Safety Gloves - Buy Hand Gloves at Best Price in UAE

Safety gloves are a type of hand protection designed to help protect workers from workplace hazards such as cuts, chemicals, heat, cold and electrical risks. Each glove type is made from specific materials for a specific hazard, so the right choice depends on the task, the risk level and the working conditions. At SAMS Solutions, we supply certified safety hand gloves to construction, oil & gas, manufacturing, logistics, food and maintenance teams across Dubai and the UAE.

Types of Safety Gloves

Cut-Resistant Gloves: These gloves are made from materials such as HPPE, aramid fibers, Kevlar® or metal mesh. They help protect hands from cuts and lacerations when handling glass, sheet metal and other sharp-edged objects. Cut protection is rated under EN 388, from level A (lowest) to level F (highest).

Polymer Coated Gloves: These knitted gloves have a PU, nitrile or latex coating on the palm. They give good grip, abrasion resistance and dexterity for general handling, assembly, construction and warehouse work.

Chemical-Resistant Gloves: These gloves are made from nitrile, neoprene, PVC, butyl rubber or other specialised compounds. Select the glove according to the specific chemical, its concentration, the exposure time and the manufacturer’s compatibility guidance. They are tested to EN ISO 374.

Heat-Resistant Gloves: These gloves are used where workers handle hot materials, for example in glass manufacturing, foundries and ovens. They are made from leather, Kevlar® or specially treated fabrics and are rated under EN 407.

Leather & Welding Gloves: Welding gloves are made from heavy leather and protect against sparks, spatter and radiant heat. They are tested to EN 12477. Rigger gloves, which are also made from durable leather, are designed for rigging, construction, material handling and other heavy-duty work where abrasion resistance and grip matter.

Electrical Insulating Gloves: These gloves help protect workers from electrical hazards when used within their voltage rating and according to workplace procedures. They are classified from Class 00 to Class 4 under EN 60903 / ASTM D120 and should be inspected and tested regularly.

Freezer / Cold Storage Gloves: These insulated gloves keep hands warm and flexible in cold storage, freezer rooms and other low-temperature environments. They are rated under EN 511.

Cotton Knit & Drill Gloves: These lightweight, breathable gloves are used for light handling, inspection and general work. They also work well as liners under other gloves.

Disposable Gloves: These single-use nitrile, latex or vinyl gloves are used for short tasks where hygiene or contamination is a concern, such as food handling, cleaning and medical work.

Mechanic Gloves: These gloves protect against abrasions and minor cuts while giving the dexterity needed for detailed work with tools and machinery.

Materials Used in Safety Gloves

• Leather: Durable and protects against abrasion, sparks and moderate heat.
• Kevlar® / Aramid: High tensile strength and heat resistance, which makes it ideal for cut- and heat-resistant gloves.
• HPPE: A lightweight, high-strength fibre that gives cut resistance with good dexterity.
• Nitrile: A synthetic rubber that resists many chemicals, oils and punctures, and is less likely to cause allergic reactions than latex.
• Neoprene: Resists a broad range of chemicals and offers good flexibility.
• PVC: Protects against water, many acids and alkalis.
• Latex: Offers a snug fit and good sensitivity, but can cause allergic reactions in some people.
• Cotton: Breathable and comfortable, and used for knitted gloves and liners.

How to Choose the Right Safety Gloves?

• Hazard type: Identify whether workers face cuts, chemicals, heat, cold, abrasion, electrical risks or a combination of these.
• Protection level: Check the EN standard and rating on the glove (for example, EN 388 cut level C or higher for sheet metal).
• Material: Choose a material suited to the hazard. For chemicals, always check the compatibility chart.
• Fit and size: Gloves should fit securely without restricting movement or dexterity.
• Grip: Choose textured or coated palms for handling tools, oily parts or smooth materials.
• Comfort in UAE heat: For long outdoor shifts, choose breathable, lightweight gloves that reduce sweating.
• Durability: Select gloves that can withstand how often and how hard they will be used.

Safety Gloves FAQs

1. What does the EN 388 rating on a glove mean?
EN 388 rates a glove’s mechanical protection: abrasion, cut, tear and puncture resistance. Cut resistance is shown as a letter from A to F, where F is the highest level of protection.

2. Which gloves are best for handling chemicals?
Nitrile, neoprene, PVC or butyl gloves, depending on the chemical. Always check the glove’s EN ISO 374 rating and the manufacturer’s chemical compatibility chart.

3. Which gloves are best for sheet metal and glass?
Cut-resistant gloves made from HPPE, Kevlar® or aramid with an EN 388 cut level of C or higher.

4. Which gloves are used for welding?
Leather welding gloves tested to EN 12477. Type A gloves are thicker for heavy welding such as MIG and arc welding, while Type B gloves are thinner and give more dexterity for TIG welding.

5. What is the difference between latex and nitrile gloves?
Nitrile is more resistant to oils, chemicals and punctures, and is less likely to cause allergies. Latex offers a softer fit and sensitivity, but some people are allergic to it.

6. Which gloves are comfortable for outdoor work in UAE heat?
Lightweight, breathable knitted gloves with a PU or nitrile palm coating give good grip and protection while reducing sweating.

7. How should safety gloves fit?
Gloves should fit securely, with no loose fingertips, while still allowing comfortable movement and dexterity.
