Work Gloves - Safety and Protection
Marine work gloves provide hand protection during shipboard maintenance, cargo handling, welding, machinery work, and repair operations. Selection depends on hazards such as abrasion, cuts, impacts, chemicals, heat, cold, oil, and reduced grip.
ProShipWorks provides end-to-end support to source and supply Work Gloves for marine vessels, ship operators, industrial facilities, maintenance teams and procurement departments.

| Class Approval | General-purpose work gloves are normally not individually approved by DNV, ABS, Lloyd's Register, BV, or ClassNK. Certain specialized protective gloves may require applicable flag-state, MED, PPE Regulation (EU) 2016/425, or project-specific acceptance. |
Installation, Maintenance & Safety Information
| Installation Notes | Select the correct size and protection rating for the task. Inspect gloves before use, ensure they fit securely, and do not use gloves near rotating machinery where entanglement is possible. |

| Maintenance Tips | Keep gloves clean and dry according to the manufacturer's instructions. Inspect regularly for cuts, abrasion, chemical damage, hardening, or loss of grip, and replace damaged or contaminated gloves. |
| Safety Notes | Use task-specific gloves and do not rely on general-purpose gloves for welding, high voltage, severe chemicals, or high-temperature work. Gloves are not suitable for rotating equipment if they can become entangled. Follow the vessel's PPE procedures and safety data sheets. |
