### Choosing the best materials for your requirement

Searching for leather work gloves? Leather is a durable material that is also flexible, it creates puncture resistant gloves that protect against abrasions without sacrificing the dexterity needed to perform intricate tasks.

Leather is a favourable material for numerous applications and is frequently combined with liners or coatings of other materials to extend its suitability.

Rubber work gloves are manufactured using one or more synthetic rubbers. These flexible materials are impervious to liquids and oils and can be formulated to resist corrosion from industrial substances. As chemical resistant gloves, they are favoured by industries that require personnel to work with hazardous chemicals.

Textiles are commonly utilised in glove liners, where they enhance the comfort of gloves. Where textiles feature as the primary composite of the glove, they offer a dexterous design that can be easily coated to provide additional functions.

### Safety gloves for construction, electrical, and maintenance work
