Protective Gloves and Garden Gloves: Safety and Comfort for Every Task

At Heros Hygiene Switzerland, you will find high-quality protective gloves and garden gloves tailored to the needs of professionals and hobby gardeners alike. Whether you’re working in the garden, the kitchen, or industry, the right hand protection makes all the difference. It ensures your safety while enhancing comfort and efficiency at work.

Why Are Garden and Protective Gloves So Important?

These gloves are much more than a nice accessory. They provide reliable protection against injuries, dirt, and hazardous substances:

• In the garden, they protect your hands from thorns, chemicals such as fertilizers, and sharp tools.
• In industry, they shield you from cuts, heat, cold, and aggressive substances.
• The right gloves not only enhance your safety but also make work more comfortable.

Cotton vs. Protective Gloves: What’s the Difference?

Not all gloves are the same – and for a good reason. Here’s a comparison:

Cotton gloves: Ideal for light tasks where high protection is not required. They keep your hands clean and are comfortable to wear.

• Protective gloves: Designed for more demanding tasks, they provide protection against cuts, chemicals, heat, or cold, depending on the material. They are more robust, durable, and often meet stricter safety standards.

Garden Gloves with Long Cuffs: Full Protection for Gardeners

For intensive gardening tasks – such as hedge trimming or weed removal – garden gloves with extended cuffs are a game changer. They protect not only your hands but also your forearms from scratches, chemicals, and insects.

Thanks to their ergonomic fit, they are comfortable to wear, while durable materials like leather or specialized synthetics ensure a long lifespan.

Cut-Resistant Protective Gloves: Essential for Safety

When working with sharp tools – whether in the kitchen, garden, or industry – cut-resistant gloves are an absolute must. They are made from high-tech materials like Kevlar or stainless steel fibres, effectively preventing cuts.

Common applications:

• Safely handling knives in the kitchen
• Protection against sharp edges in industry
• Working with thorns or sharp gardening tools

The Right Glove for Every Task

Protective gloves have incredibly versatile applications:

• Gardening: Protection against thorns, weeds, and chemicals
• Kitchen work: Safe handling of sharp knives and tools
• Industry & Construction: Protection against mechanical, chemical, or thermal hazards
• Cleaning: Defence against aggressive cleaning agents and bacteria

At Heros Hygiene, you will find a wide range of gloves for every purpose.

How to Make Your Gloves Last Longer: Care Tips

Proper care ensures your gloves remain in good condition and ready for use. Here are some tips:

• Cleaning: Regularly wash washable gloves to remove dirt and bacteria.
• Drying: Allow gloves to air dry to preserve the material.
• Storage: Store in a dry, shaded area to avoid material damage.

Proper care extends the life of your gloves and ensures hygienic and reliable use.

What to Consider When Buying Protective Gloves

When purchasing protective gloves, keep the following points in mind:

1. DIN standards and certifications: Look for safety standards like EN 388 (protection against mechanical risks) or EN 407 (heat protection).
2. Fit: Gloves that are too tight restrict movement, while oversized gloves reduce control.
3. Material: Choose the material that suits the task – for instance, leather for gardening or cut-resistant fabrics for kitchen and industrial work.

Finding the Right Glove Size – Here’s How

The fit is crucial for comfort and protection. Measure the circumference of your hand at its widest point (excluding the thumb) and use the following sizes as a guide:

• S (6-7): Small hands, often women
• M (8-9): Average hand size
• L (10-11): Large hands

At Heros Hygiene, gloves are available in various sizes to ensure everyone finds the perfect fit.
