Your Ultimate Guide to Maximizing Protection by Qingdao Meiji Labor Products Co., Ltd

Why Proper Glove Use is Non-Negotiable

Did you know that 60% of hand injuries occur due to improper glove use? It’s not enough to just wear gloves—you must wear them correctly. At Qingdao Meiji Labor Products Co., Ltd, we combine cutting-edge technology with practical knowledge to ensure your safety isn’t left to chance.

Step 1: Choose the Right Gloves for the Job

Match Gloves to Hazards:

* Cuts & Abrasions: ANSI Cut Level A3-A9 gloves 

* Chemicals: Nitrile/Neoprene gloves with EN 374 certification 

* Heat/Fire: Leather or aluminized gloves 

* Electrical Work: Class 00-4 insulated gloves 

Check Certifications:

✔ Look for ANSI, EN, ISO marks

✔ Verify expiration dates (especially for insulating gloves)

Step 2: Proper Donning (Putting On) Techniques

1.Inspect Gloves: Check for damage (tears, holes, discoloration).

2.Clean Hands: Remove dirt, grease, or moisture.

3.Roll Cuffs: Avoid over-stretching; gently pull from the cuff.

4.Ensure Fit: Snug but not tight—no gaps at wrists!

Step 3: During Use – Avoid Common Mistakes

╳ Don’t wear gloves near rotating machinery (risk of entanglement).

╳ Don’t use damaged gloves (even small holes compromise protection).

╳ Don’t ignore comfort—if gloves are uncomfortable, workers won’t wear them!

√ Do change gloves if they become wet or contaminated.

√ Do pair insulating gloves with leather protectors.

Step 4: Safe Doffing (Removal) Methods

1.Peel Off Carefully: Avoid touching contaminated surfaces.

2.Turn Gloves Inside Out: Traps contaminants inside.

3.Dispose Properly: Follow your facility’s protocols for hazardous materials.

Warning: Never reuse disposable gloves!

Step 5: Maintenance & Storage

Cleaning:

* Use mild soap and lukewarm water.

* Air dry away from direct heat/sunlight.

Storage:

* Hang gloves by the cuff to maintain shape.

* Keep away from chemicals, ozone, and UV light.

Step 6: Regular Inspection & Replacement

Daily Checks:

* Air Test: Inflate gloves to detect leaks.

* Flex Test: Check for cracks when bent.

When to Replace:

* After visible damage (cuts, tears).

* If stiffness or swelling occurs (chemical degradation).

* Exceeding manufacturer’s lifespan (e.g., 6 months for insulating gloves).
