Workplace Safety & Protection
Hand protection for household, workshop and assembly work: sort work gloves, industrial gloves and head protection by material, size and area of use.
Workplace Safety & Protection at a Glance
Workplace safety and protection begins with the question of which part of the body and which task are central. The range includes many glove variants; the category also leads to industrial gloves and head protection. Material, coating, size, lining and pack information are especially relevant when choosing.
Work Gloves
For assembly, workshop, garden and general handwork. Product data lists leather, nitrile, latex, PU and polyester; different coatings and linings are also available.
Industrial Gloves
This section covers industrial and chemical-protection gloves. The facts include nitrile rubber in size XL/10, nitrile in size L and latex in size L; green and yellow versions are described.
Head Protection
This subcategory brings together head protection. It is the place to start when the work process concerns the head rather than the hands.
When choosing, first note the body area and task, then compare material, coating, size and wearing style. Product names help with sorting; specific features are listed in each product card.
Choosing Gloves by Task
Glove selection can be organised clearly: for assembly, coating, flexibility and tactile feel matter, while leather gloves place the focus on material, seams and cuff. For chemical work, the nitrile variants identified as chemical-protection gloves form a separate product group. Size must always be considered together with the specific model.
For Assembly and Fine Handling
The assembly variants differ considerably. SuperFlex+ size 11 is made of polyester and described with a full latex coating as well as a latex foam coating with Sandyfinish. A grey PU model is size 7 and is listed with PU coating and tactile feel. Superflex Green size 6 is described with latex coating and a flexible fit. This makes it possible to organise the product information by coating, size and tactile feel.
For Leather Work and Firm Grips
The leather gloves in sizes 10, 11 and 12 are described with grain leather, double seams and a canvas cuff. For size 11, the card also specifies a palm lining. A mechanic's glove in XL/10 lists a material mix as well as abrasion resistance and vibration damping. Compare these details directly with the task and the flexibility required.
Leather Work Gloves, Size 10, Sturdy Gloves
Grain leather, double seams and a canvas cuff; the product card gives a weight of 0.14 kg.
Assembly Gloves, Work Gloves, Superflex+, Size 11
Polyester, a full latex coating and a latex foam coating with Sandyfinish are listed as features.
Industrial Gloves, Nitrile Rubber, Size XL/10, Green
Nitrile rubber, cotton lining, a green version and a special surface structure are listed in the product card.
Comparing Materials and Coatings
Material is a clear distinguishing feature, but it does not replace checking the size and the specific coating. The following groups summarise only details that occur in the product facts.
Nitrile and Nitrile Rubber
Green chemical-protection gloves are described in sizes 7, 9, 10 and 11, along with green industrial gloves in sizes L and XL/10. Depending on the model, cotton lining or cotton flocking and a structured or diamond-patterned surface are specified.
Latex
Latex rubber is specified for a yellow industrial glove in size L. The SuperFlex+ models in sizes 7 and 11 have a latex coating with Sandyfinish. The XL/10 household glove is listed with natural latex and cotton lining.
Leather
Grain leather, double seams and a canvas cuff appear among the leather gloves. The facts list sizes 10, 11 and 12; the cards for sizes 11 and 12 also specify a palm lining.
PU, Neoprene and Synthetic Leather
The grey PU model is size 7 and has a PU coating. Power Grip size 12 is described with neoprene, synthetic leather and PVC-reinforced grip surfaces.
Lining and surface structure can make the difference between otherwise similar names. The product card should therefore be checked against the planned task instead of treating material names as interchangeable.
Size, Fit and Pack Information
The product facts include numerical sizes from 6 to 12 as well as sizes L and XL/10. The notation belongs to the specific product. Size 7 therefore cannot be used to infer a size for another coating or material group.
Check the Fit First
Premium Comfort household gloves are described in the facts as size L or XL/10 and yellow. The sizes vary by model among assembly and chemical-protection gloves. What matters is that the desired size, material and coating are specified together in one product card.
Single Item and Multipack
The size 6 item is identified as 10 pairs of assembly gloves; its fact card gives 0.6 kg. According to their cards, the other individual models range from 0.04 to 0.14 kg. These weights refer to the individual items and should not be transferred to other variants.
Head Protection and Related Areas
Hand protection is only one part of personal equipment. Head protection is therefore listed as its own subcategory. No features for this area can be derived from the glove data; the relevant product profile is decisive. Three questions help in the work process: Which body area is affected, what task is being performed and which features does the specific card state?
- Define the body area and work environment first.
- Compare material, coating, lining and size separately.
- Adjust the selection again when the task changes.
Everyday Work: Selection and Handling
The product facts already assign individual variants to tasks: household gloves are described for cleaning work in the home and garden, leather gloves for construction, garden and workshop use, and assembly gloves for workshop and garden work. Nitrile chemical-protection gloves are named as a separate group for handling chemicals.
Before use, check the seams, surface, lining and coating. After work, handling should follow the care instructions on the relevant card. Dirty or damaged equipment is stored separately and assessed again before the next task.
This keeps the selection traceable: note the task, define the body area, compare the product details for material and size, and use pack or weight information only for the selected model.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which sizes appear in the product data?
The data names sizes 6 through 12, L and XL/10. Examples include chemical-protection gloves in sizes 7, 9, 10 and 11, leather gloves in sizes 10 to 12, and assembly gloves in sizes 6, 7 and 11. The designation remains tied to the respective model.
How do nitrile, latex, leather and PU differ?
Nitrile and nitrile rubber are named for green industrial and chemical-protection gloves. Latex appears as rubber, full coating or foam coating. Leather cards specify grain leather and double seams, while the PU model has a PU coating. The complete product specification determines the choice.
Which gloves are intended for chemicals?
The product names and facts list dedicated chemical-protection gloves made of nitrile in green versions. Cotton flocking, a diamond pattern and sizes 7, 9, 10 and 11 are among the details named. An individual variant should be assessed only from its specific information.
What are lining and surface structure for?
Several models specify cotton lining or cotton flocking. Other cards describe a special structure, a diamond pattern or Sandyfinish. These features distinguish the versions and should therefore be included in a direct comparison of the product cards.
Are gloves available in multipacks?
Yes. The product facts identify one item as 10 pairs of size 6 assembly gloves; the card gives 0.6 kg. Further pack information should be carried over only when it is explicitly stated for the relevant product.
