Work Gloves & Hand Protection

Choosing the Right Work Gloves for the Job

When it comes to workplace safety, selecting the correct work gloves is essential. Different industries require different levels of protection, whether you’re handling tools on a building site, working in a warehouse, or managing materials in manufacturing. Our collection includes general handling gloves, heavy duty safety gloves, and specialist protective gloves to reduce the risk of cuts, abrasions and punctures.

All of our safety work gloves comply with relevant EN standards, including EN388 for mechanical protection. This certification measures resistance to abrasion, cut, tear and puncture, helping employers choose gloves suited to the hazards their teams face daily. From lightweight grip gloves for precision handling to reinforced cut resistant gloves for high-risk environments, we stock solutions for every application.

For construction and trade professionals, coated grip gloves remain one of the most popular options. Latex, nitrile and PU coated work gloves provide excellent control when handling bricks, timber, tools and metal components. These breathable designs reduce hand fatigue while maintaining flexibility, making them ideal for long shifts.

If you require protection from harsh weather or wet conditions, we also stock thermal work gloves and waterproof work gloves. These designs help retain warmth in cold environments while offering enhanced grip in damp or oily conditions. For specialist tasks, our range includes impact gloves, chemical resistant gauntlets and heavy duty industrial gloves.

Disposable gloves are also available in latex, nitrile and vinyl for hygiene-critical environments. Whether powdered or powder-free, these gloves offer practical short-term protection in food handling, cleaning, maintenance and laboratory settings.

Active Workwear supplies trusted brands including Beeswift, Portwest, Ansell and Snickers, ensuring dependable quality at competitive trade pricing. Whether you’re purchasing single packs or bulk cartons, our work gloves range provides cost-effective hand protection built for real-world performance.
