Ansell AlphaTec 87-190 Econohands Rubber Gloves Yellow (12 Pack)

Delivery Information
Price Match
The Ansell AlphaTec 87-190 is a natural rubber latex glove designed for light-duty tasks including cleaning, general maintenance, and janitorial duties. The ultra-thin construction preserves a good level of tactile sensitivity, which is useful when handling items where feel matters — rinsing equipment, wiping surfaces, or working with smaller components during a clean-down.
In a commercial kitchen environment, these gloves are well suited to routine cleaning tasks: washing down surfaces, handling cleaning chemicals during close-down, and general light housekeeping. The cotton flock lining helps with comfort during longer periods of wear and absorbs moisture, which reduces fatigue on staff carrying out extended cleaning shifts. The fish-scale grip pattern on the palm provides reliable hold on wet or smooth surfaces — a practical consideration when working around sinks and wet preparation areas.
A few practical points worth noting:
- Chlorination treatment reduces residual latex proteins, lowering the risk of sensitivity reactions in most users
- Cotton flock lining improves comfort and moisture management during extended wear
- Fish-scale palm grip supports control when handling wet or smooth surfaces
- Certified to EN 388:2016 Category III for minimal-risk applications
- Supplied as a 12-pack, suited to ongoing stock replenishment
These are light-duty gloves. They are not intended for heavy chemical handling, thermal protection, or tasks requiring cut resistance. If your kitchen requires gloves for higher-risk applications — such as handling stronger chemical concentrations or hot materials — a heavier-duty specification would be more appropriate.
Available in sizes S, M, L and XL, each supplied as a pack of 12. Select your size from the drop-down menu.
If you are unsure which glove specification best suits your kitchen's cleaning and safety requirements, the team is happy to help you work through the options.
Frequently asked questions
Are these gloves suitable for handling commercial cleaning chemicals?
The AlphaTec 87-190 is designed for light-duty cleaning and janitorial tasks and is suitable for use with mild cleaning agents. For stronger chemical concentrations — such as concentrated degreasers or high-pH detergents — a glove with a thicker chemical-resistant construction would be more appropriate. If you are unsure, it is worth checking the chemical compatibility requirements for the products your kitchen uses.
Are these gloves appropriate for staff with latex sensitivities?
The chlorination treatment used in these gloves reduces residual latex protein levels, which lowers the risk of reactions for many users. However, they are manufactured from natural rubber latex and are not suitable for anyone with a confirmed latex allergy. In that situation, a nitrile or vinyl alternative would be a safer choice.
How many pairs are included in a pack, and is this suitable for a small kitchen team?
Each pack contains 12 gloves. For a small kitchen team carrying out routine daily cleaning, a single pack will typically provide a short-term supply depending on frequency of use and whether gloves are single-use or reused across shifts. Higher-volume sites or those with larger cleaning teams may find it more practical to order in greater quantities.
