This glove model is available in sizes ranging from small (7) to extra-large (10). Select the required size in the menu before adding it to the cart.

Cotton flock lining in the 18 mil glove

The cotton flock lining helps improve interior comfort and makes donning easier. The embossed palm pattern improves grip, especially when objects are wet.

Grip on wet or dry objects

To help the glove keep some grip quality without sticking to handled objects, the palm surface has a textured pattern. This finish helps provide a firm grip on wet or dry objects while preserving the flexibility of natural latex.

Food, laboratory and maintenance applications

This glove is approved for food handling by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) and Agriculture Canada. It is a non-disposable option for food processing, maintenance and environments where flexible reusable protection is required.

This model is also available in a 12 mil version (G562), which helps compare thickness according to the dexterity or durability required.

Natural latex properties

Natural latex properties vary according to additives dispersed through the compound, but its polymer structure contributes to elasticity, flexibility, high tensile strength and barrier quality. Natural latex remains comfortable and tactile when the manufacturer's limitations are respected.

The product page also indicates protection against a range of acids. Natural latex offers poor protection against oils, fats and hydrocarbons.

Comfort, moisture and cotton under-gloves

The cotton flock lining increases comfort compared with an unlined glove, especially during longer or repeated wear.

To better absorb moisture generated by perspiration, see the inspector glove for men (G217) or the model for women (G218).

Natural latex restrictions and allergies

Latex is a known allergen. These gloves should not be used where contact with people allergic to latex may occur. For oils, fats or hydrocarbons, choose a more suitable protection.

Maintenance of the reusable latex glove

This glove is reusable, but periodic maintenance is recommended to avoid contamination. To clean it, wear it normally and wash it as if you were washing your hands with soapy water. Then turn the glove inside out so the interior can dry properly before storage.

FAQ about this flock-lined latex glove

These questions summarize the points to check before selecting this natural latex glove for professional use.

Yes. The product page indicates approval for food handling in Canada. Still, confirm that the glove suits the handled product and the facility's internal procedure.

What is the difference with the other thickness?

The 12 mil version favors flexibility, while the 18 mil version offers more material. The choice depends on the level of dexterity and durability required.
