Does anyone know of anywhere that sells cut proof gloves in sizes <7? Ideally Kevlar woven as the chain mail ones arent suitable. It seems that none of our regular suppliers (arco, seton) have any.

Obviously this is causing problems for some of the women who have smaller hands in that we cant provide them with suitable PPE.

The task is they are needed for is changing disc/rotary blades on a Multivac sealer.

I think you will find size 7 is about the smallest size around. The Ansell Edmont goldknit range of CR gloves start at this point - they do tend to be on the small size though to allow for the stretch of the fabric.

View them on

Hi

I'm not sure of the sizing, but I got the type you are looking for from The Cutter company. 07703108700 or 01628 523866.
They even sent me a free sample.
Linda.
