FAQs

Are these gloves safe for food contact?

Yes, they are suitable for food handling environments where hygiene is critical.

Does the powder leave a residue?

As these are lightly powdered, there may be a small amount of fine residue, which is typical for this type of glove.

Can I use these with touchscreens?

While the thin material offers good sensitivity, most capacitive touchscreens may not register touch through standard latex gloves.

Are these gloves sterile?

No, the Portwest A910 gloves are intended for general use and are not sterile.

How should I choose my size?

Measure the width of your palm and compare it against standard sizing charts to ensure a snug but comfortable fit.

Troubleshooting

Glove tears during application

Ensure you are using the correct size; forcing a hand into a glove that is too small increases the risk of punctures or tears.

Hands feel sticky or sweaty

Remove the gloves, wash and thoroughly dry your hands before donning a fresh pair to minimize moisture buildup.

Allergic skin reaction

Discontinue use immediately, as this indicates a sensitivity to natural rubber latex. Seek medical advice if irritation persists.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior flexibility and stretch compared to synthetic alternatives
  • High level of tactile sensitivity for detailed work
  • Easy to put on and remove due to the light powdering
  • Cost-effective for high-turnover environments
  • Durable enough for food preparation and general handling

Cons

  • Contains natural rubber latex which can cause allergic reactions
  • Non-textured surface may be slippery when working with oils
  • Not suitable for use with certain chemicals or solvents
  • Powder residue can potentially contaminate sensitive lab environments

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure optimal performance, store these gloves in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight, as UV rays can degrade natural latex over time. When donning, slide your hand into the glove gently; the internal powder will help the glove glide over the skin. If you are using these for food handling, change gloves frequently between tasks—especially when moving from raw to cooked foods—to prevent cross-contamination. After use, dispose of the gloves in accordance with your facility's waste disposal protocols. These gloves are intended for single use only and should not be washed or reused.
