Product Overview
The Grip C13 Nitrile Foam Extend Cuff Glove is a high-performance solution designed for professionals working within the chemical, oil, and food industries. This glove offers a sophisticated balance of protection and dexterity, featuring Level C cut resistance to safeguard against sharp materials. With its CE food-safe certification, it meets the rigorous hygiene standards required for food preparation and processing, making it a versatile asset for a range of demanding work environments.
Key Features
- Level C Cut Resistance: This provides a vital layer of protection against sharp edges and materials, significantly reducing the risk of lacerations in high-risk environments.
- CE Food-Safe Certification: Validates that the materials used are safe for contact with food, ensuring compliance with health and safety regulations in culinary and processing sectors.
- Nitrile Foam Coating: The washed foam nitrile finish delivers exceptional grip, even when handling oily or wet items, which is essential for maintaining control and safety.
- Contact Heat Protection: Capable of withstanding contact heat up to 100°C, these gloves allow for the safe handling of warm components or containers during short-term contact.
- 13-Gauge Seamless Liner: The lightweight, breathable construction ensures the wearer remains comfortable throughout the day, preventing overheating during intensive tasks.
Design & Performance
Engineered with a 13-gauge liner that incorporates HPPE and glass fibre, the glove provides substantial strength without the bulk typically associated with high-protection handwear. The full hand coating of washed foam nitrile extends the protective barrier across the entire hand, ensuring that no area is left vulnerable to splashes or abrasions. This coating is specifically treated to be soft and flexible, allowing for the precise movements required in mechanical or food-related tasks. The extended cuff provides additional protection to the wrist area, ensuring a secure fit that stays in place during active use.
Why No Customisation?
We do not offer customisation, such as embroidery or printing, on this particular product to ensure your safety remains uncompromised. This glove is a piece of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) designed with a specific cut-resistant barrier and food-safe properties. Puncturing the fabric with embroidery needles would create weak points in the Level C protection and could also trap bacteria, which is unacceptable in food-safe environments. To maintain the integrity of the safety certifications, these gloves are sold in their original, tested form.
Use Cases
These gloves are ideally suited for staff working in industrial kitchens and food processing plants where sharp knives and hygiene are daily priorities. They are equally effective for engineers and technicians in the oil and chemical industries who require a reliable grip on slippery components while protecting against minor heat and mechanical risks. They are also a sensible choice for general assembly work involving sharp metal parts where manual dexterity is still required.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, ensure a snug fit. A glove that is too loose will reduce your dexterity and may catch on machinery, while one that is too tight can cause hand fatigue. Given the extended cuff design, ensure it sits flat against your forearm or is tucked neatly under your sleeve to prevent debris from entering the glove during work.
Caring for your product
Maintaining your gloves correctly is essential to ensure they continue to provide the advertised level of protection and grip. Over time, the build-up of oils or chemicals can degrade the nitrile coating, so regular inspection for signs of wear, thinning, or damage is highly recommended to ensure your safety is never compromised.
If the gloves become soiled, they should be cleaned according to standard safety protocols for your specific industry. It is important to avoid using harsh bleaching agents, as these can weaken the glass fibre and HPPE components of the liner. Similarly, avoiding high-heat drying is advisable, as excessive heat can cause the nitrile foam to harden or crack, which would compromise the flexibility and grip that are central to the glove's performance.
