PRODUCT FEATURES
Are these Foodguard XP Poly Gloves safe for direct contact with food?
Yes, these embossed HDPE gloves are FDA and USDA approved for food handling applications. Their powder-free, hygienic design makes them ideal for restaurant kitchens, delis, bakeries, and other high-volume foodservice environments where cleanliness is essential.
Do the gloves contain any powder or coatings that could contaminate food?
No. Foodguard XP Poly Gloves are completely powder-free, eliminating the risk of powder transfer to food products while still allowing for quick, easy donning and removal.
How many gloves are included in one case?
Each case contains 500 medium-size gloves. The gloves are conveniently packed for easy dispensing, so staff can grab a new pair quickly during busy service periods.
Are these gloves suitable for users with latex allergies?
These gloves are made from high-density polyethylene (HDPE) and do not rely on natural rubber latex in their film. As a result, they are an excellent option for operations looking to minimize exposure to latex allergens.
Can these HDPE gloves be used for medical or examination purposes?
No. Foodguard XP Poly Gloves are classified as non-medical, light-duty gloves designed specifically for food handling, prep, and other low-risk tasks. They do not carry an ASTM or medical examination rating.
Are the gloves ambidextrous, or do they come in left- and right-handed versions?
The gloves are fully ambidextrous—each glove fits either the left or right hand—making inventory management simple and reducing waste in busy kitchens.
How durable are these gloves compared to vinyl or nitrile gloves?
Embossed HDPE gloves are intentionally lightweight for maximum dexterity and cost efficiency in high-turnover tasks such as sandwich assembly or buffet service. While they don’t offer the puncture resistance of thicker vinyl or nitrile gloves, their high-density polyethylene construction provides reliable barrier protection against foodborne contaminants during short, light-duty use.
What are the storage and shelf-life recommendations for these disposable gloves?
Store the gloves in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or excessive heat. Under proper storage conditions, HDPE gloves typically maintain their integrity for at least 3–5 years, ensuring you can keep a back-stock on hand without worrying about premature degradation.
