Choosing the Right Waterproof Work Gloves
Sorting the right waterproof gloves is simple: match them to the job, not the other way around.
1. Material Coating
If you're dealing with oils or chemicals, go for nitrile or PVC coated gloves. For general wet work, latex-coated gloves offer flexibility and grip.
2. Insulation Needs
Choose insulated gloves for cold weather tasks. If your work is primarily indoors or in milder conditions, lighter gloves will suffice.
3. Dexterity and Grip
For tasks requiring precision, opt for gloves with a high dexterity rating. Anti-slip features are crucial if handling wet or slippery materials.
Understanding Work Glove Safety Ratings
Waterproof work gloves are tested against recognised safety standards covering abrasion resistance, cut protection, and chemical performance.
Our glove safety ratings guide breaks down EN ratings and what they mean in real working conditions, helping you choose gloves that offer the right balance of waterproofing, grip and protection.
