1. Protection from physical hazards:
Cuts and abrasions: When working in an industrial environment with sharp tools, edges and materials, cuts or abrasions may occur. Safety gloves can be a good safety protection to reduce the risk of injury.
Impact protection: And when carrying heavy objects or operating some dangerous machines, impact injuries may occur. Special gloves with pads can absorb shock and protect your hands.
2. Chemical and thermal safety:
Chemical resistance: When handling some chemicals, workers need to wear gloves that can prevent harmful substances from contacting the skin.
Protection from heat and cold: Extreme temperatures may cause burns or frostbite. Wearing insulated gloves can insulate and maintain a safe temperature.
3. Enhanced grip and dexterity:
Wearing safety gloves usually has a textured surface to ensure a firm grip on tools and materials, which is crucial for efficiency and safety.
