Food Grade Stainless Steel Gloves

In food preparation and processing environments, hand protection must meet two critical requirements: safety from cuts and compliance with food hygiene standards. Food grade stainless steel gloves fulfill both needs by combining cut-resistant stainless steel construction with materials approved for direct food contact. Unlike regular protective gloves, these specialized tools are designed specifically for use in meat processing, commercial kitchens, and food manufacturing facilities.

Key Benefits of Food Grade Stainless Steel Gloves

1. Compliant with Food Safety Regulations

Made from AISI 304 or 316 stainless steel, these gloves resist corrosion and meet FDA or EU food contact material standards. Their non-porous surface prevents bacterial growth, making them suitable for repeated use in food environments.

2. Reliable Cut Protection

The interlocking stainless steel rings provide effective defense against knife cuts while maintaining flexibility. Unlike fiber-based alternatives, they offer consistent protection even after multiple washes.

3. Easy to Clean and Maintain

Designed for hygiene-sensitive environments, these gloves can be:

• Washed with hot water and food-safe detergents

• Sanitized in commercial dishwashers

• Steam-sterilized without damage

Choosing the Right Food Grade Stainless Steel Gloves

When selecting gloves for food handling, consider:

• Material Certification: Look for FDA 21 CFR or EU 1935/2004 compliance

• Comfort Features: Some models include:

• Breathable inner liners

• Adjustable wrist straps

• Ergonomic finger shaping

• Size Options: Proper fit ensures both safety and dexterity

• Intended Use: Different styles available for:
