Disposable Food Gloves

Wherever unwrapped food is touched by hand, disposable gloves are part of daily work. This subcategory contains three versions that differ in material, fit and pack size. Transparent HDPE gloves in one size are designed for quick handling. Embossed LDPE gloves, also one size, have a textured surface for better grip. TPE gloves made from thermoplastic elastomer come in S, M, L and XL; they are elastic and described as an alternative to vinyl and latex.

All three versions are labelled food-safe and latex-free, and the TPE gloves are also powder-free. They are used at serviced counters, in bakeries and snack bars, in sandwich and salad production, in catering and in food processing.

Typical applications

• Picking up baked goods, sliced meats and cheese at the counter
• Filling rolls, sandwiches and wraps
• Portioning salads and antipasti
• Working with moist or greasy products where grip matters

What to look for when buying

Wearing time and grip are what matter. HDPE gloves fit loosely and go on and off quickly, which is practical at counters where staff switch constantly between product and till. The embossed surface of the LDPE gloves helps when products are slippery. Both come 100 to a bag, with a minimum order of one bag.

TPE gloves fit closer thanks to sizing and elasticity, and suit longer tasks where dexterity counts. They are supplied in boxes of 200, with a minimum order of 10 boxes. Please note that the product data refers to food contact, not to protection against chemicals or germs.
