Could anyone forward contact details of suppliers of Viton gloves in particular, i'm really struggling to find anyone.

Also Silver shield, Butyl, Polyethylene.

Finding nasties by the day and ERICPD is leading me to gloves.

Much ta

Gloves is something that I have spent a great deal of time on. One fact that many do not appreciate is that the manufacturers' published data do not reflect what you will achieve in practice. Equally, not all manufacturers test their gloves to the same standard of accuracy (variations of up to 50% were found in one study!).

If you need to know more, contact me direct. I can also put you in touch with the appropriate manufacturers.
