PE Gloves

Buyer’s Guide to Choosing PE Disposable Gloves

Polyethylene gloves provide an economical disposable barrier for food preparation, handling and other short-duration tasks requiring frequent glove changes. Insinc’s range includes standard clear PE gloves, blue embossed TPE gloves and shoulder-length gloves for veterinary or specialised applications.

Standard options have a 240mm cuff and are available in combined S–M and L–XL sizes, while shoulder-length gloves measure up to 800mm for extended arm coverage.

Standard PE or TPE Gloves?

Standard PE gloves have a loose fit and suit quick food-handling tasks such as assembling sandwiches, serving bakery items or handling ready-to-eat food. Bulk cartons of 5,000 gloves are practical for high-volume workplaces.

TPE gloves are heavier and embossed for additional texture. Their more flexible construction may provide a closer fit and better control than basic polyethylene gloves for detailed preparation work.

When Are Shoulder-Length Gloves Required?

Shoulder-length PE and copolymer gloves provide extended coverage for veterinary, agricultural and other specialised tasks where standard wrist-length gloves are unsuitable. Check the glove length, thickness and intended application before ordering.

Choose the correct size and replace disposable gloves between tasks or whenever they become torn or contaminated. PE and TPE gloves do not replace handwashing and should not be assumed to provide protection against every chemical or workplace hazard.
