MAX Heavy Duty Polyester Latex Grip Gloves – Orange Crinkle Builders Glove – EN388 Certified

Product Name

MAX Heavy Duty Polyester Latex Grip Gloves – Orange Crinkle Builders Glove – EN388 Certified

Overview

MAX Heavy Duty Polyester Latex Grip Gloves are designed for general handling work across UK construction, maintenance, and trade environments where grip performance and durability are required.

The orange crinkle latex palm coating provides a high-traction contact surface, supporting safer handling of bricks, blocks, timber, scaffold components, and other abrasive materials in both wet and dry conditions.

A breathable knitted back and elasticated wrist cuff support comfort during long shifts and help reduce debris entry during active site work.

Who Is This For?

• Bricklayers and groundworkers handling blocks and bricks where grip reduces slips, drops, and repetitive strain.
• Scaffolding teams moving tubes, boards, and fittings where secure handling reduces pinch risk and improves control.
• General contractors performing day-to-day material handling, site setup, and strip-out work where a dependable glove supports productivity.
• Maintenance teams carrying out general repair tasks where flexibility and comfort are needed across varied work conditions.
• Procurement teams specifying a consistent glove across multiple UK sites to reduce substitutions and sizing issues.

How to Specify & Use on Site

How to specify: Specify the correct size for a close but comfortable fit, confirm EN388:2016 + A1:2018 rating for mechanical handling tasks, and select crinkle latex coating where grip performance is required on rough or uneven surfaces.

How to use: Before use, inspect the palm coating and liner for tears or damage; ensure the elasticated cuff sits securely at the wrist; and replace gloves once grip or coating integrity has deteriorated.

• Not designed as cut-resistant gloves for sharp edge work.
• Not intended for chemical handling or solvent exposure.
• Allow gloves to dry naturally after wet use to maintain comfort and reduce premature wear.

Competitive Advantages

The combination of a durable polyester liner and crinkle latex palm coating supports predictable performance for everyday construction handling tasks, helping reduce glove changes and improving grip consistency across mixed site environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are these gloves suitable for general construction site handling?
Yes. They are designed for brickwork, scaffolding support tasks, and general material handling where grip and durability are required.

Do these gloves provide protection against sharp cuts?
No. While they provide mechanical handling protection under EN388, they are not designed as specialist cut-resistant gloves for sharp edge materials.

Are they suitable for wet conditions?
Yes. The orange crinkle latex coating is designed to provide grip in both wet and dry handling environments commonly found on UK construction sites.

What does the EN388 rating 2243X mean?
It refers to the glove’s mechanical protection performance for abrasion, cut, tear, and puncture resistance under EN388:2016 + A1:2018 testing. This supports defensible PPE selection for general handling tasks.

How should procurement teams order these gloves?
Order by size-specific variation code to reduce incorrect issue and minimise returns. The minimum order quantity is 12 pairs per size, supporting bulk site distribution.

When should gloves be replaced?
Replace when the latex coating becomes smooth, torn, or worn through, or when the liner integrity is compromised. Continued use beyond this point can reduce grip control and increase handling risk.
