Best gloves for painting
Painters and decorators are exposed to multiple hazards when painting. Even though most modern paints do not contain highly dangerous and poisonous pigments, such as arsenic and lead, some chemicals and pigments used in paints can still pose short-term and long-term risks to the health of painters and decorators. This includes:
– Skin irritation
– Eyes irritation
– Throat irritation
– Lung problems
– Effects on the nervous systems, liver and kidneys
– Cancer
According to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), “If not properly controlled, solvents within coatings can also create a serious immediate risk to you because they give off vapours. At high amounts, these vapours can cause headaches, drowsiness and even unconsciousness.”
These health risks highlight the importance of using personal protective equipment when painting and decorating interior and exterior spaces. Essential PPE when painting includes safety gloves, face masks and work coveralls.
Skin risks, such as the development of contact dermatitis and allergies, can be minimised and/or avoided by using safety gloves, also known as work gloves. As the only Superior Glove distributor in the UK and Ireland, we supply a wide range of high-quality safety gloves suitable for various applications, including painting and decorating.
Best painting gloves by Superior Glove
Superior Glove MLNF Painters Gloves
These painter’s gloves are lightweight, fully washable and made from lint-free nylon. These features make the MLNF painter’s gloves ideal for applications where dust or particles may pose a concern or when surfaces need to be protected from fingerprints, scratches and oils.
Superior Glove 14012GH Spray Painting Gloves
These spray painting gloves feature a continuous, conductive silver strip from the palm of the gloves to the edge of the gloves to keep the user grounded when holding a spray paint gun. This eliminates paint spray-back. These gloves are solvent-resistant, cleanroom-compatible and comfortable.
In addition to our safety gloves by Superior Glove, we also supply a variety of other hand protection equipment made by other high-quality brands, from Ejendals gloves to Ironclad gloves and more.

Fluid spill products to protect the environment
Spillages in the workplace can pose a threat to the health and safety of workers as well as potential harm to the environment. In a time where it is more important than ever to consider the impact of our actions on the environment, it is essential to understand the environmental effects that spillages pose.
Environmental impact of spillages.
Chemical spills and other fluid spills that runoff into waters can damage marine life as well as pollute the habitat and food sources of these animals and other living organisms. In addition to contaminating water, spilt fluids can also sink into the soil, causing ecological damage to flora and fauna. This damage caused by spillages can have long-term environmental effects, including making certain areas inhabitable.
How to minimise the impact of fluid spills.
Having a quick and safe spillage response plan will help minimise the impact of fluid spills. In Emergency Response/Spill Control, the Health and Safety Executive states the fundamental procedures for effective emergency response and spill control. This includes:
- Containing and controlling spillages to minimise the effects and limit the risks to people, the environment and property.
- Implementing measures to protect people and the environment.
- Creating a plan of action in the event of an emergency spill, describing the actions that should be taken.
- Staff training and more.
An important part of minimising the effects of spillages is to use the necessary spill control kits, personal protective equipment and personal decontamination equipment.
Are spill kits a legal requirement?
Spill control and containment equipment is a legal requirement for businesses that deal with potentially hazardous substances. General guidelines and regulations for businesses storing, transporting and using chemicals and other fluids can be found under the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) 2002 and Control Of Major Accident Hazards Regulations (COMAH) 2015.
What do spill kits contain?
Spills kits are designed to quickly and effectively clean spilt liquids. At Dawnthrive, we supply a variety of spill kits, from oil spill kits to chemical spill kits and water spill kits. Different spill kits will include specific equipment to suit the type of spill.

World’s first 21-gauge ANSI cut level 9 glove
Dexterity meets cut protection with Superior Glove’s new cut resistant gloves – TenActiv™ S21TXUFN. These are the world’s first 21-gauge gloves that can achieve ANSI Level A9 Cut Resistance with just 3.65mm thickness. These gloves have been knit with high-tenacity composite yarns featuring high-strength composite filament fibre for unbeatable cut resistance and dexterity.
What does glove gauge mean?
String knitted gloves are classified by gauge. The gauge of a glove indicates the number of knitting stitches or needles per square inch. The higher the number, the higher the number of stitches knitted per inch of glove. For instance, a 21-gauge glove has 21 stitches knitted per inch of glove whilst a 10-gauge glove has 10 stitches knitted per inch of glove.
Lower gauge gloves are heavier and offer less dexterity than higher gauge gloves. As high gauge gloves, the TenActiv™ 21-gauge ANSI 9 resistant gloves feature high dexterity and reduced hand fatigue.
What is the highest level of cut protection?
The highest level of cut protection is the ANSI A9 level. ANSI A9 gloves withstand 6,000g or more of cutting load. That is the weight (or more) required to cut through the material being tested. High levels of cut resistance are recommended for environments that are susceptible to extreme cut hazards, such as glass handling, metal stamping, sharp materials handling and sheet metal handling.
How is glove cut protection classified?
The level of glove cut protection is classified by the ANSI system. The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) identifies and develops standards, including the ANSI/ISEA 105-2016 standard which addresses the classification and testing of the performance of hand protection equipment, such as cut-resistance, puncture resistance, abrasion resistance and chemical protection.
| ANSI Level | A1 | A2 | A3 | A4 | A5 | A6 | A7 | A8 | A9 |
| Weight (in grams) needed to cut through material | ≥200 | ≥500 | ≥1000 | ≥1500 | ≥2200 | ≥3000 | ≥4000 | ≥5000 | ≥6000 |
The ANSI system has 9 levels of cut protection. These indicate how many grams of cutting load gloves can withstand a sharp blade before being pierced. The level of cut resistance ranges from 0 grams to 6,000 grams, based on tests by a Tomodynamometer (TDM Method) that moves a blade across the material.
Benefits of TenActiv™ S21TXUFN cut resistant gloves.
Puncture protection.
These gloves feature an ANSI level 3 puncture protection, meaning it withstands 60-99 newtons of penetrating force. This standard measures the resistance of hand protection to puncture by a pointed object.
Strong, steady grip.
With a nitrile palm coating, these gloves offer a strong and steady grip when handling lightly oiled parts. This strong grip will not slip when oil has been displaced on work surfaces.
High dexterity.
As ultra-thin and lightweight gloves, these offer a barehand feel and, in turn, high dexterity. These work gloves are suitable for a variety of applications, including
- Aerospace
- Automotive
- Manufacturing
- Metal fabrication
- Pulp and paper
Touchscreen compatible.
Use a work phone, tablet and other screens seamlessly as the nitrile-coated palms and fingers of these gloves are touchscreen compatible. No need to remove gloves. Effortlessly move between tasks with these touchscreen-compatible gloves.
Stronger than steel.
TenActiv™ gloves feature lint-free, high-tenacity continuous filament yarn that is stronger than steel on an equal-weight basis.
At Dawnthrive Ltd, we supply a wide range of work gloves by Superior Glove, from Superior Glove Endura to Superior Glove Oilbloc, as well as other safety gloves, such as cut resistant gloves and heat resistant gloves.
