At any production, construction site or in the service center, the security of the employee begins with the correct choice of personal protective equipment (PPE). One of the key elements of such protection is working gloves. They not only protect their hands from damage - they help maintain health, increase the accuracy of movements and reduce fatigue during prolonged work.
The choice of suitable gloves is not a whim, but a necessity that directly relates to compliance with labor protection standards. The employer is obliged to provide each employee with high -quality PPEs, including protective clothing, shoes and means to protect hands. This is especially important in professions associated with mechanical, chemical or thermal influences.
The company, which has been specializing in PPE supply for more than 20 years, has been offering a wide range of products adapted to the needs of various industries. For example, on the site overalls a line of knitted gloves with different types of coating-PVC, latex and without spraying is presented. This approach allows each employee to get exactly the level of protection that is required for his specific task.

Many still believe that gloves are just a convenient accessory that can be worn "just in case." But in fact, they perform serious functions:
- Protection against cuts and abrasions - it is especially true when working with metal, glass, wood.
- Clutch with surfaces - gloves with pvc or latex spray do not allow the instrument to slip out of the hands.
- pollution protection - prevent oils, paints, solvents on the skin.
- thermal insulation - help to maintain heat in the cold season.
- anatomical comfort - modern models repeat the shape of the brush without constraining movements.
The rule is simple: the higher the risk of injuries, the more serious the approach to the choice of protective gloves should be. This is not just a recommendation - this is the requirement of the legislation of the Russian Federation. Violation of the norms can lead to fines, and in the event of an accident - to the criminal liability of the employer.
How to choose the right gloves?
Not all gloves are equally useful. What is suitable for working in a car repair shop may be useless in a warehouse or in a laboratory. Therefore, it is important to consider several factors when selecting PPE.
One of the main criteria is the mating density. It determines the thickness and strength of the material:
- Grade 7 (or 7.5) - the denser knitting. Suitable for gross work: construction, metallurgy, loading. The gloves are thick,
