Who Can Use THis Chainmail Glove?

The Honeywell Chainextra Butchers Glove With Cuff is suitable for use within the food processing industry, and is of particular benefit when dealing with knives, cutting or punching tools. The glove is also suitable for a wider range of activities which involves the use of cutting tools, although please check with us before proceeding with any activity outside of food processing. The glove can be used in the following areas:

• Food Industries.
• Meat & Poultry Processing. 
• Butchery.
• Oyster Shucking. 

Unlike the standard Chainmail Glove, this glove arrives with a short cuff offering the user increased protection for the wrist area. With an emphasis on protection and durability the chainmesh of this glove significantly reduces the number of repairs compared with what is generally recorded on the market. 

Butchery

When working within the field of butchery it is essential that you maintain good levels of hand & arm protection. Unlike the poultry industry which often gets overlapped with butchery you will most likely require protection which is greater than just the hand area. We always stress that you should offer your employees and yourself the highest level of protection and that is why we have offered the longest chainmail glove with cuff protection for this industry, the other alternative would be a sleeve although this may limit arm movement when cutting. 

The knife yielding hand should be covered by a glove offering cut protection to a high standard, the non-yielding hand should then be covered with the Butchers Glove in order to protect yourself when slashing and cutting. Knives within the butchery industry tend to be larger than your standard poultry knife and as a result the protection of arteries within the arm is key as an accident to this part of the arm can be fatal. We would therefore suggest the Honeywell Chainextra Butchers Glove With Cuff as a good solution to those working within meat processing as the length of glove is a crucial factor here. 

As with all gloves it is suggested you opt for the highest level of protection, whilst Safety Gloves has offered this glove specific to the Butchery industry it is down to your HSE officer to establish which piece of PPE best suits your needs.
