Portwest Micro Foam Nitrile Work Gloves (12 pairs) AP12
When you're working in roles that demand precision and protection, these work gloves deliver on both fronts. The Portwest SG NPR18 Micro Foam Work Gloves come as a pack of 12 pairs, making them ideal for professionals who need reliable hand protection across manufacturing, painting, electronics and glass processing environments. Built from recycled plastic bottles, the 15 gauge knit construction strikes that perfect balance between flexibility and durability, so your hands stay responsive even during detailed tasks. The micro foam nitrile coating wraps around your fingers with a thin profile, preserving the sensitivity you need whilst offering exceptional grip in both wet and dry conditions. An antimicrobial finish kills 99.9% of bacteria, keeping your hands fresher throughout the working day. These gloves handle contact heat up to 100°C and are completely silicone-free, making them the go-to choice for applications where silicones cause problems. The index and thumb fingers are touchscreen compatible, meaning you can use most mobile devices without removing them. OEKO-TEX approved and CE certified for food safety too.

Recommendations from our Unishore Expert
You've chosen a glove that takes hand protection seriously without compromising on feel. The thin coating means you won't lose tactile feedback when handling delicate components or intricate assembly work. They're particularly well-suited if you're moving between different tasks throughout your shift, as the breathable structure keeps moisture at bay and prevents that clammy feeling. The grip texture performs reliably whether your hands are wet or dry, which matters more than you'd think on a busy production floor. If you're working in environments where chemical resistance is key, these deliver solid protection across oils, fuels and various solvents. The extended cuff provides decent coverage at the wrist, and the slightly tapered fit around the palm means less bunching and more control. For anyone working with electronics or glass where silicone contamination is a real concern, this is genuinely your best option.
