Gloves are integral part of the overall personal protective equipment. Hand protection can be achieved by using safety gloves. These gloves are available to protect against chemicals, contamination and infection (e.g. disposable gloves, latex gloves, vinyl gloves and nitrile gloves), extremes of temperature (e.g. oven gloves, welder's gloves), mechanical hazards (e.g. rigger gloves, chainmail gloves) and lacerations and other wounds from sharp objects. |
