How to Choose the Right Kitchen Gloves?
Apart from this, selection is also crucial. A suitable kitchen glove can greatly assist in your tasks. So, how do you choose a seemingly appropriate kitchen glove? Aibon summarizes the following elements for your reference:
- Firstly, choose the material of the glove according to your needs: Different uses require different functionalities of gloves, and accordingly, the materials of gloves vary.
- The size and fit of the glove are also crucial: The size of the glove is very important. Too long or too short, too large or too small, none of these are suitable. To avoid accidents, we should choose gloves that fit our hands well.
- The quality of the glove: To ensure that the glove can be used for a long time without being easily damaged or needing frequent replacement, choosing a high-quality glove is our only option. But how do we determine the quality of the glove? It is best to obtain samples of the glove for testing. This is easily done for Aibon; we can provide samples for you to test free of charge. Additionally, certifications and relevant tests from institutions such as the common CE and EN388 certificates can also verify the quality of the glove.
