PACKS PROTECT CLEAN HANDS GLOVES

Description

Packs Protect Clean Hands Gloves are essential PPE for any grower working with nutrient concentrates, pesticides, propagation media, and plant material in the grow room or garden. We have been recommending quality protective gloves to UK growers since 2017 as non-negotiable safety equipment for anyone handling chemicals, biologicals, or allergens in their growing environment. These clean hands gloves provide a protective barrier between skin and the substances you work with daily.

Why Protective Gloves Are Non-Negotiable in the Grow Room

Nutrient concentrates, pesticide solutions, rooting gels, and foliar sprays contain active ingredients that should not come into prolonged or repeated contact with skin. Chelated mineral nutrients, particularly those containing iron, manganese, and zinc chelates, can cause skin irritation and staining with repeated exposure. Pesticide concentrates including pyrethrum, miticides, and fungicides carry specific PPE requirements on their safety data sheets, and failure to wear gloves when mixing or applying these products is both a health risk and a breach of safe use guidelines. Beyond chemical safety, gloves protect your plants from the natural oils and bacteria on human skin that can transfer to cuttings and open wounds during propagation work, and reduce the risk of contaminating sterile growing environments. The Packs Protect Clean Hands Gloves are designed for the grip, dexterity, and chemical resistance needed for all of these grow room tasks.

How to Use and Dispose of Clean Hands Gloves

Put gloves on before handling any chemical product, nutrient concentrate, pesticide, or propagation material. Ensure the gloves extend past the wrist to protect against drips when pouring concentrates. After use, carefully remove by peeling from the wrist to avoid cross-contamination of your hands from the outer surface. Dispose of single-use gloves in accordance with the waste guidelines for the substances they have contacted — pesticide-contaminated gloves should not be placed in general waste. Keep a supply of gloves readily accessible near your nutrient mixing area, propagation station, and pest control equipment for easy access whenever needed.
