Black nitrile disposable gloves Reflexx 78 in size XL, supplied in a dispenser box of 100 pieces (carton of 10 boxes). Powder-free and 100% latex-free, 0.08 mm thick and 24 cm long, with a micro-textured finish that guarantees a secure grip even on wet or greasy surfaces. Approved for food contact (MOCA, Reg. EC 1935/2004 and Reg. EU 10/2011) and certified as PPE Category III, they are the professional benchmark for kitchens, pizzerias and HORECA hygiene.

What are Reflexx 78 nitrile gloves

Nitrile is a synthetic rubber (acrylonitrile-butadiene) that has replaced latex in professional foodservice because it is more resistant to punctures, oils and chemicals and does not trigger the latex protein allergies common among kitchen staff. The Reflexx 78 belongs to the medium-heavy line at 4.0 g (size M): thicker and more durable than ultra-thin examination gloves, yet sensitive enough for plating and detail work. The deep black colour, increasingly chosen across Swiss gastronomy, conceals stains from sauces, ink and dyes and projects a clean, contemporary image at the counter.

The manufacturer: Reflexx S.p.A.

Reflexx S.p.A. is based in Viadana, in the province of Mantua (Lombardy, Italy), and has specialised in professional disposable and reusable gloves for over twenty years. The company designs and develops every model in-house and manufactures it in partnership with leading facilities in the Far East, under a quality system certified to ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 13485:2016 (medical devices). Reflexx gloves are declared free from silicone, chromium, nickel, thiuram and gluten, reducing the risk of contact dermatitis.

Technical features

The model 78 is ambidextrous and powder-free, with an internal chlorinated treatment that makes it easy to don even with slightly damp hands. The micro-rough external texture increases grip and tactile sensitivity, while the 0.08 mm wall and 24 cm length protect the wrist during prolonged use. AQL is 1.5, the standard for medical-grade examination gloves.

Certifications and food contact

The Reflexx 78 carries multiple compliances: PPE Category III under EU Regulation 2016/425, EN ISO 374-1:2016 Type B for chemical protection, EN ISO 374-5:2016 against viruses, bacteria and fungi, and EN 455 parts 1-4 for medical use. For foodservice the decisive certification is MOCA food-contact suitability under Reg. EC 1935/2004 and Reg. EU 10/2011, which authorises handling of all food types, including fatty and acidic foods.

Professional uses

In the pizzeria they keep hands clean while stretching and dressing the dough and while portioning fior di latte and toppings. In the kitchen they are ideal for filleting fish, dressing tartare and carpaccio, plating raw preparations and handling cured meats and cheeses on the slicer. Behind the counter and in delicatessens they speed up service while protecting both operator and product. Beyond food, the black colour and chemical resistance make them popular with hairdressers, beauticians and tattoo studios, and for cleaning and sanitising tasks with detergents.

Pairings and complementary products

Complete your hygiene station by pairing the gloves with a hand-sanitising soap, a folded-towel paper dispenser and Z-fold or roll hand towels, so the operator can change gloves frequently and keep the HACCP routine consistent. For high-volume sites stock all sizes (S, M, L, XL) to fit every member of the brigade.

Storage

Store the boxes in a cool, dry place away from direct light and heat sources, which is enough to preserve the elasticity of the nitrile. No refrigeration is required: the product is an ambient dry good with a long commercial shelf life, perfect for stocking up at professional kitchens.
