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.

Painting surface

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.

Reasons why Oilbloc™ gloves are superior

When working with lubricants, such as oils and greases, it is important to wear safety gloves that not only protect against oil spilling but also allow you to maintain a good grip. Oil and grease are present in a variety of industries, so oil-resistant gloves might be essential for your workplace.

Lubricants can pose various hazards. Prolonged exposure to certain lubricants might result in a variety of skin issues. Contact with hot oils may lead to burns. Plus, when spilt on floors, materials or any other surfaces, oil and grease spills might lead to fire, fall and slippage hazards.

As a distributor for Superior Glove in the UK and Ireland, Dawnthrive Ltd supplies a variety of safety gloves by Superior Glove, including Oilbloc™ gloves, top-performing safety work gloves that provide high oil resistance. However, what makes Oilbloc™ gloves top-performing gloves and different from the competition?

What is Oilbloc™?

Oilbloc™ is a treatment applied to gloves during the tanning process. This makes the oil-resistant treatment part of the glove itself as opposed to other oil-resistant treatments, usually in spray form, that are applied to gloves at the end of the manufacturing process.

What are the benefits of Oilbloc™ gloves?

Oilbloc™ gloves offer better protection against oil and increased grip in oily environments. According to Superior Glove’s internal grip tests, gloves treated with Oilbloc™ deliver 34% more grip force in oily conditions than competitive gloves. Plus, Oilbloc™ gloves are also resistant to water penetration.

Superior glove guide: how to choose the right work glove

Hands are used every day to perform all kinds of tasks in the workplace. We could go as far as saying that hands are the most used tools in the workplace. No matter the industry, environment or workplace, hands are essential. So, protecting employees’ hands is of the utmost importance.

According to Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations (RIDDOR) data, during 2020/21, an estimated 441,000 workers sustained non-fatal injuries according to self-reports. Of these workplace injuries, the most commonly injured part of the body is the upper limb area, including fingers, thumbs, wrists and rest of the arm. RIDDOR reports 26,139 injuries, 23% of workplace injuries, affecting these areas. These injuries include 7,579 injuries to one or more fingers, 4,677 injuries to hands and 4,814 injuries to wrists.

How to choose the right glove

Gloves should comfortably fit the employee and suit the type of job they are performing whilst keeping them safe from any injuries that might happen. When selecting safety gloves, it is important to consider the person wearing them and the environment they work in. For instance, the Health and Safety Executive mentions that when working with harmful substances, you should consider the following factors:

  • Identify the substances handled.
  • Identify all other hazards.
  • Consider the type and duration of contact.
  • Consider the user (size and comfort).
  • Consider the task.

Consider workplace hazards

Work gloves should be chosen in line with the hazards present at the workplace. Is the wearer working in cold temperatures? Is the wearer dealing with chemicals? Is the wearer working with sharp objects? Is the wearer working closely with electrical circuits? Determine all the hazards in the workplace to narrow down the options for the right glove for the job.

Consider workplace efficiency

Besides offering protection, some work gloves can also improve performance by improving grip and more. Dexterity, glove thickness and size are all important factors to consider when selecting the right glove. Once all of these factors have been considered, you will be able to pick the appropriate glove for the task.
