Mapa Krytech 838 Cut Resistant Gloves (Pair)
£13.65(£16.38 inc VAT)
Delivery Information
Price Match
The Mapa Krytech 838 is a cut resistant protective glove designed specifically for food industry use. The long-cuff construction extends coverage beyond the wrist to offer additional forearm protection — a practical feature when working with blades, mandolines, or other sharp-edged equipment during prep.
In a busy kitchen environment, gloves need to hold up through repeated use and regular cleaning cycles without deteriorating quickly. The Krytech 838 is washable at 90°C for up to 20 cycles, which makes it straightforward to maintain hygiene standards without running through pairs frequently. The silicone-free construction is worth noting for food preparation contexts where silicone contamination is a concern.
- Long-cuff design provides forearm coverage beyond standard glove length
- Silicone-free construction suitable for direct food contact environments
- Washable at 90°C, supporting commercial hygiene and laundering routines
- Rated for cut resistance, reducing injury risk during prep work
These gloves are well suited to prep kitchens, butchery, fish preparation, and any role involving regular handling of sharp equipment. They are available in sizes 6 (Small), 7 (Medium), and 8 (Large) — selecting the correct fit is important both for comfort and for maintaining the protective properties of the glove. A glove that is too loose can bunch and reduce dexterity; one that is too tight may limit movement and wear more quickly.
If you are outfitting a team and need guidance on sizing or volume requirements, we are happy to help you work through the options.
Frequently asked questions
How do I choose the right glove size for kitchen prep staff?
The Krytech 838 is available in sizes 6 (Small), 7 (Medium), and 8 (Large). A properly fitted glove is important — too loose and the cut resistant layer can shift during use, reducing protection; too tight and the glove restricts movement and wears faster. If staff are between sizes, it is generally better to size up slightly for comfort during extended prep sessions.
Are these gloves suitable for use in HACCP-controlled kitchens?
The silicone-free construction and washability at 90°C make the Krytech 838 a practical choice for HACCP environments where contamination control and documented cleaning procedures are required. We would recommend checking your specific HACCP plan requirements and confirming suitability with your food safety adviser if you have any doubt.
How many wash cycles can these gloves withstand before they need replacing?
Mapa rates the Krytech 838 for up to 20 wash cycles at 90°C. In practice, the rate at which performance degrades will depend on the intensity of use between washes and the washing process itself. Inspecting gloves regularly for signs of wear, particularly around the cut resistant panels and seams, is good practice regardless of cycle count.
