions while providing good hand dexterity, grip, and fit, increasing comfort and reducing hand fatigue.

These safety gloves are commonly used for general handling tasks in industries that do not involve exposure to liquids or moisture. Industries where workers use their hands extensively benefit especially from multipurpose dry handling gloves, such as general and precision handling positions in warehouses, as well as construction, and light assembly environments.

A good pair of dry handling gloves will offer great dexterity to the wearer as well as offering the relevant protection for the environment they are being worn in.

What Makes a Good General Purpose Dry Handling Work Glove?

Grip

Always consider a glove's grip when evaluating its performance, as a better grip reduces the risk of mistakes and accidents.

Breathability

While clammy hands won't affect a glove's protective ratings, they can shorten the amount of time a worker is willing to wear them. This may increase the risk of accidents in the long run if workers remove their dry glove workwear to let their hands breathe.

Dexterity

Just like grip, maintaining high dexterity or precision handling in your gloves is essential. It helps reduce the risk of accidents by removing the temptation for workers to take them off for intricate tasks.

Durable Palm Coating

A durable palm coating provides a strong grip, and better protection against abrasions while extending the gloves lifespan before needing replacement. Worn palm coatings is the main reason for glove replacement.

Comfort

Well-fitted gloves reduce hand fatigue during prolonged use.

Materials

Consider any potential allergies or sensitivities you may have to common glove materials. For individuals with latex allergies for example, non-latex alternatives like nitrile gloves should be chosen.

Touch Screen Compatible

Perfect for workplaces in which you must interact with a handheld device, touchscreen compatible gloves allow you to continue with your work without the inconvenience of removing your gloves every time you want to use your device. This improves safety and efficiency by saving time.
