Product Overview
The GP Grip Nitrile Micro Foam Dotted Glove is a precision-engineered solution for professionals who require a balance between protection and high dexterity. Designed with a fine-knit construction, these gloves allow for tactile sensitivity while maintaining a robust barrier against workplace hazards. Whether you are navigating oily components or handling dry materials, the micro-foam coating provides a reliable grip that ensures every movement is controlled and secure.
Key Features
- The ergonomic design is specifically tailored to mirror the natural curvature of the hand, which significantly reduces muscle fatigue during extended periods of use.
- By utilizing a nitrile micro-foam coating with integrated dots, these gloves offer superior grip and abrasion resistance in dry, wet, or oily conditions.
- Dermatological testing ensures the materials are skin-friendly, meaning you can wear them all day without the discomfort or irritation often associated with lower-quality hand protection.
- The OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100 certification guarantees that the product is free from harmful substances, making it a safe choice for sensitive skin and those prone to allergies.
Design & Performance
Constructed from a blend of nylon and latex-free elastane, the shell of this glove provides exceptional flexibility and a 'second-skin' fit. The lightweight, breathable nature of the fabric ensures that heat is managed effectively, preventing the build-up of moisture inside the glove. This is particularly beneficial for high-intensity tasks where hand temperature can rise quickly.
The performance is further enhanced by the micro-foam nitrile coating. Unlike solid coatings, this foam structure allows for better breathability and flexibility without sacrificing protection against oils and liquids. The added dots on the palm and fingers provide extra traction, ensuring that even the smallest components are handled with precision.
Why No Customisation?
As a piece of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), these gloves are engineered to meet specific safety standards that ensure your protection. Applying custom embroidery or heat-applied prints would compromise the structural integrity of the fine-knit fabric and the chemical properties of the nitrile coating. To ensure the gloves perform exactly as intended by the manufacturer, we provide them in their original, unadulterated state.
Use Cases
These gloves are ideal for professionals working in precision engineering, automotive assembly, and general maintenance. They are particularly effective for those who frequently handle oily or wet parts, where a slip could result in error or injury. They are also highly suitable for warehouse staff who require consistent grip for picking and packing tasks throughout a full shift.

We understand that hand protection is not just about safety; it is about the comfort and confidence of your workforce.
Practical Advice
To ensure maximum dexterity, it is essential to choose the correct size. A glove that is too large will result in a loss of tactile feel, while one that is too small can restrict movement and cause premature wear. We recommend assessing the specific environment—if you are working in exceptionally oily conditions, ensure the gloves are kept clean to maintain the effectiveness of the micro-foam grip.
Caring for your product
Maintaining your hand protection is vital to ensure the materials continue to offer the intended level of safety and grip performance. Over time, the build-up of oils and dirt can degrade the nitrile coating, so periodic cleaning is necessary to prolong the life of the glove.
We recommend a gentle wash to remove surface contaminants. Avoid using harsh chemical bleaches, as these will break down the synthetic fibres and the nitrile coating, leading to a loss of elasticity and protection. Allowing the gloves to air dry naturally is preferable; high heat from tumble drying can cause the elastane to become brittle, which reduces the snug fit required for precision tasks.
