Suitable Environments and Professions
We have put together a list of suitable professions and environments that we believe would benefit from using Adept KC Nitrile Gloves:
What Are the Benefits of a Knuckle Coating?
A knuckle only coating means the back of the hand can breath. This allows a more natural air flow than a fully coated glove. If you perspire heavily or just prefer the feel of a lighter, largely uncoated glove, Adept Knuckle Coated Gloves are ideal.
What's Special About NFT Nitrile?
Ultimate Industrial have developed their own blend of nitrile coating. Highly flexible, it is manufactured with tiny bubbles and capillaries that are designed to trap oil, grease and grime. This enhances grip strength and reduces the risk of slippage, preventing potentially harmful workplace accidents. Nitrile is also naturally waterproof, allowing you to work outside throughout winter without issue.
Unique Sanitation System
Adept Gloves use a patented Sanitized system to make the fibres used in their manufacturing process immune to microorganisms and bacteria. This means that as you perspire naturally during the day, harmless chemicals are released to kill any potentially harmful germs and bacteria that might linger on the hand, preventing cross-contamination.
