Most brands offer a variety of gloves made of different materials to provide suitable gloves based on your needs and risks. Choosing the right material means that your gloves will last for a long time and meet their purpose well. Common glove materials include:
Bamboo. This natural fiber has high breathability and can keep hands cool even when working in warm environments. Bamboo gloves are suitable for most gardening and light manual work.
Cotton. Cotton gloves are suitable for beginners or leisure gardeners. However, this material cannot resist excess soil exposure, so if you plan on manual cultivation, you may need a second pair.
Leather. Natural or processed leather is usually the preferred material for heavy-duty work gloves.
Nitrile. Nitrile is composed of knitted materials coated with liquid rubber. Nitrile gloves are suitable for enhancing your grip, but due to their relatively thin material, they are mainly used for lighter tasks.
Rubber. When you need waterproof or chemical resistant gloves, high-quality rubber is suitable. However, rubber gloves reduce flexibility and therefore cannot be used for precision machining.
If you perform many different work tasks, you may need more than one pair of gloves to protect your hands.
If possible, try several glove options before making a decision. Your gloves feel natural on your hands, with little space around your fingertips, palms, or wrists
Gloves that are suitable in size can be used safely and provide good overall protection while you work. Using these guidelines can provide important basic protection for oneself at work. Search for high-quality work gloves and other items from Central Farm and Garden.
