Fish Processing Gloves

Fish Processing Gloves

If you work in any sort of food processing job, especially fish processing, you know how important it is to use gloves when handling food. Gloves provide a barrier of protection for all involved. Gloves protect against cross contamination and the spread of foodborne illness as well as from minor cuts and abrasions.
 
In the fish processing industry, workers are often working in cold conditions, like a large indoor fridge or freezer and so the most common glove combination is to wear a cotton or wool glove as a barrier from the cold, with a disposable nitrile glove on the outside to protect against any sort of contamination. Nitrile has become the industry standard, and the most popular choice for a disposable glove because it doesn’t have any of the risks of allergic reactions like it’s counterpart, latex, and nitrile is more durable and inherently resistant to chemicals. If you don’t want to do the double glove set up, you can also find some heavy duty waterproof gloves what will offer all the protection you need.
