Disposable Nitrile Gloves Powder-Free Size S - 100 pcs (Carton of 10 Packs)

Powder-free disposable nitrile gloves size S

Powder-free disposable nitrile gloves in size S are professional protective devices for kitchens, pastry labs and food businesses. Box of 100 pieces, carton of 10 boxes (1,000 gloves). Certified CE 0197, EN ISO 374-1:2016 Type C for chemical protection and EN ISO 374-5:2016 for resistance to bacteria and fungi, they are ambidextrous, non-sterile and food-contact compliant. The powder-free version and textured grip make them the standard for safe food handling.

What nitrile is and why to choose it

Nitrile is a synthetic rubber (a copolymer of acrylonitrile and butadiene) introduced into professional gloves from the 1990s as an alternative to natural latex. Unlike latex, it is free of the proteins responsible for type I allergies, offers markedly higher mechanical and chemical resistance and very low permeability to oils and fats. This is why it is today the reference material in professional kitchens, where contact with fats, acids and detergents is constant.

Technical features

Made of synthetic nitrile, these gloves are completely free of lubricating powder (powder-free), an essential feature to avoid releasing residues onto food and work surfaces. The textured fingertip surface ensures a secure grip even on wet or slippery ingredients, while the calibrated thickness provides tactile sensitivity without sacrificing tear and puncture resistance.

Certifications and compliance

The product carries the CE 0197 mark and complies with EN ISO 374-1:2016 Type C, certifying protection against certain chemicals, and EN ISO 374-5:2016 on protection from micro-organisms (bacteria and fungi). The gloves are declared suitable for food contact under Reg. EU 1935/2004, an indispensable requirement in HACCP operations. Possible residual allergens from the manufacturing materials may be present.

Uses in professional kitchens

Nitrile gloves are a daily tool in every HACCP kitchen. Among the most common uses: plating and finishing hot and cold dishes, handling and portioning raw meat and fish, preparing gelato and bases in ice-cream making, working dough in baking and pastry, sanitising equipment and cleaning surfaces in contact with detergents. Size S suits small hands, ensuring precision in detailed tasks such as cake decorating or gourmet plating.

Usage and HACCP good practices

Put the gloves on clean, dry hands. Replace them at every change of task (for example moving from raw to cooked food) and whenever work is interrupted, in line with HACCP self-monitoring principles. Disposable gloves do not replace hand washing but complement it. Dispose of after use. Do not wash or reuse.

Storage

Store the boxes in a dry place at controlled room temperature (15-22 degrees C), away from heat sources, ozone and direct sunlight, which can degrade nitrile over time. Keep the box sealed until use. Under these conditions the gloves retain their mechanical and protective properties throughout the shelf life stated on the pack.

Who it is for
