Gloves for the cleaning sector
Individual Protection Devices (PPE). Protection and Resistance are the keywords. The choice of materials is as fundamental as the choice of thicknesses to ensure the right mechanical and chemical protection.
Mechanical and chemical protection for professional cleaning tasks
Per le imprese di pulizia e in alcuni contesti professionali, l’esposizione prolungata a contatti chimici e il contatto frequente con l’acqua può compromettere l’integrità dell’epidermide.
Anche le mani costantemente umide possono ridurre la funzione protettiva della cute, favorendo la comparsa di microlesioni e screpolature. In molte professioni, l’uso di guanti protettivi non è solo consigliato, ma addirittura obbligatorio per garantire la sicurezza e la salute dei lavoratori.
Professional cleaning gloves: Reflexx quality
For frequent and prolonged use, powder-free gloves are essential to minimize skin irritation and preserve the skin’s lipid barrier. Reflexx gloves for cleaning are tested and certified by notified bodies in compliance with EU Regulation 2016/425 on Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).
Choosing the right glove material, such as nitrile, latex or vinyl, should not be based solely on cost, but also on biocompatibility and resistance to detergents and solvents. For example, nitrile gloves provide superior chemical and mechanical resistance and are ideal for handling aggressive substances. Latex gloves, while biodegradable and highly elastic, may cause allergic reactions in some users. Vinyl gloves, although less elastic and resistant, are a cost-effective solution for those with latex allergies.
Our hands are one of our most valuable tools: properly protecting them is essential for ensuring health and safety in the workplace.
