Slaughterhouse Safety Gloves

Why Slaughterhouse Safety Gloves Matter

Slaughterhouses present unique hazards, including sharp knives, heavy machinery, and biological contaminants. Safety gloves designed for these environments must provide cut resistance, grip security, and hygienic protection—all while withstanding rigorous daily use. RETON’s slaughterhouse safety gloves are engineered to meet these demands, helping reduce workplace injuries while maintaining food safety standards.

Key Features of Effective Slaughterhouse Gloves

1. Cut & Puncture Resistance

• Made with high-performance stainless steel mesh or cut-resistant fibers (e.g., HPPE or aramid)

• Protects against accidental slips from boning knives, cleavers, and saws

• Some models include reinforced fingertips for extra durability

2. Anti-Slip & Secure Grip

• Textured or rubber-coated palms prevent slippage when handling wet meat, fat, or blood

• Ensures control when using sharp tools or operating machinery

3. Hygienic & Easy to Clean

• Non-absorbent materials prevent bacterial growth

• Resistant to blood, fat, and cleaning chemicals

• Can be steam-sterilized, autoclaved, or machine-washed for repeated use

4. Comfort for Long Shifts

• Breathable liners reduce sweat buildup

• Ergonomic fit allows natural hand movement

• Lightweight designs minimize fatigue

Choosing the Right Slaughterhouse Safety Gloves

When selecting gloves for slaughterhouse work, consider:

✅ Cut Protection Level – Look for EN 388 (Cut Level A-F) or ANSI/ISEA 105 (Cut Level A1-A9) ratings
✅ Material – Stainless steel for heavy-duty cutting, or cut-resistant fibers for flexibility
✅ Grip Type – Non-slip coatings (nitrile, latex-free rubber) for wet conditions
✅ Hygiene Compliance – FDA, HACCP, or EU food-contact certified options
✅ Dexterity – Ensure gloves allow precise knife work without restriction

Applications in Slaughterhouse Operations

• Stunning & Bleeding Areas – Protection from sharp tools and blood exposure

• Skinning & Evisceration – Cut-resistant gloves prevent accidental wounds

• Deboning & Trimming – High dexterity needed for precision work

• Chilling & Packaging – Cold-resistant options for freezer environments
