Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Clifton Coffee Stop, a bustling café in Bristol, needed a more durable and  comfortable glove for their team to handle the morning rush without constant rips and  changes.

"We were getting through so many gloves, and  our old ones were tearing constantly. These are far more durable, and  the team finds them much more comfortable to wear all morning. A simple switch that made a big difference."

David Chen – Owner

The switch has significantly reduced wastage from torn gloves and  improved the speed of their food-to-go service during peak hours.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Using Them Right

  • Always wash and  dry hands thoroughly before putting on a new pair.
  • Check each glove for any small tears or punctures before use.
  • Change gloves between handling raw and  cooked foods to prevent cross-contamination.
  • These are designed for single use only; dispose of them responsibly after each task.

Keeping Them Fresh

  • Store the box in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or fluorescent lighting.
  • Keep the dispenser box closed to protect the gloves from dust and  moisture.
  • Ensure they are stored away from chemicals or equipment that produces ozone, like electric motors.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Disposable Gloves

Not sure which gloves are right for your business? Here are a few pointers to help you decide.

Material Matters

Latex offers excellent flexibility and  sensitivity, but consider nitrile or vinyl if you have staff with latex allergies.

Powdered vs. Powder-Free

Lightly powdered gloves are easier to put on, especially with damp hands, but powder-free is better for sensitive skin and  avoiding residue.

Get the Right Fit

Gloves that are too tight can rip, and  gloves that are too loose can be a hazard. We stock a range of sizes to fit your whole team.

Consider the Task

For simple food handling, standard gloves are fine. For tasks involving chemicals or high-risk foods, look for thicker, more durable options.

Check for Food Safety

Always look for certifications like EN1186. This ensures the gloves are legally compliant for use in a professional food environment.
