Chemical Resistant Gloves

(33 products)

If your staff works with or near dangerous chemicals, everyone must wear chemical resistant gloves to protect themselves from work-related hand injuries. Many companies use hazardous chemicals for cleaning, manufacturing, and energy purposes. Still, these materials can lead to severe burns and nerve damage if they come into contact with a person’s skin. Chemical resistant gloves are made with special protective materials that won’t absorb or break down when exposed to hazardous chemicals. Chemical resistant safety gloves are also used to protect workers from bodily fluids that can lead to the spread of disease and illness.

What should chemical resistant gloves be cleaned with?

Disposable safety gloves should typically be discarded at the end of each shift. Reusable chemical-resistant gloves require thorough cleaning to ensure their safety, even if they haven’t been exposed to hazardous substances. Toxic materials can linger on the glove’s exterior, potentially contaminating the worker or other surfaces in the work environment.

Check the instructions or user manual to find a list of manufacturer-approved cleaning materials. You can disinfect the gloves with a special cleaning wipe or mild detergent. Remove your gloves and wash your hands with soap and warm water. Immerse your gloves in warm water and use a non-metal brush with stiff bristles to remove the debris. Let them soak for up to two minutes before rinsing them off with cool water. Dry them before using them.

How often should chemical resistant gloves be cleaned and sanitized?

Clean and disinfect your chemical resistant gloves at the start and end of every shift to prevent cross contamination. Store this PPE in a dry, room-temperature location when it isn’t in use.
